    Very much look forward to seeing our total team votes. Rarely get a player in double figures let alone near the leaderboard!

    He'll win a Brownlow if they ever double their win count. 

    It's a disgrace, anything to keep them relevant.

    If Oliver wore a helmet he would have acquired 57 votes.

    Brayshaw had an insane last half of the year. I had him in my supercoach all year and he deserved his votes.

    Disgraceful.  Got votes when they were massacred.  

    He was good but not enough to warrant better than the winners best 3 or best 6 !!

    2 in top 5.... Great effort.

    Did Braysh missing out on the first few rounds cost him the medal? ;)

    How about the run by Brayshaw! Could have had 2nd if Sidearse didn’t pinch 3 in the last.

    Whilst not compensation for the disappointment of the weekend, how good was it to have 3 players “taking votes off each other” - brilliant work lads and bring on 2019.

    second most to the filth. They got something like 96 total votes, we got 93.

    WDFD, they're in a GF and we aren't. Sidebottom is and Mitchell isn't. That's the one that really matters

    Jones and Neal-Bullen stole votes off Clarry and Gawn

    Mitchell wins as there is no one to take votes off him at the hawks. If he stayed at the swans no way he would have won. 

    Gus is a fricken gun!

    I am so pleased for Gus. Taken at pick 3 and now showing his worth in a breakout year. Now for the guy taken at pick 2 to show us his worth,  I talking about you Trac.

    I’d just like to note that someone deacribed Gus as “not AFL standard” in the prelim match thread.

    CP5 = 3 votes. Long way to go if he wants to be a Hall Of Famer...

    Time on his side i guess.

    No Brownlow votes.

    It begs the immediate and obvious question.

    Should it be decided by head coaches alone? Just roll the coaches award into the actual Brownlow.

    Eighteen coaches with intimate knowledge of who really impacts the matches versus the umps who year on year make huge blunders like the one you’ve highlighted.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
