The Allan Border Medal

Would give Katich the Border medal and the Test one as well.
But doesn't the whole thing work on a voting system or something, so who exactly votes..

The players (both former and present), or is there a particular jury for that...?

Allan Border Medal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Allan Border Medal is considered to be the biggest individual prize in Australian cricket. First awarded in 2000, the medal is named after former Australian captain Allan Border and recognizes the most outstanding Australian cricketer of the past season as voted by his peers, the media and umpires. Votes are cast after each game on a 3-2-1 basis, with a weighting applied to give both One Day International and Test players an equal chance of winning the award.

The award ceremony takes place at the Crown Casino in Melbourne and is held towards the end of January or the start of February each year.

Locked in the law building cramming as I type this Vic.

Any worse than normal?
Well, as bad as normal. Plus they added an extra bit again on that bloody calendar, getting all the females in the room to vote on the best looking guy and doing this formal presentation on it.

Nicholas MCing making me want to vomit; urgh.

The induction was going well untill John Howard popped up and broke my eyes and ears.

Thought we got rid of the ****rag.

Can't remember the last time I cringed so much. Nicholas has been hilariously unbearable.

Hopefully the HOF induction will have some semblance of class.
Haha, semblance of class? No chance of getting a comment from someone outside of Australia? Just the Ch 9 commentary team plus his brother... and JOHN HOWARD!

Thank God I've got work to do. The Alan Border Medal has been crap viewing ever since Nicholas took the helm.

I can give away some of the winners if people don't want to sit through the tripe...:ph34r:

Only the fact that there's nothing to celebrate other than the HOFers and seeing some of the sorts that turn up

In other words, you could cram the whole thing into a broadcast the length of the weekly Lotto draw
