THE AFL has on Wednesday announced the 2021 Charles Brownlow Medal Count will commence at 5:30pm AWST / 7:30pm AEST on Sunday September 19, broadcast live on the Seven Network.

2021 marks the 94th year the Charles Brownlow Medal will be awarded to the league’s fairest and best player with five state-based venues across the country set to host players for the count, including a Western Australian event held at Optus Stadium.

Invited players will attend the location closest to where they are currently residing.  

 

This is what the bye week was? For this? Sheesh

Generally the worst footy related entertainment of the year.  Will only be good if a dee wins.

 

It's Clarry's to lose.

1st Oliver

2nd Petracca

3rd Gawn

2 or 3 way tie with Oliver and or either Wines and or either  Bontempelli for mine!


Bont for mine. Mr Nice-guy. 

I don't understand why this isn't on the 12th or 13th to give the media time to focus on the brownlow winner.

Anyway I think the top 5 will be:
Wines
Oliver
Bont
Steele
Petracca

Ditto 

 

Would love to see Clarry win it. Deserving IMO.

But I think it will go to Wines. Apart from Boak he doesn't have the level of competition for votes that Clayton has with Gawn, Trac, Lever etc.

Edited by Young Blood

The way the umpires fawn over the Bont, you can already tell he's got it in the bag. 

Oliver will be lucky to finish top 3.


I'd expect Little Lord Fauntleroy of Essendon to poll well.  He played some outstanding games this year.

Oliver should win it but won't IMO.  Clarry isn't popular with the umps when compared to Bont.

Or as popular with opposition players evidently,  Wasn't even top 5 in the AFLPA MVP.  What an absolute joke. Talk about a popularity contest.

I think it's OK to be a hardcore, one-eyed, Demon fan and also be able to acknowledge that Bontempelli is a fantastic player who has had a very, very good year. 

Bont
Wines
Oliver

It’s gonna be one boring events. Two clubs with 75 people each who can’t drink and can’t mingle. Fun times. 
Brownlows are boring at the best of times. This will be a total hoot. Just hope Clarry is in the mix late to keep it exciting. 


Meggs anticipates Ollie Wines to vote very strongly but expects Jack Steele to surprisingly pilfer the Charlie. With 5 All Australians, Meggs can’t see one of Clarry, Trac, Gawn, Lever or May accruing sufficient votes to win it.  But he’s still hopeful one of them can…after all it’s the year of the Dees!

Why do you refer to yourself in the third person, Meggs?   

faulty was also a little surprised by this.

Not really fussed about a Brownlow Medal.

If Clayton Oliver, Christian Petracca or Max Gawn win one it would be nice. 

However, I would much rather prefer them with Premiership medallions and one of them winning a Norm Smith Medal though!

Its true really, we all remember what happened a week later when Woewodin won the Brownlow in 2000...

TBH Clarry had the un/fortunate challenge of being surrounded by Tracc/Gawn/Viney who most certainly challenged his contributions. Having said that, ONLY a freak of competition like Oliver could have polled so well. Bont is the same in some regard, but not to the level that Clarry has done.

To stand out amongst the all-Australian talent within the team says something..

Ollie Wines for me, Bont second.

Clarrie will fly home in the last eight rounds but early on Tracc, Gawn, TMac, Lever, Salem and Langdon will have their fair share of votes.

I'll be shocked if Lever gets any votes. He should, but umpires seem incapable of giving votes to anyone who doesn't start in the middle of the ground.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
