Fair enough I think. Our main chances - Davey and Sylvia - have not yet reached the heights of those players, both in terms of consistency and playing in a team that wins the lion's share of its games.

Scully would be worth a $20 flutter at long-shot odds.

Pendlebury looks the value bet of those listed above.

Not really that surprising though. How'd we go in the Brownlow last year?

These things are bloody hard to win. I feel that even if we do have an exceptionally good year we're unlikely to do that well in the Brownlow count anyway. Scully aside - and not at this early stage in his career - I don't think we've got anyone on our list who could line up enough genuinely great games to score the requisite number of votes to win it.

The likes of Sylvia and Davey in excellent form will lurk around the 12-15 vote mark IMO, which obviously won't cut the mustard.

 

If I can get 60's for Jurrah winning the Coleman and 200's for Sylvia winning the Brownlow I might take those bets.

Sylvia and Davey both polled 10 votes this year, in a team winning less than half their games. When we start winning and if these guys, Sylvia especially, can stay consistent, they will be pushing the 20 mark. Sylvia especially IMO, as he has the ability to play game breaking games.

I quite like Jimmy Bartel at those prices. If you can win one with Ablett in your team, it surely cant do his chances any harm now that Ablett is gone.

Scully will be good next year, but brownlow is bloody optimistic.

We've yet to see him handle a real tag.

I must confess I like that one. But I'm not sure if I'm thinking with my head or my heart.

Ahhh stuff it ... I'm happy to go with my heart.


Sylvia is definitely worth a punt here... He polls well, and as we start winning more games, if he stays fit I will tip him to have a break out season and will go close to taking home the Charlie...currently paying $151 with Sportsbet.com.au

Dees have definately got a couple of good smokeys!!! I reckon Sylvia and Scully are definately worth a punt for bronwlow, and LJ for Coleman is a ripper... If he stays fit, i have no doubt it could happen... Can anyone tell me the odds for LJ? Or is it too early?

I think he real "smokie" is Grimes. If his kicking improves and has an injury free year he will be the star of our team and will collect many Brownlow votes.

I was going to say Grimes too JCB.

I think he wouldn't be a bad punt. Long odds, but worth it if he comes on home!

Gippy

I know I will get laughed at/derided, but I think that Jones will be the one who could really step up in a big way in season 2011. There are few who work as hard as he does, few who show the courage he does, and as his skills improve (it's already been stated that he is training very well and appears to have greatly improved his kicking) combined with those other attributes, he is a good chance to score well. I also believe that he will be a part of the 2011 leadership group.


i don't think i can wait long enough for the 2011 brownlow...i'm going to have a bet on melbourne to win the nab cup.

Betfair have a market set. However, its a bit flakey. Market set to 124%

Your have Backers showing 50's but only $39 available and Layers showing at 65's but only for $9.00 at the time of posting.

Depends on how you think he is going to go early in the season.

Consider yourself derided. I'd love to see it happen, but I think Sylvia, Moloney, McKenzie, Trengove and Scully will be the preferred midfielders unless Jonesy really has found a gear or two. Barring injury I think he'll have to sacrifice his attacking game to fulfill roles as his did last year.

One thing that hurts Jones for mine is that I don't think he's as brilliant at the clearances as most think. The 5 I've listed above seem better at either getting a hand on the ball or laying a tackle. Jones I think is actually more an outside player without the speed and skills (but with a big body and hard as an axe). If he has round a bit of run in the legs I wouldn't be surprised if he played a fair bit on the wing and with success.

Fair enough I think. Our main chances - Davey and Sylvia - have not yet reached the heights of those players, both in terms of consistency and playing in a team that wins the lion's share of its games.

I agree, I also like Selwood's chances a little more now seeing as he doesn't have Gablett taking votes away from him.

Jurrah could be a good chance for the coleman if only he can string 22 together.

What are the odds for us making the finals next year?

2000 - S.Woewodin - Melbourne - 2nd

2001 - J.Akermanis - 1st

2002 - S.Black - 1st

2003 - M.Riccuito - 6th, A.Goodes - 4th, N.Buckley - 2nd

See a pattern? Unless you're C.Judd or M.Riccuito your team has to finish top 4 and in fact 8/13 winners or >60% have come from the Grand Finalists.

Well Sylvia was supposed to be the next Riccuito...

Anyone know what he's paying for a place?

I'd say Sylvia has a brownlow in him. He has the kind of game that when he plays well he gets noticed (and has shown he will poll 3 voters). He's the kind of guy that could win it if he put 10 great games together in a season. He can do it, but not next year. If there was a market for the 2012 and 2013 brownlow medals I'd be interested to see what odds Sylvia would be.

Davey won't win one, but he could easily poll 30-45 votes in the next three seasons (no mean feat if it happens).

exactly right

that's why the award is such a joke, there are 3 measly votes for 44 players and the winning side is gauranteed 2, usually 3 of them. Fundamentally ridiculous.

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • 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.
