The winner of the brownlow didnt even make the all australian so jones had no hope

The All Australian team is 90% popularity parade and 10% objective reward for quality.

Great to see Priddis win...sometimes it has seemed that the umpires play 'catch-up' and overly notice a player who perhaps should have won the previous year.

Great to see they resisted this temptation and to see a whole bunch of new names in the top 10!

...but... Josh Kelly will win 5 Brownlows!?!

..... "tell him he is dream'n"

I really doubt it but it doesn't matter because we already have someone who is polling well at an early stage. An inspired pick by Roos.

Congratulations to Matt Priddis, he's been a consistently excellent player for a long time now. I always wonder how much more highly regarded players like Priddis, Boak, etc would be if they were playing in one of the big Victorian teams.

It is also fantastic to have the Jim Stynes medal presented during the ceremony. There are a lot of players doing great work in the community that you never hear about, and it is nice that they are recognised.

PS. Kevin Sheedy - just go away forever. Please. I thought that tribute was meant to be about Bailey & Hafey, but you seemed to take it as an opportunity to talk about yourself for five minutes.

Humour me for a moment:

Tyson gets 11 votes in one year and has only played 35 career games. No GWS or Suns player goes close to that. (Prestia 13 votes 73 games)

Jack Macrae at the Dogs 10 votes this year (34 career games) also very impressive. Picked one spot ahead of Oliver Wines (why oh why didn't we pick him!?! ......Macrae that is.)

Scully 10 votes over his career of 86 games (at $45,000 per game).

Well done Mr Tyson lets hope you win it one day (after MrJones).

Perhaps Sheedy thought that at the time, DB was treated pretty shabbily by the MFC. There is some weight to that argument.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
