Last time we had a brownlow winner in the GF was Woey and we finished second. If we get the winner this year we could even it up to 15 all 

Malcolm Blight gave his tip for the brownlow this morning on SEN and his ti[p was a draw. Olly and Trac and he was serious, said it would be the first time two players from the same club have tied in the award.

Sometimes players win the brownlow and their team does not even appear in the finals or if they do they don't play in the Grand Final

I suppose I could look this up, but who was the last player to win the Brownlow when his team didn't make the finals? I'll open the bidding with Bob Skilton, but I assume there have been others since then.


For the first time in VFL/AFL history two players from the same club tie - Oliver/Petracca.

The first 11 rounds are gonna be fun viewing. Reckon Trac will be first, Clarry second or third and Salem top 10

(Haha - I think - ET)

Anyways, if it happens, I wouldn't mind it being Bontompelli and Macrae - for them, the distraction, and for Oliver and Petracca, the extra, 'we'll-show-'em!' spur!


Sorry to burst your bubble. 
Trac and Clarrie joint runners up. 
Max gets the 3 versus Geelong and wins by one -last vote of the night

most fair result seems to be a 6 way tie between Oliver, Petracca, Bont, Wines, Steele and Gawn

Christian Petracca/Clayton Oliver $26.00 if you want to take it.

The man is left field for sure.

But let’s also remember, his lateral thinking on occasion has paid off in spades!


Footscray can have The Brownlow as a distraction. I am only interested in next Saturday 

The Brownlow means nothing to me ever since Dipperdemenico won it in 1986

Since when was that Thug ever the Fairest Player in a season??

Absolute waste of time

I'm interested in how MFC players scored in the Brownlow in our 10 Premierships in 25 years (1939 - 1964).

1939 - Jack Mueller eq 10th (* ineligible)

1940 - Ron Baggott eq 10th

1941 - No MFC player in top 10

1948 - Alby Rodda eq 10th

1955 - Denis Cordner eq 4th

1956 - Ron Barassi eq 4th

1957 - John Beckwith 6th

1959 - Bob Johnson eq 7th

1960 - John Beckwith eq 5th

1964 - Hassa Mann eq 8th

... and some wonder why we have a such a deep-rooted disrespect for umpires' judgement!

Out of sheer desperation my friends and I are playing a drinking game tonight where we drink every time our club’s Brownlow favourite gets a vote. 
My friends barrack for Essendon Carlton and Sydney. 
I’m going to be plastered.

 

TBH I had forgotten it was on after having spent most of the day looking at the nuances (or lack thereof) of Dan's plan.

Good luck young Oliver but I expect he may have too many team mates pulling votes off him.

It will be sweet if we top the team votes. Not sure if we have done that since the glory days.

Lots

Peter Moore did it for us.

In the old days players from lesser clubs were often favoured as they had less competition from team mates. Not sure why that has turned around but I suppose the game does not allow individual dominance like it once did.

  • 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?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

  • NON-MFC: Round 10

    The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
