It's going to be a sad day when he finally hangs up the boots.

Luckily I'll be around 30 years dead.

 

[Bornanbread]

Just watched Boomer say he wants to be back next year....and hoping Brad Scott will give him the thumbs up....had to laugh ... should be the other way around....I hope Boomer is the last man standing.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

LOL.

Boomer is lining up 500.

 

[Marksup]

Hate to bump this thread cause I made it!

But he is a star, seeing very few games a year. What he produced tonight made me appreciate him even more!

We are witnessing more than a legend!

 

[Reverend Shinboner]

I thought tonight was the best defensive game I've seen Boomer play. Was fantastic offensively - again - but I've never seen him busting a gut in the last line of defense as often as he did tonight.

Boomer a massive show IMO now. We've got plenty of 'easy' games coming up for him to cash in on and his run and flair has caught the umpires' eye in past counts.

Pendles/Beams and JPK/Buddy/rest of Sydney's guns could sabotage each other to an extent. Non-mids never win so no Sandi or Buddy. Priddis and Cotchin haven't been in enough wins. Main competition from Selwood and Boak.

Boomer paying $23
NDS $41
Cunners $251

Ablett at $6.50 is great value. He would have 9 best on grounds already plus a few seconds. Just depends on how the umpires vote considering he won it last year & what would be a great game for most players can be just 'average' for him with 33 possessions & a couple of goals.

Few of his big games have been in loses though. I'd say he's got 6-7 BOGs and a few 2s and 1s. Winners lately have close to 30 votes, don't think it will be enough.

NDS came in from $150 during pre season to now $41... Hopefully he puts in some great performances bc umps usually vote for him and i will be a very happy man.

Pretty reasonable mate, guess it just depends what the umpires say. Yours is probably a best case scenario as the umps usually screw up a game or two. Reckon he'll be lucky to get 2 for the Crows game but he could grab a vote from the Hawks game.

yeah agree mate.

games i didn't give him votes for but he could sneak in for 1 vote are

round 10 vs cats
round 11 vs eagles
round 16 vs hawks

Dal Santo will not get near it. Midfielders playing in the backline isn't the formula for Brownlow votes. When he was getting votes at St Kilda he was playing purely midfield and kicking the occasional goal.

Boomer is our best chance and a proven vote getter.

I think Kennedy will win it…….Gray as a smoky.

 

[TwentyNine]

Boomer. We can dream.

 

[Marstermind]

What are the odds of Ablett having enough already to still win it?

 

[TwentyNine]

What are the odds of Ablett having enough already to still win it?

Zilch. I've been running a mock all year, he's ahead but not by nearly enough.

 

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

What are the odds of Ablett having enough already to still win it?

No one's won it with less than 25 votes in the last decade. Doubt he'd have 25 already.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Boomer isn't ready for a Brownlow until 2015 at least.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

If the MRP went over Corey's suspension in 1996 would he now be suspended for it?

Yes. He dropped his knees into someone ffs.

 

[archereleven]

I was talking up boomer as a smoky today, once i heard Jesus was out for the season.

 

[Bigeasy]

Get on Boomer. He will kick 6 this week.

 

[Only Forwards]

Yes. He dropped his knees into someone ffs.

Chris Judd elbowed a guy in the face and still won.
