Yeah, ramjet21, Paul Dooley was indeed the BOG and was awarded the Frank Johnson Medal.

The scores were:
VFL: 5.5.35 ~ 8.7.55 ~ 15.13.103 ~ 18.17.125
SANFL: 1.3.9 ~ 7.4.46 ~ 7.6.48 ~ 10.9.69

The Williamstown v Coburg game you referred to was in fact the reserves.

Will: 5.2.32 ~ 11.8.74 ~ 14.18.102 ~ 20.22.142
Cob: 1.3.9 ~ 5.3.33 ~ 6.6.42 ~ 7.10.52

Goals: Fonua 5, Ralph 4, Basile 3, Tavelangi 2, Twomey 2, Darby, Hollow, Odell, Sheehan.

Best: Fonua, Kelly, Sheehan, Odell, Crow, Twomey.

The reserves are currently sitting fourth on the ladder.

ahhh. that would explain it. didnt think they'd play seniors with the travel/split round and i was a bit concerned if cummings was finally fit why he wasnt getting a game at willy instead of sitting in the stands at subi. still, a wins a win, ressies or otherwise. well done to dooley.
