Cripps should have been rubbed out but he a great player and would love him in our midfield. Clayton at a clear disadvantage he has great mid fielders taking votes off him. It tough on Clarry

Cripps is a good player no doubt. But he didn’t deserve to even be eligible. He concussed a guy who then sat out multiple weeks. If his name is Chandler he cops 4 weeks. Instead he goes on to win the Brownlow. So much for the AFL protecting the head.

Round 23. Brisbane absolutely smashed. 

3 to either Oliver or Petracca 

1 to either Brayshaw , Jackson or Kozzzy

but no way to Neale 

wtf 

Oliver was clearly BOG that day he was possessed,

Cripps: 'I'd rather get 0 touches and win'

He'd still get the bloody three votes though

I have no explanation for it along with Touk Miller's votes against the ferals in a 10 goal loss, it defies any sort of sporting logic.

Don’t watch it and haven’t done so for 15 years. 


So are they going to retrospectively give Corey McKernan and Chris Grant their medals now?

Didnt a player get votes one year when he went off in the 1st quarter one year.

 

 Cripps said loyalty is important & stayed at Carlton and loves playing with his mates  vs Jackson motivation???

Absolute joke of an award. Sydney win by 28 points against I cant remember but other mob get all three votes! Just one of many joke votes.

At least those who know football know who was the standout this year.

You cannot tell me that we win 16 games and our best player is only BOG in 4 of them. 

Absolutely BS 

To be fair, Tracc scored very highly as well. Probably becomes hard for umpires to choose between them. I'm just happy with those two having an outstanding year

I wouldn't have begrudged Cripps a brownlow in his career but this season didn't seem right. Thought he dropped off a bit and the non suspension sucked

Sorry Mr Oliver you only got the 35 touches today that's way down on your normal game total.

Topped the club vote by the look of it.  Think we just pipped Geelong by a couple. Clarry polled in 12 games but not enough best ons unfortunately.

It wouldn't suprise me, nothing does anymore.


You know what I'm proud to have trac and Oliver in my team. They can take votes off each other for years to come because they help us become a successful team

I could be wrong but by my calculations in 2022....A sub got 1 vote and another player who did an ACL in the second quarter also got 2 votes....don't even get me started. I'm out!


Ah Chee and Neale don't approve. So glad Carlton missed finals again.

There's no way this brownlow was above board, there's just no way. Please start the investigation now, we'll stay with this all night if we have to.

 

Cripps did speak well. Id never have picked him to have a fear of speaking & it's good he got help for it.

I'm really not fussed he won it. I'm still surprised Neale got a vote against us in the final round

Agreed. The overturning of his suspension led him to get those final 3 votes

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • 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.
