If every player was asked who they’d prefer in their team do you think they’d pick Gawn or Tom Mitchell? 

I don't know.

Because we're talking about the Brownlow, it's in that context the comment was made.

 

Jack Viney 2019 together with All Australian and premiership captain!!

Yeah he’ll [censored] it in with 6 votes from 2 wins...

Response to my post stating Patrick Cripps would be hard to beat in Brownlow.

Proof that 12k+ posts indicate that whilst you may be good at waffle and sarcasm, really know stuff all about the game in general.


J Harmes a smokey

Wont be a tagger forever 

Gus, Lever or Harmes.

Or someone who's not even born yet. i.e. we're such a good team with such a good spread that we become a team of vote stealers.

 

Based on the polling we may not get one.  Yes we have the players who deserve one but getting enough votes for one is a different matter.

Viney will start taking votes from Brayshaw and Oliver.  Along with Max claiming his fair share they may all finish in the top 5 or top 10 but all too good to separate in the votes. 

That is one star-studded midfield, the likes of which hasn't bee seen since the Lions of the early 2000's. 

Sadly, the Brownlow means less and less each year so Max, Ollie, Gus and Jack can rotate for the Norm Smith medal ?

He lost by 8 votes, he wasn’t hard to beat at all. 

My point was there was no way he would win it. And I was correct as always. 

Can’t recall a defender winning a Brownlow.

Do we really care? Winning finals and then a GF is what counts. Winning the best midfielder award is just an AFL sideshow.

Who has the 'highest games no votes ' record currently?

Nick Smith (Swans) 211 games, no votes. 

So the rumour goes....

Brayshaw. Unlike Oliver, who does a lot of hard-to-see work in close, Brayshaw does the eyecatching stuff,.If Oliver further develops his own eyecatching work, - Look out, Brownlow.

This is purely subjective on my part, but I reckon Brayshaw has a more conspicuous style of play than Oliver.

I think Wanganeen played back pocket in 93...

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
