MELBOURNE Wholesale Kyrie Youth Shoes , Sept. 29 (Xinhua) -- Nat Fyfe, who hails from the tiny town of Lake Grace in outback Western Australia, has been crowned the 2015 Brownlow Medallist, Australian football's highest individual award.
Fyfe won the Brownlow, which is awarded to the Australian Football League's fairest and best player each season, with 31 votes beating out last year's winner Wholesale Kyrie Womens Shoes , West Coast Eagles midfielder Matt Priddis, by three votes.
It was the first time a player from the Fremantle Dockers, a club that was admitted into the league in 1994, has received the honor.
"This is genuinely a team and Fremantle Football Club medal, and it's great to be able to take it back to the football club," Fyfe said in his acceptance speech Monday night.
Fyfe regularly goes back home to Lake Grace Wholesale Kyrie Mens Shoes , a small outpost of 500 residents in southern Western Australia, to help out on his family's farm where he helps his father round up, shear and transport sheep.
He attended the Brownlow black-tie event, held Monday night before the Grand Final each season in Melbourne, leaning on a cane.
Following the Dockers' heart-breaking preliminary final loss to Hawthorn Friday night, it was revealed Fyfe Wholesale Kyrie Shoes , who collected 26 possessions and nine clearances, had played almost the entire game with a cracked fibula in his lower leg.
In winning the Brownlow, Fyfe broke the record for most votes in the first eight rounds of the season, surpassing now retired dual-Brownlow Medallist Chris Judd.
The 24-year-old's barnstorming start to the count slowed down as he missed four games late in the season due to injury. He did not poll in the final six rounds.
Fyfe, who has been named the AFL Players Association Most Valuable Player (MVP) the past two seasons, became the first Brownlow Medallist to win the award despite missing at least four games.
In his acceptance speech Cheap Kyrie Irving Shoes , Fyfe quipped any midfielder could have won the sport's most coveted prize if they had his secret weapon, the Dockers' 211cm ruckman Aaron Sandilands tapping the ball down to them.
Fyfe was the popular choice for the Brownlow for most the season, with several betting companies paying out on result halfway through the season before injury brought him back to the pack.
In each game of the AFL regular season, the three umpires confer and vote for the three best players on the ground.
Japanese mobile game “Tabi Kaeru,” or “Traveling Frog” in English, has gone viral among local youth Cheap Kyrie Shoes Online , particularly among female players.
“The game caters to the softest part of some white-collars,” said He Yunfeng, head of Shanghai Normal University’s institute of knowledge and value sciences. “Many of them are striving for a living here in an unfamiliar city. They may empathize with the game as the frog has its own adventure which is completely out of the player’s hands.”
In the game players need to prepare a frog for a journey. Players harvest clover as currency to buy props and make a backpack for the frog before he goes on the journey. The frog will send postcards and bring back souvenirs.
It had become the most downloaded free app in the simulation game section of the Apple store by yesterday.
The game provides little interaction room for players. “Except for preparing lunchbox and harvesting clovers, all you can do is wait for it to come home,” said Li Jiahe, who is obsessed with the game after playing it for two weeks.
“The game reminds me of my time at university away from home Cheap Kyrie 5 Shoes ,” said Dong Xiaoqi, who works in Shanghai but is from Ningbo in Zhejiang Province. “I thought my mother was nagging at the time when she constantly asking me about my life here. Isn’t it grotesque to understand a mother’s mind via such a game!”
In Japanese, “kaeru” pronounced in Japanese means “frog” as noun, it also means “homecoming” as a verb.
The game is popular among young people as it shows a Buddhism concept. The concept refers to people who see through the emptiness of the material world and follow their heart. They find relationships troublesome and prefer to be alone.
Players like Dong refer themselves as “the mom” of the frog.
“My frog has been gone for three days, where did he go?” Cheng Chen, an office worker in an accounting firm mumbles to herself during lunch. “It is a fair escape for me to temporarily absent myself from workplace.” Cheng installed the game in both her working phone and private phone.
“Some souvenirs Cheap Kyrie 4 Shoes , such as a Japanese style tumbler, are quite rare to collect,” Li said of the game. “I spent 25 yuan (US$4) to buy 2,800 clovers to redeem an amulet.”
According to many players, the props will have some influence on the frog’s destination or trip times, but the frog’s journey is random. “It is said if you prepare a pasty in its lunchbox Cheap Kyrie 3 Shoes , the frog will go to somewhere far,” said Dong. “Basically, you have no control on the game whatsoever.”
According to statistics from research firm App Annie which tracks the mobile application market and user behavior, players have spent about US$200,000 on the game by Sunday, one month after its debut.
App Annie didn’t provide Android market figures. But the game is “surprisingly popular” in its application store Cheap Kyrie 2 Shoes , said Oppo, one of the top three Chinese smartphone vendors.
