DOSA Football Best & Fairest
At the DOSA Football Club Best & Fairest Awards, held at the Carlyle Hotel on 22 September 2023, President Todd Curtain didn鈥檛 want to dwell on the disappointments of the 2023 season. 鈥楾here were some great games at the start of the year, and some unfortunate results and a cruel run of injuries that tested our depth, but there are a lot of exciting times ahead with this young group!鈥
Todd thanked all the sponsors, especially 色情直播, represented at the evening by Cameron Golding and Mark Dillon, and the Football Club Committee, the coaches, timekeeper and trainers, as well as the volunteers who run the canteen, the gate, and the bars.
鈥業 can confidently say that with the core group of players that we have, we are firmly in the window of opportunity for premiership success. The current playing list is as close knit as I鈥檝e seen for many years and as exciting as any young group we have had.鈥
Player milestones during the year included 450 games for Brendan Loveless, 150 games for Ben Griffin and 100 games for Aaron Grubb. Three new Life Members were also inducted during the evening, Matthew Harrison, Dave Bishop and our first female inductee, Sarah Curtain.
