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.

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.

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.
