So we want to believe the dlickheads called unpires who can't even interpret most rules correctly are the be all and end all judges of who wins a football match.

Hence, Grundy AWOL, Gawn AWOL, Oliver AWOL.

I wrest my cases.

If the count continues this way it’s going to be very interesting listening and reading the media tomorrow. Both Gawn and Grundy had amazing years and both deserve to be near the top.

Complete farce. Only one player in the top 10 that isn't a midfielder and it's bloody Franklin! 

Becoming incredibly clear the umpires aren't fit to award points for this award any more. There needs to be a better way, either with coaches or an esteemed voting panel that can adequately adjudicate these things without the midfielder bias.

Maybe next year Demonland should do its own 3 2 and 1votes and send it to AFL.

Keep the coaches votes secret, find a popular ex coach to name it after (not Sheedy), hype it up in the media and let it take over from the Brownlow.

Might be the only one, but I'm happy for the umpires to be clueless about who played well in any particular game. They are there only to adjudicate the game and are too often clueless about that. I wish they went back to the days when umpires weren't 'personalities' and they stayed completely out of the limelight (I'm talking to you Razer).

The sooner Brownlow voting is taken away from them, the better.

So how much did you have placed?

I’ve never bet on the award.

Clarry had 40 touches against the Cats and missed out on a single vote.

Yep, I'm done.

Music acts, endless padding, Broooooce's cringe worthy interviews with drunk players, and it's 10.30 and they're still reading out votes. 

This is the Brownlow under the auspices of the clueless morons at Channel 7 who think people will stomach bloated [censored] like this. Talk about being force-fed cow manure by a broadcaster who are happy to treat their audience like morons.

G Ablett Jnr has certainly been worthy in the past, but recon he got a heap of cheap votes this year.

The bias towards "champions" is so blatant. His season was barely above average. Well and truly past it but racks up votes because of his surname.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
