Congratulations to all winners. Each and every person should feel proud to receive an award that is deserved recognition of their contribution to Uni Blues. All except Charles, who must look to improve his sartorial efforts.

Particular congratulations must go to Joe Sturrock. A thoroughly well-deserved award. Joe has contributed to Uni Blues as a player (two time best and fairest), coach, runner, waterboy, committee member, umpire, treasurer, motivational speaker, role model and all-round good guy.

Kudos must also go to Ben McConnell who, aside from coming equal third in the B&F, organised an outstanding night that all attendees enjoyed.

Go Blues!
