    Well its that time of year again when the prestigious Aussie forum awards are bestowed upon the lucky/unlucky.

    What I will request is some assistance as I attempted to go through the whole board last year and only made it to April, as being fastidious as I am I attempted to read every post from every thread for the year. In the end it was just too much so from memory the awards weren't given last year.

    What I was hoping for this year was some volunteers, who will be assigned a month from the year and they'll go through the threads from that month and pick out memorable threads, quotes, insults etc. It'll cut my workload dramatically and we can give all posters here a good indication of who deserves what award as well as a fun trip down memory lane.

    So heres your chance to give a little back to Aus ESB, join today for the official 2009 awards and we'll get this show on the road.

    I'll hunt down the previous awards and we can tweak those we think aren't worthy or add some new ones before voting begins.

    Some examples of last years recaps

    Normally yes, but a late contender has emerged. We'll leave it in the hands of the judges.

    Luds, Ash & the indominable Kronk are obvious candidates for consideration. Sally has had a few 'moments' this year as well.

    These are the categoires I vote 3, 2 and 1 votes to luds for:

    2) Biggest nuthugger - although this is debatable as he's shown he knows **** all about the sport and is driven more by his hate for Danny 'Money' Green than his love for Mundine

    6) Most irritating poster - nuff said

    7) Poster you'd most like to break a chair over their skull - although I don't think it would improve his posting here.

    12) Most naive poster - again, because he has shown time and again that he knows sweet FA about the sport.

    13) Biggest hater - driven by his 'Green' eyed monster rather than his 'Choc'olate fantasy.

    14) Most sookiest poster.

    18) Worst Post of the Year - for many, many posts, not just the one.

    I think another award should be struck for best referee and judge who posts on this forum and lives in Capalaba, Qld with a wife, 2 kids and two dogs (and is a bit overweight and had questionable taste in footwear)
