Take with a grain of salt but there's a rumour doing the rounds that Petracca has been asked to stay on the Gold Coast by Gil and the execs, who counted the votes early to ensure broadcast access to the victor. All but confirming that Petracca has, at the very least, tied the thing.

Here’s a screenshot of the ‘text’ that was posted to BF that started that rumour...  my money is on a betting company is behind it.

I managed to put a very little on him about 8 weeks ago.

Only got 15 to 1   but its probably better than what he is now but not as good as the start of the season.

Come on Tracca !!


If Petracca has won the Brownlow it  would have been best if they surprised him at home. With a delayed telecast they could have got him out of bed and presented him with the Medal. with his PJ's on...  It would have been some viewing. 

1968 Bob Skilton has been woken from his bed and told that he had won the Brownlow .polling 24 votes.

 

 

Perhaps I’ve missed it but surprised there hasn’t been much chat about Trac’s Brownlow chances. Hasn’t polled well historically but he just stood out this year. Wouldn’t surprise me if he is in it up to his neck

 

Also, have heard rumours that he has been ‘requested to stay in QLD’ for the vote. No confidence in the rumour but I’ll take any excitement I can get at the moment.

This thread is about Petracca. 

 

This thread is about the Brownlow count, tonight

Ben Gibson is a star.
 

Very good Brownlow preview on the MFC website.  

Can see him being poached and unleashed with a nice budget and support crew by a club with money to burn in a few years.

Sounds like bollocks. If any shred of truth to this it would be that the afl want the predicted top several or so in a room together for broadcast purposes. Very unlikely given the number of wins we had that Trac will have polled enough to tie with or better Neale.

Agree. Just passing on information

Wouldn’t read into Trac being asked to stay in QLD. Haven’t all favorites been asked to stay in/travel to QLD for the event? Got mentioned on some footy show today that Boak is flying up to QLD today.

Tipping Trac to finish 4th. Had a great season but Neale was a level above.

Put a 20 on Trac this morning at $8, he’s $7 atm.

I think Neale is a level below...

Not a match winner for me/game influencer/changer for me... Too much cheap ball and stats are a false commodity and don’t tell the real story. Commentary around his game i believe is well over blown!

Petracca would be a well deserved winner!

It’s a race for second. Neale will get the Lions votes and easily get 25-27 votes.  
 

Petracca should attract the umpires attention like a Dusty or Dangerfield.  I hope he does get at least the 18 or 19 votes he deserves and reward him for a great year.  

If we had of won 3 more games I reckon Trac would win the medal. Not enough wins to get enough 3 votes

He is great value in the market without Neale (about $3). Menegola is the other one to watch tonight - I think he’ll lead Geel and is a smoky at huge odds.


How could the umpires not be charmed by the disarming smile of a handsome young lad like Trac? Give him the 3 votes umps!!!!

Done deal. ?

Petracca should get votes again for the Pies game.  It depends on whether it’s him or Oliver with the 3 votes.  
 

Gil mc will of course build up the tension as Trac and Oliver get votes 

 

“ Melbourne. C ... “. (Petracca or Oliver) 

It went as predicted

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

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

As predicted

On 10/13/2020 at 9:33 AM, spirit of norm smith said:

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

As predicted.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
