2010 Man of the Match (MVP) Awards

June 5th vs. Fairfax Eagles (Away)
Marc "Tex" Hanke

Tex Hanke continued his solid pre-season form with a mistake free game that saw his work rate on the field lift to a new level. He easily toped the hit up rate and was among the top tacklers as well. The few moments that the Axemen found wanting for someone to carry the ball forward, he was there every time and selflessly put 100% effort as he ploughed into the defense. A great start to the season for Tex and as the teams fitness continues to improve he should stay in the top work rate players on the squad

July 25th vs. Philadelphia Fight
Craig Howitt

Craig Howitt put in his best performance of the season to help the Axemen secure their firstr ever undefeated regular season. Every carry he had was with power and at full speed and his defence was solid all day long. He had a mistake free game and made yardage seem easy as he powered his way up the field on many occasions.

Brian McLogan

"Mickey" McLogan did everything right in a game that clinch the Axemen home field advantage for the playoffs. He had a mistake free day to ensure the 64 to 8 win over the Sharks to keep the Axemen undefeated and also played a big part the biggest score of the season. His performance will cement him in the side to travel to Philly this coming weekend

July 11 vs. Philadelphia Fight

Daryl "Spinner" Howland

In a tough encounter that saw the Axemen play some moments with only 11 players after three of them spent time in the Sin Bin, Spinner showed that maturity and experience can be the difference on the field. He lead the team during moments that needed some heavy defense and managed a few line breaks at times in offense. He showed that being a veteran can be important and settled the team into more controlled play during moments of madness that allowed the Axemen to come away with a good win after a poor first half.

June 27 vs. New Haven Warriors

Apple Pope

On a day that needed 100% commitment from every Axemen player to put their bodies on the line, Apple Pope did that and then some. Although playing at Hooker for ball distribution he also managed a number of hit ups when the other forwards tired and he took a number of runs from dummy half to take pressure of the bigger guys. His defense was solid as always as he punished the Warriors ball carriers all game. His overall performance seen him do his job and also help with the workload of those around him
