Thats the question. Can anyone catch Chris Judd. His form is just unbelievable, which has led to him becoming the shortest price Brownlow medal favourite after Round 8 in history. He leads my medal by a staggering 5 votes, with daylight a distant second. Well, actually Jimmy Bartel is leading the pack of chasers, but I dont think anyone can catch Judd. He is just unbelievable.

C. Judd - 16

J. Bartel - 11

A. McLeod - 9

C. Cornes - 9

D. Kerr* - 9

S. Thompson - 9

S. West - 9

For those that are interested, the best placed Melbourne player is a long way back. Aaron Davey and Matthew Bate are both on 3 votes.

i actually think judd would have a few less due to kerr, especially early when kerr was the better of the 2, bartell would be right up there and possibly with a few more than 11

but who knows how the maggots see it, they cant see the right desicions on the field

now they know kerr's ineligible they'll probably just stop giving him votes, and starting giving them to judd instead

That didnt happen last year.

Quite right Tess, it is the duty of the umpires to vote on players no matter if they are inelgible or not. Obviously they do vote for ineligible players, otherwise there would never have been the Corey McKernan incident.

i shoudl've put a laughing face next to it, though i thought it was clear i was only having a laugh. lesson learnt!

He missed out on a ridiculous amount of votes. Yes, he got some still after being suspended but he didn't get as many as he deserved. They are very wary of who is ineligiable.
