Sunday 16/8/09 saw the counting of votes for the TDJFL 2009 Under 12 Best and Fairest. It was a thrilling count, with Churchills Damian Yates leading from the start of the count. As you can see from below, Damian held a 6 vote lead with 2 games to go. Connor Ambler from Combined Saints obviously caught the umpires attention in those last two games, as he picked up 3 votes in Round 13, and on the last card read for the final round, up he popped with another 3 votes to tie with Damian for the award.
It caps off a successful season for Damian, as he played a pivotal role as Vice Captain with the TDJFL Under 12 Interleague side that won, and also helped his side Churchill into the finals this season. Connor was Captain of the Under 12 Interleague side, and will be hoping to add to the trophy cabinet when his team play in the Under 12 TDJFL Grand Final.
The TDJFL congratulates both boys on a fantastic year and winning this award.
