Logan also claimed leading goal kicker for the grade.
He was the highest finishing Ram this season, although other Rams players featured in the top 15 across several grades.
Logan polled an astounding 47 votes for the season, equalling Cobram’s Oliver Benson.
They were both 11 votes ahead of the competition’s runner-up.
Logan polled the maximum three votes in all but three of the games he played this year.
He polled two votes in round 16 against Congupna, but no votes in round 11 against Cobram. No points were awarded in round five, due to a Rumbalara forfeit.
With the boot, Logan kicked 59 goals to take the top prize 15 goals clear of the runner-up.
It reflects a standout year for the Ram, who also appeared in the grand final against his best and fairest equal from Cobram.
The Rams also produced several other top 10 finishers across the different grades.
Ella Harvey was the next highest place vote getter finishing sixth in the A-grade netball.
In the under-17s netball Aysha Mitsch (equal seventh), Ava Marshall (equal eighth) and Shontai O’Callaghan (equal tenth) all finished in the top 10.
Bella Hillier was the other top 10 vote count getter finishing equal ninth in the under-15s.
Other top vote getters in the football included Chase Bartlett (equal eighth) and Andrew Smith (tenth) in the thirds and Brett MacDonald (equal tenth) in the reserves.
Playing for Moama this season, Deniliquin’s Ava Richards also finished equal seventh in the under-17s.
As well as polling votes, there were also a number of locals in the Murray League Inter-league representative teams selected earlier in the year across the grades recognised on Sunday.
