    I personally think Clarry is the best mid in the league , but I fear Trac and Gawn will take votes off him and make it difficult for him to win the medal.

    Having said that I put a nice bet on Clayton at the start of the season and will be riding him home.

    If not, then a Norm Smith medal will look just as good around his neck.

    We've been there before in 2018.  Gawn won the coaches award and should've polled better than he did (20 votes), but Brayshaw got 21 and Oliver 13.

    Trac could well be winning it at round 11. 

    Bont will pass him by round 20

    Clarry to come home strong and win it. His second half of the season was ridiculous

    Anyone have any 'smokies'?

    While not polling well with coaches Andrew Brayshaw has by some accounts had a very good year.

    Would laugh if he came 3rd!!

    Not sure if you'd call them smokies, but Jack Steele and Sam Walsh have each had very good years with very few team mates likely to steal votes from them. I recognise that Weitering and McKay are likely to be all-Australians but as they are both key position players, I assume that won't translate into many Brownlow votes for either.

    If Touk Miller hadn't been suspended, I would have included him in this group, too.

    The umpires [censored] up all weekend every single week. Why do we suddenly value their opinion and give this stupid award so much prestige on Brownlow night?


     

    If Oliver wins it’s a very great award.

    His game v Crows in Adelaide (a loss due to home-ground umpiring but hey - stick it up your woolly jumper) may well be one of the best of any player in our lifetime.

    If anyone else wins it'll be dead-set theft.

    Whenever we needed something this year it was Oliver that got us rolling near every time.
    He's a machine and his will to win is off the charts.
    I don't even care he's hack kick any more.
    Gawns had a quiet year and Tracs in and out of the game.
    By rights all things being equal Oliver should lead our side in the voting easily.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
