With just one and a half games left in the season, things aren't likely to change the outcomes of the end of season awards.

What are your predictions for who gets what?

- Player of the Year

- Member's Player

- Player's Player

- Media's Player

- U-23 Player

- Fan of the Year

- Goal of the Year

Can I nominate myself for fan of the year for turning up to every single game at Westpac and watching the full 90 for every other game not played there? Or have too many people nominated themselves for the same reason?

Maybe we should all get fan of the year for supporting through this atrocity of a season

Given Player of the Year is voted on a 3-2-1 for each game, I reckon it's more likely to go to Ridenton or Krishna than Singh.

The u23 award is voted by fans, so based on Facebook comments I'm expecting that to go to Singh.

Also I don't think the Media award is a thing anymore.

I think Ridenton will be robbed if U23 goes to Singh.

But in saying that it'll go to Singh.

There's no Members players award either, so no point predicting that. Members vote for U23 instead.

Wouldn't vote for Roy getting player of the year after his stand off with the club. I'd go for Dura.

u23 player, Cacacae... has not put a foot wrong with the opportunities given to him and is still at school. Ridenton has been good, but based on expectation and experience, surely he's the stand out.

Cacace played what?  7 games?  How can that be young player of the "season"?  He's played in 25% of the games and didn't even start all 7.

Let's not get blinded by his youth.

There's no TV cameras here in Tologa, so fan must be someone else. Good luck Matt. Fingers crossed for you.

That’s because you’re an Old White Man from Wellington/LNI

Given that Kosta won last year's award as best player after dishing up a season of tripe, it demonstrates that the selection process is  flawed

Awesome for Matt. Fever dreams has been brilliant.  Brandon's idea of giving awa tickets outside of the station toanyone got picked up changed direction slightly and hasn't looked back.

So an amazing surprised that I didn't see coming and nearly wasn't even there for. My toddler was sick today and thought I was going to have to miss the awards evening but my lovely wife let me go anyway as a little birdie told her that I should be there. I really didn't expect to win but this is something I'm really grateful for. I love the Phoenix and Yellow Fever and consider myself lucky to be able to use that to help run Fever Dreams for families at Ronald McDonald House and the food drive for City Mission. So thank you to everyone that allows me to do so. 

I'm an optimistic pessimist. 
I'm positive things will go wrong.
