Advertising ruins everything.

I was more interested in the fashions than the count and there was little time for either.

I love an elegant frock.

It's far too late for you, pineapple. Set fire to your computer and start again.

Haha, Gawny disgusted face at only getting 2 votes for the Hawthorn match.

I found Gill's vote reading was atrocious and hugely disrespectful.  The way he raced through some games like they were meaningless was a massive insult to those teams and players awarded votes in tho

This article puts a strong case as to why Maxy should have more  votes.  Could easily have had 4 to 6 more!

Love the banter between Max and Jack V - Max says he makes the midfielders look good;  Jack says they have to mop his misguided taps!

Max had a great year. His first that was basically unhindered by injury or battling for he number one ruck spot following Russians departure.

I'm all for Max blowing his trumpet - he's completely entitled to.

But don't do it to the point where your fans consider you're a [censored].

I don't want it to come to that.

Disregard the headlines "Dangerfield breaks record to seal Brownlow"

1976 Graham Moss - 48 votes

1977 Graham Teasdale - 59 votes

2016 Some guy - 35 votes

 

Next week I will correcting the use of WHOM and WHO.

 

A quick google reveals that in 77 both of the field umps gave a 3 2 1 hence you could get 6 votes in a game...

Dems was in them days when it was two umpires and they both gived the votes.

Nowadays the umps are locked in a room after the match and are not allowed out until one prevails in a greco roman wrestling match. That winner then decides on which midfielders will receive the Brownlow votes.

Maybe if he had grown a little taller......

Seriously great effort by Max, 5 more than Goldstein and I doubt a ruckman can win it for being just a ruckman, needs to kick a forward's bag as well.

What amused me was the 'great' Nic Nat scoring just one vote. I know he only played 12 games but 1 vote!  Jack Watts is clearly a real footballer and we chose well.

cos that would've been reaaaaally lame.. they should've got the remaining members of the doors (probably only one left now, on keyboards) to play an extended version of 'the end'.

The biggest disgrace of the night was when they stopped showing highlights of all the games.

Dees won a game after the siren (gold coast) and they didnt even mention it. 

And yet it took 15 hours to do 15 rounds

Point of order.

Demons were actually ahead when the siren went in that match. GC player had a shot after the siren, but missed.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
