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.

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.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
