2025 Brownlow Medal

[HairyO]

Daicos doesnt win - pies fans say the medal has no credibility
Loving the narrative...

Until next year when they are full of irrational exuberance all year and then not.

 

[Obzerva]

Now for the awkward interview

It’s not going to get 3 votes

Genuinely hope some of you were persuaded by all of my Rowell rants

 

[EagleShore]

The kids who watch do buddy.

I didn't notice them being outrageously inappropriate. Can you point to any specific examples of bad behaviour that would unduly influence children to consider getting pissed a great idea?

 

[Randomizor]

I don't understand it, Rowell wins and he wants to congratulate Daicos...

But according to Pies supporters there’s no Daicos bias

 

[Altum Volantes]

Give the man a bag of lawn clippings and send him on his way.

 

[QuietB]

First thing to do; congratulate Nick Daicos on another great year!

Did they show a highlights package?

 

[YeoShuey]

You deserve it and my point stands.

 

[carlton_99]

Feel like Hamish should stand closer to Rowell

 

[Randomizor]

Every player gonna be eating the grass pre-game next year

 

[PerthBoy86]

The umpires 100% need to sit down and watch the game without commentary in full immediately post game prior to giving their votes.

The Brownlow is a farce.

Rowell had 15 touches, 125 metres gained. 2 votes.

NWM had 34 touches, kicked 4 goals and won the game. 2 votes.

I only watched the last quarter of thet match, and wondered if his last quarter might’ve biased our perception, but 34 possies? Damn, yeah they were blind and or biased.

 

[Worm4]

Why does Daicos need a special acknowledgment, it's like a happy unbirthday for the kid on their siblings birthday

Its sickening the attention he receives

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

That's enoigh for me. Hamish McLoughlin is an embarrassment.

 

[BringFevBack2021]

At this stage I’d prefer Bailey smith to interview Rowell than rompingwins

Get that boy a line and make it happen

 

[Bedi]

Had no idea Dipper was Rowell's dad

 

[1990crow]

Newsflash. Good long distance runners who umpire AFL in their spare time may not be best judges.

 

[PerthBoy86]

Rowell is an absolute beast, probably in the top most impactful/important players in the game (could argue he's no 1), so deserves it.

 

[QuietB]

Bont 25 votes is crazy. Umps absolutely love him.

Bont is a gun. It is an injustice that he has not won a Brownlow.

 

[SizeMatters]

THe sheer amount of salt emanating from this thread from crusty Pies supporters is enjoyable.

Nick wins = umps are amazing. Rowel wins = umps have nfi.

There are 43 field umpires for 2025. 43! Laughable to think Pies supports are adamant that all 43 have no idea about footy or worse yet they 'come together' to screw poor little Nicky over.

Poor Pies what struggle this week has been for you all.

 

[windyhill]

Fully deserved. Very happy for him. Nice bet as well.

 

[VL3OJ]

Everyone: No one more than the umpires have desecrated the Brownlow after not giving NWM 3 votes

Richard Goyder: Hold my champagne, I'm about to munt my speech

 

[brutus76]

Bravo Matty Rowell. Great footballer and a contested clearance beast.

Nick Flakeos maybe try and acquire some hard ball gets and you might do better

 

[RCAB]

Great win M Rowell!

Never one to shirk it… like ummmm

Matt Rowell is the best thrower in the game, even better then Libba now!

 

[Stepover]

NBA MVP is the worst award in sports. By a long way.

NFL MVP is hard to beat.

 

[EddieMurphy]

Hamish is insufferable. He's also bad at his job. He just says awkward stuff to the players that doesn't evoke responses

He's a toned down Bruce, you know he is gushing inside.
