Who takes home your club's best and fairest? We make the call

Jack Riewoldt
It's set to be another thrilling count for the Jack Dyer Medal after another year of injuries to top players ruled out some of the usual suspects. Just four players have played every game, one of which being veteran forward Riewoldt. The 32-year-old has only been goalless once on his way to 48 majors, as well as averaging 11 disposals and five marks a game, and won a few games off his own boot. Shai Bolton tailed off in the second half of the year, while the Tigers' "Mr Fix It" in Liam Baker could be in for his best result ever and Jayden Short is a chance to go back-to-back.
Other contenders: Liam Baker, Jayden Short, Jack Graham, Shai Bolton
How they vote: Every player is awarded between zero and five votes after each match.

Honestly have no idea. So many players have had long patches of poor form this season. First half of the year you’d probably say Shai but don’t think he’ll poll much after the bye. If it wasn’t for his injury I think Nank would be a lock.
-
If you've played most games, you've got a fair chance! Jack Graham will be up there I reckon.

Jack Graham

Dylan Grimes

Tough one with so many players missing big Chunks of the season.
Probably Shai but his second half of the season has been ordinary.
-
Grimes
Bolton
Baker
In that order
-
Graham.
-
Grimes has had a very average year by his lofty standards... :shh

Agree. Whole backline has been out of form for the majority of the season. Although you can say the same about the midfield and forward line. Hard to know which ones to blame for which - prob all a result of each other.
-
Grimes has had a very average year by his lofty standards... :shh
Agree. Although it's not exactly a formidable field with our bnf this year.
I'll go with Fridge.
-
Bolton would've been favourite up to the bye but his form has dropped off since then.
I was critical of Baker for a few weeks there about a month ago but his form has returned since then playing different roles. He also had a good start to the year. So he'll be my guess to win our B&F.
Graham, Grimes and Jack to finish off the top 5.

A couple of shocks there.
Lynch in the top ten :help. Obviously the coaches are looking at something completely different to what I’m looking at.
Castagna 27 votes :lol :rollin
Well I guess I have no idea what he was trying to do :rollin

Nope
All 3 played 22 games and all were consistent across the entire season
Reckon if Nank had played the entire season he would won easily
-
Anyone who finished behind Castagna in the votes should be delisted.
-
Nowhere near Grimes' best year IMO but don't think anyone really deserved it this year tbh ...guess he at least deserves one for the career..... :shh

Congratulations to him. Well deserved. I am glad he won it because he has been such a good player for such a long time and deserves enormous credit. I agree with the comment that this season was not his best but he was reliable in a season where most things went wrong. I also agree with the comment that if Nank had not have got injured he would have been on track to win it.
-
Dan Rioli came home like a steam train
Well done to him in his new role
-
Well, if Martin didn't get injured, he probably would've won it and we would be playing finals I reckon ...
