well he was the only one who played all 22 games, so not surprising

Rooey based it on the next hypothetical game where he would line up; and not only the 22 as you point out.

    So Gawn and Oliver "tie" on 464 votes.  What are the odds of that?  We hardly get brownlow ties in a 1-2-3 system of voting, which is akin to a sprint.  Yet we are supposed to believe that there was a dead-heat in this marathon?  Rigged.  They didn't tie, but the club thought it was convenient that they did.

     

    Frost 9th.  What a joke.  Probably had 464.1 votes until Goody came in with his eraser.  Might have been a triple dead-heat?

     

     

    An absolute rort.

    Poor old TGR.  Not unlike Sam Newman, he's suffering terribly from Relevance Deprivation Syndrome and is forced into making more and more ridiculous statements in at attempt to gain some attention.

    RDS can be a good thing depending on the IQ of the audience.

    Which is why it’s only happened once in our entire history. 

     

    Im struggling to see your point. Even IF what you allege is accurate , and it well might be, you can be damn sure all clubs do that . But your anger seems very directed at our club only. 

    Re Frost,  he clearly divides opinions. Personally I love him and wish we could work around his assets more as they’re very unique. But as coaches and casting votes post game,  how the hell do you rate his brilliance against his deficiencies and how well he gets the job done. I’m sure votes for him are wildly divided also. Do u rate his 6 excellent intercept marks and 5 running bursts from the backline higher than the 5 times he gave up goals thru poor positioning or turnovers. Top 10 finish is about right for frosty imo.

    I don't know what you are on, but please tell us    it seems to be really good [censored]

    Frost was good and exciting to watch, but maybe the goals kicked from his turnovers or poor decisions had some impact on his votes

    I suppose the only thing missing from this left-field conspiracy theory is motive.

    Why on earth would anyone want to rig a B&F to ensure a tie?

     

    In fact, it would be in the club's benefit to not have a tie as you can bet that now both Gawn and Oliver will be receiving a little bonus in their contract for winning and Best and Fairest.  Would be much cheaper to have one winner.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
