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.

(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.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
