Bendigo Pioneers' duo Brodie Kemp and Maeve Tupper have earned high praise for their 2019 seasons.

His season finished early when he suffered a knee injury in school football.
The midfielder was in the Pioneers' under-18 girls best players in eight of the club's nine matches this year.
Tupper polled 10 votes to finish equal eighth in the NAB League girls best and fairest award behind Calder's Georgir Prespakis.

Thomson Dow polled six votes to be the Pioneers' leading vote-getter.
