Croft would have been an odds on favourite to win that award, and Garlick would have been second favourite. Henderson in third surprises me, but anyway he technically ends up being the Bees VFL best player given 1st and 2nd were Bulldogs listed.
Rob Castello had a terrific year in the 2s, and Dom Gleeson as best first year player was worthy as well. He became valuable in the centre with his clearance work.
