Max can't be beaten and you'd expect he gets the 6s.

Your votes 6,5,4,3,2,1 and thanks for your votes throughout 2019.

6. Max Gawn

5. Jack Viney

4. Clayton Oliver

3. Bayley Fritsch

2. Christian Petracca

1. James Harmes

6. Gawn - what more can the man do

5. Viney - an outstanding game on Cunnington

4. Fritsch - a super forward game

3. Frost - great work on the probable Coleman medallist - a soft goal from a downfield free and then another as a result of Oliver's 50 m penalty.

2. Lewis - despite his bad turnover near the end still uses the ball better than just about everyone in our team.

1. Oliver - lots of it but lots wasted.

MAX -  You won't see a better game from a ruckman

Fritsch - Permanently up forward next year

Harmes - Plenty of it and showed a cool head for the most part.

Oliver -   Ball magnet as usual ( some questionable disposal though)

Frost - Did the business on Ronald Mc Donald head.

6. Gawn (outstanding leadership)

5. Frost (great job on Brown)

4. Oliver (prolific although efficiency poor)

3. Fritsch (always a forward)

2. Viney (disposal a worry)

1. Stretch (best efficiency on the ground)

6.Gawny - take a bow, dominant BOG performance  3 Chas votes, AA 22 sewn up and Bluey all sealed today

5. Fritsch- good 4 quarter performance, good leading patterns, good link up ball use and forward threat all day

4.Viney - toss of the coin here between he and Frost who both won their battles against 2 of Norths best 3 players and by taking Cunnington out of the game helped us win the clearances and limit opportunities for Brown 

3. Frost see above,  did the job on dangerous forward and cost him the Coleman 

2. Trac - set game up early, made good decisions and was good around midfield in bursts

1.Clarry - I didn't like his defensive running which marks him down but finds the ball, important at the clearances and just so important to our midfield dominance today

6006 Gawn - an absolute giant of a game 

5 Frost - beat the Coleman medallist 

4 -Fritsch  why did Goody even think he should be played in the backline

3 Harmes Gives 100%+

2 Viney A captains game

1 Stretch. Now can he stay injury free.  

6.  Captain Gawn

5.  Viney - might have found a niche, keeping in mind Cunny is slooow too.

4.  Fritschkreig almost a blitzkreig!

3.  Frosty quite a show on Bob

2.  Tracc VG in splutters & spurts 

1.  Clarry (hoping he starts looking beyond his immediate vision / circle as first option & clear to outside ball users more often in 2020)

HM to Harmes...worked his butt off and one of the few effective two way running mids.  Demerit points for the inexplicable stops and props that may have cost us a shot or two at winning the game.

4: Viney, I still love you even if others don’t! (and, anyone who owns a Bernese Mountain Dog must be OK)!

3: Fritsch, really becoming fun to watch!

Well done to the big fella!!!

I didn't get to watch the game but listened to about two-thirds on SEN. According to the callers (Peter Donegan, Terry Wallace and Tristan Fernanda), Gawn was not just clearly the best player, but also played one of the most dominant games of the year. Demonland agrees.

So can anyone who saw the game explain why The Age in its votes, where they give five players votes out of ten, gave Higgins BOG with 8 and Max equal second BOG with 7? It just seems inexplicable to me based on the radio coverage, both that he wasn't BOG and also only got 7 out of 10.

He has been treated very harshly in the media awards this year.  A few weeks back when he got 5 votes in the coaches award against St Kilda, Warwick Green didn't list him in the best and said that Marshall beat him. The Herald Sun has been even harder on him, but at least they gave him the three this week. He'll get 3 Brownlow votes - nothing surer, but I think if Grundy was given 8 for Friday night, against an underdone Bellchambers then Gawn was at least a 9 for his effort against a fully fit and very in form opponent.

That Brayshaw could finish 5th shows you just how bad we were this year. 

Coming off a top 3 brownlow finish his season was probably not far behind TMacs in terms of disappointment of the year .

I'd be staggered if he gets 1 vote this year

QED. 

about right in my recollection of the year.  

Big Max must win the B&F by a fair margin
