Inspirational skipper Phil Carse has won his third Redland Bombers B&F award in four years, streeting the field for one of the most one-sided Dowling Medal victories in club history.

Weightman also was judged “Most Consistent”, while Hackett took ‘Most Improved”, Sam Godfrey was named ‘Best First-Year Player”, and Dzufer collected trophies for the Leading Goal-Kicker and Coach’s Award.
The Beohm Family was awarded the Redland Club Person of the Year, while Shaun Jackson won “Best Clubman” and Godfrey took out the Rising Star Award.
In the Reserves, Jack McDonald, who played four senior games, won his third consecutive Peter Gregory B&F Medal, and in the U18s, who were beaten in the division two grand final, Scott Ward collected the Ron Sheppard B&F Medal.
