Who will be the next Dees Brownlow Winner


Dees2014

Recommended Posts

Someone here on DL suggested a few months ago to put a punt on Gawn. I think it was like 19:1 or 12:1 at the time. I’m not much of a gambler, aside for 2-up and a mock Melbourne Cup, but I threw a few on in this case when it was suggested.

Let’s see how the man goes ?

Gawn won't get close.

He is a ruckman for one, umps don't give them any votes and how many games has bl00dy Nicholls umpired against us? He'd give Gawny negative votes such is his disdain for him. Plick

Gawn is now 2nd favourite for the Brownlow.    

My posts were July 2017. Your archive is admirable. 

My view now is that Max is rightly outright favourite for the medal. He is a genuine star and in the top three or four players in the AFL, and one of the few who makes such a huge difference when he is on the field that he makes the difference between winning and losing. He WILL win us a flag in the next year or two. 

I really don’t understand certain commentators who rank Max only in the top 2 or 3 ruckman in the AFL. To me he is clearly number one. The complete package.

Bet they find a way to give Grundy heaps of votes

I will be interested to see the games that Nicholls umpired and how Gawn went in them. I believe Max should be favourite for the Brownlow now so it will be interesting to see how he polls.

How good is Gawn's influence in the centre bounces and around the stoppages ? What about his big telling marks in defence ? His ground work is exquisite. 40+ hit outs 13 times out of 16 games. Leads the MVP by 5 votes before this count smashing his nearest rivals.  If he keeps this form going and free of injury he can legitimately win this years Brownlow without a doubt.  He is the main reason that we are in the hunt to make finals for the first time since 2006. He has a big influence in the saying of how we finish the year. I and many others would prefer a Premiership than a Brownlow,  however he deserves both medals.

Max needs to make Nicholls a latte and become Instagram friends.

I think I owe you a few beers then!

Will be disapointing but not surprising if Mitchell wins it. he is a very good player but not an out and out star like previous winners (Fyfe/Danger,/Dusty) or like Gawn/oliver.  he gets it a lot due to a lack of quality inside mids at hawthorn and imo does not influence games to the extent the others I mention do.

itll just show that the umpires notice the amount of touches rather than the impact over a game

Gaff?

Nope. Actually, if he misses games next year from this suspension is he eligible for next year’s Brownlow?

Would love to see either Max or Clarry win it but I think Patrick Cripps will be very hard to beat.

    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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    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
