With the Shute Shield on hold during the current Covid outbreak, we thought we’d take some time to look at the best individual performers from the first half of the season.

The Catchpole Medal is awarded each year to the best and fairest player of the Shute Shield competition.

Each week, first grade coaches award 3, 2 and 1 point to the best players from the opposition team.

After the opening 10 rounds, 13 players have found themselves in contention.

Don’t forget, you can watch highlights from all 2021 Shute Shield matches on demand on Stan Sport.
