As much as Iโ€™d love this to happen, he has nothing to worry about. At most itโ€™s a fine. And tbh I reckon Boak has gone past Trac in the last few weeks

ย 

Love to see Trac end the year on a high with a BOG effort this weekend. ย Heโ€™s had a great year. ย He might match Gus with a bronze medal in the Brownlow count.ย 
ย 

I think they have been managing his workloadย for the last 4 games and played him more as a forward/midfielder. ย 

Anyone know if he polled the coaches votes?

neale has been average the last couple of weeks

 

Age votes for Dees v Giants were May, Langdon, Gawn, Petracca, Kelly. ย ย 

AFL Website has Petracca as our 3rd best.
ย 

He might sneak a vote especially with the goal he kicked to end the first quarter. ย 
ย 

ย 

He was handy. Defender and rucks donโ€™t traditionally poll well so he is a good chance of one or two.

I donโ€™t think they release the coaches votes to the public for the last two rounds until after the winner is announced.ย

Yes is it so the coaches donโ€™t cheat a little and sneak in a vote for their man !ย 

Definitely a Brownlow fancy, but I think he will finish 2nd orย 3rd behind Neale and maybe Boakย

Unfortunately I agree. Think Boak has gone past him. Letโ€™s hope both throw punches this week and cop a week ??

I could see him getting a vote for last game but yeah I'm thinking a podium finish at this stage.ย 


Boak and Neale have played on their home ground this season, while Trac hasn't.ย  Hes done twice as much travel as either of them.

Tracs season has been way more impressive than either of them and he should be awarded an extra 10 brownlow votes for playing away all season while the other two guys played in Adelaide and Brisbane all year.

He may win it anyway but if he doesn't it will have a giant asterisk next to it.

Neale, Daylight, Boak, Jack Steele, Trac...

The coaches votes leader boarder after rnd 16:

  • 85 Neal
  • 69 Boak
  • 62 Petracca
  • 61 Steele
  • 58 T Adams
ย  ย 

The votes for rnd 17 weren't published and rnd 18 votes will be held up until the Award announcement.

Neale will win.ย  Boake will probably get votes in the last few rounds as will Petracca and Steele.ย 

So if the umpire's votes correlate to the coaches every chance Petracca is top 3 in the Brownlow.ย

Possibly a vote yesterday v bombers. ย 

Strangely the bombers getting close might rob him of the vote as the umps might go with Langdon or Gawn and put Shiel in the voting.ย 
ย 

I actually think Trac has struggled over the last 5 weeks not in form but in fitness. ย I think he might have a slight injury that is being managed by goody and burgo. ย He had been put forward for a large section of games (like the Saints game) and whilst he has been good, he hadnโ€™t been in the engine room as much as earlier in the year. ย

Neale $1.25 favourite wow

Probably 3 votes again last night. ย Should have 24-25 votes. Wow indeed. In 17 rounds. ย  I see him as a clear winner from Boak, Steele, Danger & Trac.ย

Nothing a 2 week break won't fix !!!

If he plays well and we win more games the votes will take care of themselves.ย  Since he started well umpires will notice him more as that is human nature.

Surely you are not suggesting that some umpires are humanย ????

Not sure where else to put this.

A mate has messaged me saying Tom Browne has claimed Carlton is actively pursuing Petracca because apparently he is unhappy.

I called BS given he signed a contract in Feb. Plus search across Twitter, Bigfooty, Google, everywhere has yielded zero results. Nothing on Tom Browne Twitter either.

Asked him where he heard it and he's stalling. Is he pulling my chain?

Is Jack Steele to biggest danger to Neale? ย Saints won enough games and Steele was right in the heat of the action. Clearly no other player likely to take votes off him.ย 
I think itโ€™s Neale, Steele, Boak and the Trac as top 4. ย No surprises there!ย

Reckon Boak finishes second. Trac and Steele I reckon finish within a vote or two of each other.ย

And Carlton in the mix again!

No wonder they are cold on DeGoey also.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    โ€œMax Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.โ€ - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasnโ€™t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus Oโ€™Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, thereโ€™s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demonsโ€™ poor use of the football, itโ€™s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbellโ€™s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
