Brownlow Medal count 2015

Featured Replies

Prestia not there tonight.

Weird he's not as a top poller and vice captain, even if he missed so many games.

Make of that what you will.

He's overseas mate.

 

But seriously, Fyfe, what a great winner.

One of those players you can't dislike, even when he's tearing your side apart. Just sat there in awe when we played Freo this year.

 

Wouldn't you just love him saying he'd die for your club. Awesome stuff. Just a pity he wasn't talk about my club.

This sums up our footy club pathetic drafting...

09 draft

1: Scully

2 : trengove

11: gysberts

18: tapscott

20 : Fyfe

I think Fyfe would've copped it from us given how skinny he was when he was drafted. He might not have reached this potential with us not to mention the WA factor

The body he has now is ridiculous though. I wonder what the hard-work/genetics/good-training-methods ratio is there.

 

Howe a bit stiff to miss mark of the year but it was always going to go to the human highlight reel, Nic. Nat. But in pure athleticism, Howe got up there without assistance and from the side. Degree of difficulty quite high I thought.

It is rather ironic that a big man like Nic Nat wins the mark of the year when he took just 30 marks in 20 games for an average of just 1.5 per game.One and a half marks a game for a ruck man is rather puny to put it mildly. No doubt his athleticism gained him the award in this case. Howe was superior with his effort. By the way, big Maxy took 57 marks in just 13 games at an average of 4.3.

JPK fourth in the count but couldn't get a gig in the AA side.

Matt Priddis didn't make the AA squad last year despite winning the Brownlow.

Well done to Fyfe, a well-deserved win for a fantastic footballer.


Had a good laugh at Zorko getting 2 votes against us, and Hogan only 1.

Congratulations to Nat Fyfe. Aside from being a phenomenal footballer, he seems like a really good bloke as well. Pretty easy to see who the Dockers' next captain will be.

And second in the AFL coaches award I think...what a disgrace

The AA selectors are, and always have been pathetic. Remember when Yze couldn't get in despite winning/top placing in multiple media awards? The nuffies said " oh, you have to do it over a number of years.." honestly they are all a joke, the Rising Star, the Brownlow the AA side etc.

The media are in love with NicNat. Great highlights reel but thats about it for mine.

Actually go and watch his under 18s video.. its actually quite bad! Lol

But it also proves how hard he has worked to get to where is now. Probably skinnier then what Jack Watts was and is now one of the beast midfielders of the competition.

Agreed on all points.

He fact he used to match up on Cale Morton in the backyard says it all.

His kicking still isn't THAT great. He's just so explosive and strong through the core, it seems like others simply can't tackle him.

He's an outright champion. Priddis is a great story but Fyfe is more the type of player you think of when you think Brownlow medal winner.


Great winner, humble and down to earth. Very composed despite Bruce creaming himself with every cringeworthy question.

It really has become a midfielders medal. Top 10 were mids before Goldstein. Bit ridiculous that players like Tom Mac and Heath Shaw didn't poll a vote. The umps really need to start taking notice of players outside the centre square!

I had a pretty good laugh when Fyfe suggested that Bruce would win a Brownlow with Sandilands hitting it down his throat.

what gun Fyfe is. played the second half of the season on one leg and missed 4 games and still won. he would have cracked 40 votes if he stayed fit

on another topic, I think they should officially exclude defenders from the brownlow. its [censored] ridiculous. obviously the umpires have no appreaciation for the skill involved in being a good defender. they just vote for whoever gets the ball the most

T Mac gettin no votes and Scarlet hardly polling over the years when he was one of the best players of the past 30 years sums it up.

 

Its also an award for being able to stand out with some distinguishing feature that makes sure each touch is noticed.

Fyfe priddis long crazy hair

Ablett judd both bald

Easily recognisable

He's overseas mate.

Confirmed defecting to NFL.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
