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.

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

clarry to come home strong and win it

Can confirm, I’m also hearing this. 

(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

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

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
