A yawnfest, or will Big Max take home Charlie tonight? I suspect only if Charlie Spargo is his plus 1.

And should the AFL consider changing the voting, perhaps including the coaches in the voting system?

 

Massive yawnfest. Might switch it on about 1030 tonight so I can get to sleep.

Is it just me or is the Brownlow losing its relevance? It’ll just go to the midfielder who had the most amount of disposals.

I hope so as I put cash on Treloar to surprise everyone paying $21

Lost it relevance years ago.


yawn.......

Is there any award show that isn't a yawn.

Never could understand why people watched them.

As a separate issue there is "the award" itself.  It's nice but..........

Mind you the system is better than the MFC BnF

 

People ringing in SEN saying Max is a shoe in, take it to the bank..........

...ok ...who was it!??

One of the turd polishers?


I suppose I'm boring, but I enjoyed it when it was all about football; I enjoyed reliving the seasons matches.

Now it seems it is about everything but football.  They rush through the rounds as quickly as possible so they can get to the next WAG, musical number or 'comedy' skit.

 

 

It might be seen as a yawnfest to some, but it is still consistently one of the highest rating TV programs of the year. I note the AFL or Channel 7 (or both) have said they are making some changes to it this year to stop it dragging on so long. It will be interesting to see what they are. (Mind you, I won't be watching as I'll be working. But in interests of full disclosure, if I wasn't working I would be watching. I can't explain why, but I always find it strangely compelling.)

My prediction? Patrick Cripps.

And most votes for a Melbourne player: Max Gawn

Seeing as we don't have votes now decided by "Fairest and Best" is there one player in the Supposed Top Ten that would qualify? i wonder.......... 

Our attendees:

Nathan Jones, Max Gawn, Clayton Oliver, Bayley Fritsch, Jack Viney

 

Fritsch there for MOTY, perhaps?

How many more of these would we have seen if he had played forward all year! 

Would love to see him win it, if that is why he is invited.

Just read our best chances on the AFL website, and it says best chance Maxy, then according to the AFL Jesse Hogan is next . Yes it says Jesse Hogan.

WTF!


I know that defenders don't win Brownlow's but given that Rich won 16 games and Dylan Grimes was one of the few that played nearly every game he would have to poll well.  And, not many stars to take votes from him so he would have to be roughy to be on the podium; maybe do a Gus Brayshaw as the Tigers haven't included him to go tonight!

Surely to goodness she doesn't move from the forward line next year. He is a natural forward. Let's hope his time down back has helped him round out his game.


Have to say, Matisse Stynes does  a great job with the media.  Obviously she's had a lot of practice by now, but she speaks really well. 

Just to cheer up all those deespondent folks about the Club's immediate future or previous decades in the football wilderness.

We are ranked second bottom career (cumulative) Brownlow votes of the original twelve clubs making up the Victorian Football League pre-AFL. Eagles are closing fast must be all those hometown votes from umpire Margents ?.

Career Brownlow votes by club
5570 GEEL
5503 COLL
5462 CARL
5418 HAW
5416 ESS
5291 STH/SYD
5065 NTH
5059 WBD
5055 RICH

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
