Michael Finn of Launceston doesn’t need James Hird to Give Him the Tip! The avid Bomber supporter has managed fine on his own this season predicting the outcome of eight specific events from Essendon’s match and comfortably leads the BomberLand tipping competition. Finns is top of the tables with 124 points and a distant second is Leanne Neville (105), followed by and John Strybosch and Mitchell McKenzie both on 101 points. Pending on Round 22 results, Finn is on track to win an interstate trip with the team next season.

2001 best and fairest winner, Jason Johnson is still leading the TAG Heuer Player of the Year competition. The courageous mid-fielder has continued his 2001 form with another consistent season in 2002. The 24-year-old is currently leading the competition with 47 points. A close second is James Hird, with 44 votes. Despite missing seven matches this season, the Bombers skipper has managed to poll strongly in the matches he has played. If Hird has another best on ground performance, he may beat Jason Johnson across the line to win the prestigious award.
