MARK OF THE YEAR UP,UP AND A JAY Jay Neagle grabs the TRUenergy VFL Mark of the Year. Eighteen-year-old Jay Neagle has won the 2006 TRUenergy VFL Mark of the Year. Neagle, a father- son selection for Essendon in the 2005 AFL Draft, pulled down his screamer playing for the Bendigo Bombers against Tasmania in round seven (right). Four other marks were in contention for the honour, Jay Neagle with Neagle’s effort selected via a vote on the Bendigo Bombers TRUenergy website.

Aaron Edwards, the fi rst player in the VFA/VFL to win the Jim ‘Frosty’ Miller Medal and the J.J. Liston Trophy in the same season, may be lost to the TRUenergy VFL next year. Edwards has confi rmed that one AFL club – the Kangaroos – has already spoken to him, and that number is likely to increase signifi cantly in the weeks leading up to the AFL Draft. The 22-year-old, who dominated the VFL like few have in recent seasons, will also play in the VFL Under-23 North v South match in AFL Grand Final week. Frankston coach Brett Lovett expects that Edwards will be given the opportunity to re-launch the AFL career that stalled on four games after he was de-listed by the West Coast Eagles at the end of 2005. Edwards is hopeful that another AFL club will give him a chance to prove he can play at the elite level. “I think I have something to offer an AFL club,” Edwards said. “Brett helped me by playing me forward, after I played centre half-back with my team in the WAFL last year. “I want to play at the highest level, so hopefully someone will give me Edwards was surprised, that opportunity.
