The biggest surprise in these odds is that Angus Brayshaw is 25/1 for the Brownlow. I only say that because as an "unknown" last year he still managed to come third. I would expect he will now be noticed even more by the umpires in 2019 and benefit from that. Of course, he will also now be subjected to more scrutiny from the opposition, but no more than the names ahead of him on the list. 

I hardly bet but I reckon putting $20 on Tmac's Coleman odds wouldn’t be silly.

Josh Kelly 16-1 for the brownlow.  juicy odds

I see we are $3.50 to miss the 8. so we are twice as likely to miss the 8 than to win the flag!  that sums up the craziness of this league I think!

I have a personal 'rule' never to bet on the Dees, so for me it's just incredibly exciting to see how well we are placed on all of the charts at this point in time.  At last we are widely (and justifiably) recognized and no longer anonymous!  I know a hell of a lot can happen between now and then, but if things go our way .........  who knows?  


3 players in the bracket above for the Brownlow, good signs. If anyone is chasing longer odds, the skip is at $126. We’d love to see a full season from Viney, he polls easily.

I assume that Brayshaw is listed in the top 10 or so is because of his surprise finish in this years Brownlow. Gus had a cracking 2018 and I look forward to him repeating it and perhaps going up a notch. Kid is a star.

The long odds are always a massive distortion of the real chances:

GC: 251-1 for the flag - play next season 251 times and there's still no way GC win the flag, it's really something like 251,000-1.

Same goes for GCs top 8 and top 4 chances, likewise for Carlton for all 3.

He was already well noticed considering how well he polled despite missing a large chunk of games at the start of the year. Had he played to start the season and played to the standard he did for the rest of the reason, he'd have won by a mile.

Indeed. 

Speaking of betting i backed Oliver to get get more votes than Maxy, thinking it was good value. I chose the wrong player.

 I could not believe Brayshaw polled more votes than Oliver. Crazy. 

I reckon the umps must hate Oliver. Perhaps a touch too lippy?

He's either too lippy to umpires or opposition players or he is simply too quick for those blind maggots to see.

also got a lot to do with kick:handball ratio

You are quite right. My post can only make sense if some umpires didn't notice him who now may be more likely to because their peers already have. 

Many Melbourne players will feature in Brownlow votes this coming season 2019, while obviously a kick by foot is worth more than a ball by hand, no matter who is giving it..........

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.

    It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!
