LISTON TROPHY REVIEW J.J. LISTON TROPHY WINNERS It was a Liston Trophy night to remember, with three players sharing the Peter Jackson VFL’s premier individual award. TRIPLE dead-heats, let alone dead-heats, are a rarity in spending the previous two seasons on GWS’ list. any sport these days given technological advancement Clifton became the fi rst dual Liston Trophy winner in that can break down results to one-hundredth of second North Ballarat Football Club history. or a fl ared nostril of a horse or a greyhound. And, Clifton joined Alan Poore (1965/66), Laurie Hill It may have taken several minutes, but the judge was (1969/71), Vic AAnensen (1979/81), Billy Swan (1982/83), able to fi nd a margin to separate Dunaden and Red David Robbins (2000/03) and Shane Valenti (2010/11) as Cadeaux at the end of 2011 Melbourne Cup dual Liston Trophy winners.

Left to right, Hallahan, Schroder, Clifton. www.vfl .com.au 3 J.J. LISTON TROPHY REVIEW The stats Schroder – 11 games - played three games less than Hallahan and seven games less than Clifton, who played every game. Clifton polled in the most games – nine – where he collected three best-on-grounds, two sets of two and four single votes. Hallahan and Schroder received the same break-down of votes – four lots of three votes; two twos and one single. Interestingly, Hallahan did not poll a vote last season while Schroder gained one vote. TAC Cup pathway All three players are products of the TAC Cup. While Clifton came through the North Ballarat Rebels in 2005, Hallahan and Schroder, were both graduates from the 2010 year. Jordan Schroder Hallahan, a co-captain of Dandenong Stingrays with current Sydney Swan Luke Parker, was selected in the second round, No 38 overall, of the 2010 AFL Draft. Schroder, a member of the Calder Cannons 2010 premiership, was selected by Geelong in the third round, No 54 overall, of the 2010 AFL National Draft. Hallahan and Schroder both showcased their talent in the VFL this season to the point where they must be on the doorstep next year of playing regularly at AFL level. The vote count Without a clearly defi ned favorite, this year’s Liston Trophy was always there for the taking and that’s how the count panned out.

  • AFL VICTORIA RELEASE AFL Victoria Is Particularly Pleased to Again See
    AFL VICTORIA RELEASE AFL Victoria is particularly pleased to again see over half of the new talent selected in the NAB AFL Draft come from Victorian football. 36 Victorian players were selected in last night’s NAB AFL Draft, with 33 players recruited from the TAC Cup competition and three from the Peter Jackson VFL. Victorian community football and the talented player pathway produced 55% of new draftees while South Australia produced 21%, Western Australia 18%, Tasmania 5% and Queensland 1%. AFL Victoria General Manager Grant Williams believes the results reflect the strong talent development pathways in Victoria. “The NAB AFL Draft continues to highlight the variety of pathways in which talented players are being developed in Victoria, starting at a local community Club level and working their way up through the talented player pathway either via the TAC Cup or VFL competitions.” Victoria produced eight out of the first 10 draft selections, with Dandenong Southern Stingrays Lachie Whitfield becoming the eleventh number one pick from the TAC Cup competition in its 21 year history, and the fourth Dandenong top pick. Whitfield joined the likes of former Stingrays Jeff White (1994), Travis Johnstone (1997) and Tom Scully (2009) all of whom had their name read out first on AFL Draft night. “The TAC Cup competition continues to be the premier drafting ground for AFL footballers, with over 1,000 players having now been drafted over the 21 years of the competitions existence.” “Congratulations should go to each of AFL Victoria’s Talent Managers who manage quality programs in each of Victoria’s twelve regions that field teams in the TAC Cup competition.
