    I've long been a fan of Brownlow night, but it is increasingly becoming a tiresome experience to sit through. Things I'm not looking forward to tonight include:

    • The boss's brother pretending he is best mates with all of the players: "Trac", "Bont", "Daics", "Crippa".
    • The collective circle jerk performed by the media every time a member of the Daicos family appears or is mentioned. 
    • Any segment created for the sole purpose of giving air time to Rebecca Maddern or Abbey Holmes.
    • Any "content" sponsored by the league's official betting partner.
    • Any segments involving Auskickers.
    • Any fan voted award that allows Richmond or Collingwood supporters to vote en masse for their favourite player.
    • The telecast going well past 11pm when it should be done by 10:30pm.

    All I want to see are some highlights from each round, the votes then a summary every 6-7 rounds, and a quick chat to 3-4 players. Should be done in less than 2 hours, including the winner's speech.

    As for the winner, hard not to see Bontempelli winning given Daicos was sadly injured late in the year.

    So it sounds like your pumped for the Red Carpet session Poita :)

    And the winner will always be a midfielder. Time for actual footy experts, not umpires, to hand out the votes.

    Trac is an excellent player. Very powerful and great in the contest. he can turn games.

    But he butchers the ball regularly. Terrible set shot for an elite player. Bont or Daicos don't waste possessions at anything like the rate Trac does.

    Still, Petracca has had 62 scoring shots to Bontempelli's 33.

    Over the last 2 years Petracca has had 50 more score involvements than the next best player, i.e. 410 to 360.

    Let that sink in.  Fifty more score involvements than the player coming second over 2 seasons.

    He gets marked harshly, Petracca.

    FWIW - strong tip that Petracca gets up.

    I’m not suggesting anything here.. Luke Jackson purchased a house for his mum and then requested a trade back to WA and moved into said home with his mum. Just saw he took his mum to the Brownlow. Totally unrelated, but I might watch the original “psycho” movie after the Brownlow.

    I would be VERY surprised if Trac is sub 25, let alone sub 20.

    Luke Jackson must be very inept with the ladies if he's bringing his mum to the Brownlow.

    Is every channel seven "personality" doing an opening speech? Revolting. I think I'll turn off the radio and follow the tracker instead.

    Hey! Let’s pick on one of the rare WAGs who isn’t botoxed to the eyeballs, who isn’t wearing makeup that was put on with a trowel and who clearly hasn’t troubled a cosmetic surgeon. Way to go 👍🏽

    The umpires award. Who gives a rats. A lot of umps haven’t even played the game 

    MVP and coaches award a lot more meaningful. 

    Still, Ill be happy for Trac if he gets up

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
