Maroochydore’s Jack Gale and Mayne’s Caleb Brown were named joint winners of the Duncanson Medal as best and fairest for the QFA North competition.
The both polled in the last round to leapfrog Moreton Bay's Jacob Huisman a take home the award tied on 19 votes. The pair headed a long list of winners at the Queensland Football Awards at the Gabba tonight including a couple of other awards to Maroochydore servants.
Gale’s biggest asset in 2015 has been his ability to not only win his own footy, but put it on the scoreboard. The Roos’ midfielder enjoyed the opportunity to drift forward this season, kicking 36 goals in the home and away season to be the club's leading goalkicker.
In a tight count, Gale started slowly with Huisman skipping to an early lead which Gale slowly reeled in.
In the final round of voting Brown polled to take a 2 point lead however Gale's 4 goals in Maroochydore's final game against Moreton Bay secured himself two votes to tie with Brown.
Congratualtions must also go to Brown who, after a move from half-back to the midfield this year, has become a mercurial ball winner.
Fellow Maroochydore midefielders Josh Norman & Daniel Dzufer also polled well, both finishing in the top 10.
----------------------------------------------------
The night wasn’t all about the players, with acknowledgement of coaches and volunteers’ contribution to the game.
Coach of the Year awards went to Maroochydore’s Brett Maloney (QFA), Gympie’s Brett Forsyth, (QAFA) and Labrador’s Liam Burke.
The tiresome work of Maroochydore's Lisa Daldy resulted in her being awarded Colts Administrator of the Year; Rob Purves from Noosa was named AFL Queensland Volunteer of the Year and the Community Umpire of the Year award went to Ian Graeme.
The Queensland Football Awards celebrate the achievement of the players, officials and volunteers in the Queensland Football Assocation (South and North), Queensland Amateur A and B (South, Central, North) , Queensland Women’s Amateur Football Association and Colts (South and North) competitions.
