Demon Brownlow Betting

Featured Replies

Posted

OK, so i want to bet on monday nights brownlow medal. I thought i would have a crack at the most votes for Melbourne category.

Its out of:

James Frawley - $2.75

Brad Green - $3.00

Colin Sylvia - $4.00

Any other player - $8.50

Brent Moloney - $9.00

Tom Scully - $34.00

Who would you bet on and why?

 

Green $3. Match winning performances.

Expect Cam Bruce to poll well for us. $8.50 is great value.

I did my own Brownlow count and (being a little biased) had Sylvia in the mid-teens, one vote ahead of Green.

Take both of them, it's too hard to split.

 

Jamar?

This is where my money will be lost.

Well, I don't see anybody else possibly leading the votes for Melbourne, so if you bet evenly on both of them you should make a profit.

Then again, I'm 15...

backmen dont poll well

Green should do ok with a few bags of goals. Looking at players who have polled votes over the years, Bruce has received most so I would imagine he will be thereabouts after an ok season. Sylvia from memory polled 5 last season, with a few more wins this season and closer contests with some good games - I expect he may go close. Unsure on Frawley despite recognition in house and among the Dees faithful.

I would be inclined to go Sylvia at $4.00 ahead of Frawley & Green. Green will give you good sight I would imagine. The B&F supports this. However, the umpires are a different breed.

If I was after value though (which I have been known to chase at times), at $8.50 you could support either Bruce and Jamar to do well and wish for a surprise. :)

Good luck.

Here's my guess for top 5 in Brownlow at Dees (in order):

Sylvia $4.00

Frawley $2.75

Green $3.00

Jamar $8.50

Bruce $8.50

Save your money?

Save your money-- but if it is a must--an other player @$8.50 is the way I'd go. Wouldn't be surprised if Tom Scully polls well.However, I feel the votes will be very mixed.


Sylvia for top votes by a Melbourne player. When he's on, he is eye catching.

I picked Green. But it's not an easy one, like Richmond.

Inside the mind of an umpire...

Here is my attempt at guessing the umpires votes having gone through the games best - of course taking into consideration the opposition: -

Sylvia - 13

Frawley - 11

Jamar - 8

Moloney - 6

Green - 5

Davey - 3

Miller - 3

Junior - 2

Scully - 2

Bruce - 1

Trengove - 1

Petterd - 1

Total = 56 votes

slow saturday I know..

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
