Best Defensive Player: Kevin Lisch
They went Damo, he came second by five votes. Fifteen votes ahead of Mika in third.

So with the one player rule... Did Perth go Damo or Matty Knight... Matty has played more matches this year than in previous seasons and he is easily one of the best interior defenders in the keague

Ogilvy was unlucky to miss consideration due to the one player nomination. But I wonder if he might have taken votes away from Lisch. It's hard to predict how people might think in such a circumstance. Hypothetical anyway.

Only being able to nominate one player per team seems silly. Ogilvy likely would've finished third had he been eligible.

Damo is still the superior hacker, but the league took the opportunity of his missing so many games to give it to someone different, and I'm ok with that.

Lisch is the type of player you would point your under 12s to and say "play like that". Very deserving winner with strong fundamentals.
Damo is a great defender but IMO pushes the boundaries too far and gets away with a lot of contact that should be called fouls.
