What are your tips for the brownlow??...Obviously the generic Ablett jnr, Bartel and Cornes x2 names are going to come up? Who will poll best for MFC? Junior imo...although his flamboyance or lack thereof could be detrimental. Theres always trapper, bruce etc.

cheers,

 

1st - Gary Ablett

2nd - Jonathon Brown

3rd - Jimmy Bartel

Not sure who will poll well for us though :(

i dont think brown will poll as well as expect maybe 16-19 votes but not over the 20 mark which he will need for top 3, Ablett is a near certainty i think he is so noticeable with the ball etc....

1ST ABLETT

2ND HARVEY

3RD CORNES

Best dee i put $5 on Jones at $5 his shaved head might help lol hoping he can bring my home $25 he could get a few 1's in our losing games.....

 

1 Ablett

2 C Cornes, j Brown

3 Bartell, harvey

I can't see junior or jones polling well, even though they were our best 2, i think white or green will poll ok for us.

These are the only games where we have a chance of polling.

Round 2 - Hawthorn (Bruce)

Round 6 - Port (Bate, Yze)

Round 7 - Bulldogs (Davey, Johnstone)

Round 9 - Kangaroos (Bruce, Bizzell)

Round 10 - Adelaide (Green, Bruce, Bell)

Round 11 - Collingwood (Robbo, McLean)

Round 13 - Essendon (McDonald, Sylvia, Johnstone)

Round 14 - Carlton (McDonald, White, Robbo)

Round 19 - Dogs (Holland, Jones, Johnstone)

Round 20 - Pies (Jones, Johnstone)

Round 22 - Carlton (Johnstone, Robbo, McLean)

She's going to be a very quiet brownlow night fronm our perspective. TJ, Bruce, Junior and Robbo to be our leading vote getters.


I've put $100 on Kane Cornes at 14-1.

$50 on Scotty Thompson for top 5 at 41-1.

$50 on Dane Swan for top 5 at 31-1.

Come on Kane.

jacey, if i were you i'd be barracking for scotty t more than kane cornes...

I had a look at ST stats and i've a feeling Mcleod, Goodwin and Edwards will pinch some votes but 41-1 is too tempting.

I've gotta a good feeling about Kane though. Isn't half the [insert profanity] his brother is. Hope the umps notice that too.

 

I couldnt give a stuff about the Brownlow cos we have had a [censored] year

However, I will tune in tonight becuase The Chaser are possiblyt going to cause trouble

Cmon Scotty T.

I will be cheering all the way for him, the handy 1000 dollar return for his top 5 finish would come handy.

Haha...hadn't thought of that.

If robbo polls the best/very well for us it either means:

1) You dont need to be a midfielder

2) You need to be a big name and lesser knowns (junior, jones) have no hope

3) Our midfield is overrated and/or goes unnoticed

ive got money on Thompson top 5 ($41) and Thompson highest Adelaide vote getter ($9).

I couldn't find anyone worth backing for our highest vote getter, was guna back TJ, but thought i could get more than $4.50 so didn't bother.

Byron Pickett. Has it in the bag!

We actually have not polled one single vote, have we?

I can't remember being THAT bad.. ? :(:unsure:



Well Jeff White and Robbo (and their gorgeous partners) are there.. maybe Robbo is sitting with the Bulldogs?

 

We are there - have seen Robbo and his shoes, Brad Green and Jeff White all strutting their stuff on the red carpet with their better halves. No sign of TJ or Dutchy at this stage.........

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
