RYAN Lofaro has rounded out his first full year of footy in recent memory with the Northern Saints' best-and-fairest award.
The 21-year-old only featured twice for the Saints in their winless 2016 Essendon Ford Division 1 campaign but this year returned to play 18 times in the blue, red and green, including two finals.
The former Pascoe Vale and Oak Park junior also played his part in the Saints' historic 2013 Division 1 senior premiership as a 17-year-old.
The lively Peter Dispenzeri was runner-up, eight votes behind Lofaro.
