    Bottom line is we only 1 player to get double digits .. Oliver a second year player..  there were clubs who finished below us who polled more.. understand it's about team etc but we lack genuin guns! Our drafting continues to hurt us Kelly 21pts, Wines 19 ... 

    Not that the brownlow means too much as votes are primarily given to mids however it does show where we are as a club.  

    Our 25-30 yo player group never developed and we are relying on our 20 yo players to do the heavy lifting. 

    We will be a genuine threat when the 20-21-22 yo player group develops together. Still need another 3 years.

    viney, hogan, hunt, Salem, trac, brayshaw, o mcd, weid, Oliver. 

    All can be stars and if they develop properly constitutes half of our side.

    You need to run and carry and kick the football to win a Brownlow, our best chance Petracca and if he wins it we are playing the Saturday after the Brownlow.

    Quite a lot on innuendo in those " " quotation marks.  Not one of your better efforts.

     

    Fitzy was a guest of another player or dare I say partner (without quotation marks).

    Molloy is a panelist on the Ch7 footy show.

    ...and no idea how they vote!!!

    The entire Brownlow ceremony is 99% fluff and padding as those of us who remember the call on radio from days long since passed. (And even that was high fluff factor for the times.)

    They could do the whole thing in 10 minutes. Do a countdown of the top 10 scores, announce the winner. Then give a spreadsheet with all the numbers to the papers.

    It could be done the way they do press conferences when a player announces he's re-signed, or has retired. A short statement, a few questions, then pub.

    But they like to frizz it up with their ideas of entertainment ... red carpet, GOTY, roaming Fevolas, etc, etc.

    Who cares if they invite a few glamours and their arm candy?

    Nice of the umpires to not give Danger any votes in round 22 to ensure he didn't win and embarrass the AFL!

    Rnd 22 - Dangerfield:  32 disposals, 12 clearances and two goals.  BOG from every other award voters.

    Umpires colluding is even more embarrassing than Danger winning - that it is not in the spotlight does not make it less unethical.

    It's an AFL issue ... backed up by a cooperative media.  And the footy public don't care enough either. 

    It's convenient for the AFL for the umpires to take the heat ... although the heat dies down quite quickly anyway.

    I do agree with the sentiment of your post though ... also, the Brownlow has a history of questionable outcomes.   Dating back to the 70's

    And to think no other club wanted Dusty last time he was ooc.

    We overlooked him on draft night, didn't try to get him a couple of years ago. 

    Great.

    He was set to leave until Caroline Wilson wright rumors about his lifestyle in the age, then everyone got cold feet

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
