    Was laughing at the Daicos missed votes earlier but I’m [censored] now. Tracc should have got atleast 2 vs North

    North game 2 and Sydney game 2 also.

    Robbed.

    They sure had that medal ready to go quickly in Brisbane.

    As good as it would have been for Trac to win, you've gotta feel for the Bont. Seriously dudded twice

    Dogs lost too many games in the end.

    Does anyone expect a fair count? The umps cannot get the basic decisions right, how can they adjudge the best player.. 

    Exactly. That's why the Brownlow is over-rated, on account of the fools that decide it.

    This award has lost its magic, but well done to Tracc and Vines. 

    AFL football has lost its magic.

    I hate the Brownlow these days. The wrong midfielder won it, again. Change the voting system. Why don't the clubs all make it an issue and get it done?

    24 votes for Viney is bloody fantastic

    4 umpires now. Surely it would be better if they should each give 3 2 1 votes without conferring with each other.   Better still to not use the umps at all.

    Far out! That was frustrating!

    Jack Viney 3 votes against Sydney was a mystery.

    Angus Brayshaw 3 votes against North Melbourne was also bizarre.

    But oh well.

    Lachie Neale from the Lions is a well deserved winner.

    Pretty confident Christian Petracca will win the Demons' Best & Fairest this year though at least.

    Gus had 37 versus North. He deserved 3. But Hunter and Fritta over Trac against North and Sydney is a joke.

    Good. Nick Daicos and his Dad give off 'Andy Murray and his mother' vibes. I prefer Christian and his nona. Less in your face.

    Trac fkking robbed in the last 7 rounds 

    the umps count touches not influence. they shouldn’t be allowed to check stats. If we had a fwd line and Trac played 70% midfield he’d have 34 votes easy

    Yes agreed, Trac's vote-getting drop-off coincided with him spending more time forward with the petty and melky injuries. Pretty rough because he showed extraordinary power in several games to turn things our way.

    So many cheap votes for Neale and so many votes robbed from Trac 

    Bont robbed. That 3 for Neale for a 20 possie game, when Kelly 42 and Coniglio 38 no votes is pathetic.

    2nd year in a row that 2 Dees the highest 2 from any club.

    Have said it for some time, the Brownlow is increasingly becoming a mediocre award to win. It no longer goes to the ‘best’ player in the league anymore.

    Melbourne players aside, the Bont had a much better year than Neale, as did Butters, Gulden and even Daicos.

    May as well call it the best midfielders award too btw.

    Until they stop the umps picking the votes this will continue to decline into an irrelevant award

    anyone honestly think they can be aware of who is playing well when there are 100 new rules and tweaks and coping abuse over the fence. and now with 4 you only see half the ground

    Trac's kicking for goal most likely cost him the medal.

    Rather he wins the Norm Smith again.  Didn't cost him that one.  Just needs another season like that.

    2 Norm Smith's Vs 2 Brownlows?

    Agree.

    Hunter.  Lots of nothing possessions.

    Fritsch played 5 minutes in the last quarter.  

    Trac carried us over the line in BOTH games

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
