AFLCA Champion Player - knife's edge

AFLCA votes in the last 2 rounds are held over as secret. After RD21, the leader board was:

  • 88 Miller, Neale
  • 86 Oliver, Petracca
  • 75 Cripps, Rozee

I don't think Neale would have received votes in Rd22 and certainly not last night.
GC got thrashed last week, so I doubt Miller was in the votes

I'd be confident that Oliver got some votes last night, and maybe some against Carlton. Trac possibly too.
I think Cripps and Rozee are too far behind.

If Miller doesn't get in the votes this week (GC are playing Nth, so easily possible), then I'd put money on Clarry taking home a 2nd consecutive award.

    What about the Brownlow?

    Lots of pundits have Neale two votes ahead Clayton before last night.

    Could we see a tight race and perhaps Oliver wins it with the last round votes?

    I think Clarry would be happy to leave both prizes behind for another medal in September

    When Clarry looks back on his career, he will acknowledge and appreciate all his achievements. But I get he feeling that because he knows he isn't a great media performer, he dislikes having to do all the public stuff that comes with the awards. 

    Also, I am of the opinion that there won't be too many AFL-wide awards for Dees players during this era. We have too many players playing at the peak of their powers, all at the same time. Trac, Clarry, Max, Gus, May, Viney, etc... all taking votes from each other. I will be very glad to be wrong and would love to see some of them rewarded. But Premierships count so much more.

    Clearly if it’s fair dinkum then Oliver gets 10 votes last night.  Fagan might give Neale one vote if he’s generous.  

    Pretty even performance from our boys. If I was Goody I'd give Clarry maximum to look after him. Certainly would be undeserved votes

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
