Congratulations to Burleigh Bombers Captain Marcus Powell in taking out the double with the Senior Best and Fairest along with the highly regarded Players Player award for 2011. Marcus had a late surge in both awards overtaking Mick Van Rossum in the final rounds of the season. Sam Brown was named as best First Year Player awarded to the best performing Burleigh Junior to step into Senior ranks. A special mention must go to Rob Borlase and Craig Fleming for being awarded Life Membership for their continued service to the club for many years. Marcus is congratulated by assistant coach Brad Kahyl

Senior Captain Marcus Powell clocked his 100th Game for the Bombers vs Grange last weekend. Marcus has stepped up as a leader this year in what has been a hard season for the first time Captain. Marcus started with the Bombers in 2005 playing in the Premiership that year.

Pete Laenger played his last game for the Bombers against Grange at home last weekend. Alf has been a great servant of the football club always dedicated to his training, preperation and his team mates. He will be sadly missed playing over 100 Senior Games for the Club and being a valued member of the Bombers 2004 and 2005 Premiership Teams. Peter was also acknowledged in 2007 being named in Burleigh's 30 year team.
