Toast Welcome to the Temple of Bontempelli, please take off your shoes and pay your respects

Actually he was pretty close in 2008, although suspended.

And he kicked over 100 goals. Anything short of top 2 would be a joke

Fev nearly kicked 100 goals the same year, is it a joke he wasn't near top 2?

Not getting 100 goals robbed him of at least 17 votes, he'd be filthy at that

He should be filthy at Clarko. What a prick.

Depends on what you define near as. Because there would be a definition he’d be near top 2.

But Fev is a different and inferior player to Buddy so it’s not as outrageous. Hard to argue he’d be outside the top 12 you’d think though.

To quote Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross Coffee is for Closers and yesterday Marcus Bontempelli took a giant swig.

Was kinda funny they didn't want him to get 100 as well in that game, but just for the theatre of the game it would have been fantastic if he did

Whateley just said it will be announced tonight on 360

Wasn’t announced, sure it was tonight?

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Flashed across the screen that it’s announced tomorrow night on 360

 

[Oliver G]

Wasn’t announced, sure it was tonight?

Yeah wasn't announced which is strange. The last few years it has been the Monday following the final round.

 

[gangsta deluxe]

We got a fair run, they should’ve done it tonight given it is clearly Bont

 

[charcoalchicken]

He is a huge chance for the brownlow imo, though dunkley and macrae will be polling well as well one would think

 

[mcgleereturns]

I feel like his chances of winning were sort of discounted because of our lack of winning ( although I don’t get how often Cripps polled when his side was s**t last year and earlier this year) and because the media/bookies are so dumb and completely ignore us, have failed to notice that we had a big run of wins Bont has been pivotal in and haven’t adjusted his chances. 29 votes in the Herald Sun win and almost certainly over 100 votes in winning the Coaches award surely gives him some form to be a chance.

Bont always polls we’ll, this year been his best by a mile. Very confident he wins the Brownlow and will be wagering accordingly.

I almost never bet on footy but couldn't resist the $13 about 6 weeks ago. Went each way, reckon he's a pretty healthy chance of finishing top 3.

Can anyone envisage Paddy Dow, LDU or Cerra being an AA, leading their team to a flag, winning the B&F and getting 20 Brownlow votes next year?

Just incredible that he was able to do all that at the age of 20 in just his 3rd season.

What a privilege it has been to watch this supremely talented young man run around in a Red, White and Blue jumper.

I never thought I would love a player as much as I loved Chris Grant but Bont has gone past him for me.

Think he will be an AFL great, not just a club great, especially if he snags a couple more premierships for us.

What time does AFL 360 come on TV? Can’t watch it anyway, but just want to know when the final votes are announced and all the “BoNt Is OvErRaTeD” comments fire up

Do we think he beats Macrae n Dunkley for the charlie sutton club b&f?

Winning the AFL coaches award is an indication Bevo thinks he had a good year. Depends how the other two go in Games Bont didn’t poll well in.

Finals count too. That’s why Hawkins beat Hardie in 85

Given the club b&f voting system suits those who play very well consistently my guess would be Macrae then Bont then Dunkley with Crozier a top 3 chance.

Don’t see either of those guys doing it.

(Dunks would be poor in the first quarter of the year, Jacko mystifyingly doesn’t poll well in the B&F - remember that year when he had a terrific year and JJ with a middling season beat him?)

I could see Crozier or Naughton in world where structural dependence and coaches instructions being followed and generally playing your role are weighed higher in the B&F. Bont though usually does those things pretty well as well.

Macrae has always polled well in the CSM. Only reason Hunter beat him (by just 1 vote) last year was he played more games.

No it was because he kept kicking it to Hunter and boosted Lachie’s stats. He said so at the BnF
