Lewis would love it if Evan could justify how much it cost him to put Kostopolous on the back of his shirt

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
That's also a really good idea for future years keeping costs down, although it would also be nice to know the players get to take something home with them as a keep sake also. Maybe both?

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
Can someone explain what this is? I think I've got the gist that it's a trophy/momento given to the best AU player voted by the WATR forum?
Is this the first year you've done it.
If Eugene wins...I'd be happy to be trophy presenter!

I bet you would! I saw you're photos from last game. It was Euge, Euge and more Euge! Haha.Can someone explain what this is? I think I've got the gist that it's a trophy/momento given to the best AU player voted by the WATR forum?

Yes this is the first season we've done it.
I did it for the ACL (which Euge did in fact win!) and then kept it going for the HAL season. Happy to keep doing it for future ACL and HAL campaigns!
Time to Djbate!

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
Those are some fantastic sculptures kien, I'm happy for a wooden Adelaide United crest on a wooden base or something
Re: Fan's Player of the Year
I think it couldn't hurt to ask the sculptor for his ideas? He looks to have quite an imagination, so I'd start there
We need;
- To give the sculptor plenty of time
- A cost estimate, so we can start collating funds
- Ideas and to pick one.
Thoughts?
Kien, can you have a quick chat to your friend?

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
I agree that something unique would be ideal. Kienchil - is your mate a Reds fan?
So some of the ideas that have been floated:
- The AUFC crest
- A Pissant
- A little sculpted statue of a player (e.g. a Golden Corny)
- Something simple and traditional (e.g. a cup)
- Others? (a Spawning Salmon?)

All I need is some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine.

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
I like my own idea of the AUFC club crest and the pissant standing behind it. When it's displayed it will look classy and respectful, but when turned around it's got the pissant mentality to it

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
Chris Calver's stuff looks outstanding. And seems he has some experience with insects... Pissant should be no prob!

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
How about this.
We make a large AUFC shield with a plaque on the front with "We Are The Reds Fan Player Of The Season" then around that we put smaller plaques commemorating the player that's chosen each season, this is to (hopefully) go up for display at the club.
We then get some smaller pissants made to give to the players themselves each season.
This lets the players have their award and allows the club to have a display that hopefully people will get to see in the Reds Room or similar.

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
How about the bronzed AUFC shield set on a wooden larger shield with
"We Are The Reds"
Fans player on the season
Set/engraved onto the bronzed shield. Then have smaller engraved discs around the edge of the wooden shield
Hopefully have it displayed in the history room and then the winner gets a smaller memento trophy?
Great minds think alike?How about this.

I think it would be better to display the trophy in the history room because anyone can see it on match day and I think it would be easier to organize with the AUFC history club.

Re: Fan's Player of the Year
Great minds think alike coz I used your idea, don't give me too much credit
I def like the idea of displaying the trophy, but i also feel the player that has earnt it should be able to take it home, so I feel a trophy for the player and a shield plaque in the history room with each player each season scribed onto it would work well.
Best of both worlds
