You would think buddy would have more, but ablett will win it.

There was a group who do footy stats or somethign like that and they predicted last years winner within one vote and they had something very similar, Ablett with 23, they spoke about it on foxtel.

Yes, I heard a bloke being interviewed on SEN today, might be the same guy because he spoke about last years stats too....they have Ablett on 23 and Cooney on 18.

Keep an eye on Kirk for Sydney over the last 9 weeks. he's 17-1.

i didn't know Richo's last name was matthew

maybe that was his name in primary school, because there were two matthews in the class

akka you serious?

Scott Thompson would have around 13.

akka you serious?

yeha i reckon he has had a great season...

very rarely do players poll that many votes in a whole season let alone half a season...

If anyone gets 28 votes for the year they will win it pretty easily i think

25 will still win probably

I agree but Ablett has been pretty much BOG in every match, and there are at least 5 where he should defiantly get 3, so there is 15 with 8 games spare, if he score 1 in each of those or a 2 in some of those he could easily make 23.

Bartel has not been as good this year, corey has been but is not as prominent in the umps mind, I would not be surprised if Ablett wins it with a record amount of votes.

The leading Demon is McLean on 4!!! OMG!!!!

You would think Aussie is a chance to poll most votes for Melbourne in the Brownlow, having probably scoring 3 votes for his game against Freo in the sides only win!

Does anyone have a list of the best players for melbourne in that game?

I've been doing my own Brownlow and here is my top 12

As you can see if MY votes continue there are going to be some records set.

Cooney - 21 -

Ablett - 20

Goodes - 15

K.Cornes - 14

Franklin - 13

Richardson - 13

Corey - 13

Harvey - 13

Judd - 12

Thompson - 12

Akermanis - 12

Out of the Melbourne votes i have given

Mclean - 5 ( 1 in round 3, 2 in round 9, 2 in round 11)

Green - 2 ( round 5)

Miller - 2 ( round 7)

Bruce - 2 ( 1 in Round 7 and 1 in round 12)

Jones - 1 ( Round 6)

Bate - 1 ( Round 9)

Out of interest, how many players usual pole votes each year? I have given 136 players at least 1 vote.

Thanks Robbo24, thats very interesting, I think your spot on with the records being set. Keep going and let us know what count you end up with after each week or so....

The total players vary from year to year but 136 is not out of the question at this stage. I'd imagine the likes of hawthorn and Sydney and Bulldogs would have at least 13-14 players each who have polled votes. So there is 40-42 out of just 3 clubs.
