3 St kilda players?

Please. 

 

Marshall was outstanding. The other two don't deserve votes

Both coaches agreed to give votes to two of the three St Kilda players. You could throw a blanket over another 15 players for the remaining single votes.

 

Steele was very impressive too - top rated player on the ground (by Player Ratings) and clearly the number 1 pressure player on the ground.

May has now picked up 25 votes (of his 26 season votes) in the last five matches.

I think Trac should have 17-18 Brownlow votes.  Daicos will have about 24 votes and is clearly the favourite.  Merrett is a smoky but has now firmed in betting 

It will be interesting to see if May gets the umpires vote for this game.

Defenders have traditionally not polled over well in the Brownlow but that was an outstanding Bachman's game worthy of the maximum.

 

I’d happily argue Wanganeen, Steele and Marshall were all better than Brayshaw.

Wanganeen is exactly the type of player we have been screaming out for for 5 years


1 vote for Brayshaw? Seems like at least one of these coaches doesn't know anything about football 😝

Wonder how Max and Brodie are feeling that the opposition ruck got 7 coaches votes? Hopefully fired up

It didn't fire them up after Jackson whooped both of them

Bachman?  Johann Sebastian or maybe Carl Phillip Emanuel?

Thanks mono, I usually pick up typos but .....

Anyway, I'd go for Johann Sebastian .

I think Maysie was BOG on the night, but the umps will give CP5 the 3 Brownlow votes followed by Maysie with 2 and 1 to Marshall.

Really? I thought you'd prefer to be takin' care of business with the Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Or maybe attending a tea party with Michelle.

I'm opting more for the gracious lifestyle of The Manor these days LDC.

The vote split by coach:

  • 5/5 May
  • 3/4 Marshall and Petracca
  • 2/2 Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera
  • 1/0 Steele and Brayshaw

With the exception of the '1' vote the coaches saw it almost identically.

Hope 'Uncle Bitter' doesn't get too used to the gracious lifestyle...this board wouldn't be the same without his always entertaining and occasionally irreverent posts...☺️

And, @WalkingCivilWar may not recognise the new 'Uncle Bitter' to irreverently spar with...

  • 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.
