    Both Martin and Dangermouse have had good seasons, not great seasons by any measure.

    Laughable. Gus missed too much of the regular season to be that high in the votes.

    we'll have too many players taking votes off each other to contest the brownlow. No such problem for Mitchell and the Hawks.

    Totally corrupt - Max and Clarrie should share it with Gus and Jetta equal third.

    Do people care about the Brownlow winner anymore... seems to be more a weird red carpet session for the voyeurs.

    Time we moved to the old Eurovision song contest voting system... just imagine all the Melbourne members giving the Collingwood stars... "nul points"

    Cry Baby (Jemini song) "Cry Baby", written and composed by Martin Isherwood, was the United Kingdom's entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2003, and was performed by the duo Jemini. To date, it is the only song ever entered by the United Kingdom to earn no points ("nul points") from any other countries.

    This. Even as a woman, I’m appalled by the lack of focus on players and more what their current, Gf, wife, whatever is wearing. I didn’t see this focus on male partners when the WAFL equivalent was bought out. 

    Seriously, who cares what their current whatever is wearing or how much skin she’s showing? When did it become about fashion? It makes me wish more players would do a Jim Stynes and bring their parents, so we can stop focusing on clothes

    Grundy deserves more votes as well but agree the predicted is farcical.

    Beams was not even AA right?

    Yes I agree and blame Bec Judd as I think she stared this ridiculous concept!

    He played 19/22 games, so it’s only a whisker over 1 vote a game on average. I agree it probably won’t pan out that way but it’s definitely plausible. It’ll be interesting to see his scoring average.

    I'm surprised it's that high but he certainly didn't click IMO until round 6 or 7. No way he gets that many votes IMO.

    Ignoring the names, but is that a lot of players getting 20 votes or more? Is that usual?  A quick Wikipedia check says that Greg Williams and Dipper won it jointly with 17 each and Wanganeen and Liberatore won it with 18.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
