A fairly similar coach vote for top 3 honours.   Interesting that 3 of our defenders got votes.  They deserve it - a record number of intercept marks.
 
Split
5/5 Petracca
4/3 Oliver and May
2/0 Dawson and Lever
1/0 Langdon and Brayshaw

Oliver now has a big lead.  Will be interested to see how many Brownlow votes he has after round 16.
Petracca equal third

    Incredible season by Oliver thus far, and extraordinary to have Trac within a few votes of 2nd place. 2 players in top 4 this deep into the season is great to see.

    Pfffft what would AFL coaches know about who played well?  According to opposition fans on Facebook he only gets 30 backwards handpasses a game and doesn't hurt the opposition.  They'd know more than the coaches wouldn't they?

    Hopefully, the umpires are switched on and give Oliver the Brownlow votes he deserves.

    I still find it baffling that footy fans rate/like players not from their team eg Cripps, Danger, Dusty, Bontempelli, Neale etc etc but don't rate or like Oliver.

    Agreed. I was out for lunch yesterday with a couple of Carlton supporting mates, who were baffled by the level of my delight when asked about Clarry's 7 year deal.

    Oliver likely to win b2b coaches awards is rare air. I think Ablett Jnr was the last player to do so.

    Forget back to back, Ablett Jnr is the ONLY player to win more than one coaches award over the course of an entire career.

    Clarry will be in rare company if he continues this form.

    Out of curiosity, went and had a look at the complete list. Ablett Jr won it three times in consecutive years (2007-2009). Interestingly, Simon Goodwin won it in 2006.

    To state the obvious, it's a list of very good players: https://aflcoaches.com.au/awards/the-aflca-champion-player-of-the-year-award

    Despite his flat patch petracca sits equal 3rd in the coaches award. When he is on he is unstoppable.

    And whats even scarier is that he will probably clean up is kicking a bit more, goalkicking a bit more. And when he gets even more confidence and experience, he will exit stoppage and move to the right places even more. There is no question on his contested dominance. He is probably only 2nd to Diesel - but that was a different era arguably at the end of his career he may just be the GOAT. 

    Trac is a bit more balanced in contested / uncontested footy, which is fine. You have to have different types of players in the middle. But even his clearance play, explosiveness and sheer power will go down in history. 

    Add Viney and Gawn into that mix and we have a centre square line-up that is truly remarkable.

    with clarry already on 83 points he's likely to break the points record, too

    Another sensational year from Clarry.  I think we have Clarry polling Brownlow votes in at least 9 (maybe 11) of our 15 games so far.  Likely only issue is if he gets the 3,2,1.  I think C……Petracca will be the one to take votes off Clarry.  Guys like Brayshaw, Neale, Miller and Cripps won’t have another star taking votes.

    I reckon Gawn has 4 x 3 vote games so far as well.  Port, Giants, Hawthorn and Swans.

    There will be others taking votes...Walsh at Carlton for example poles well, not sure how Rowell is going this season at GC.

    Neale will be the one though, a bit of an umpires pet.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
