My tip: Jose Romero will be on the verge of winning, then some votes for Bont/Ed will be found in a shoebox, and it will be a TIE! 😱
Can you please enlighten me as to what went on in 1996?

I'm aware Romero and Grant tied but I'd never heard about any shenanigans pertaining to the results until recently.

I don't suppose Grant was awarded a few extra bonus votes as a method to pry him away from the waiting arms of Port Adelaide?

Never! How could you insinuate such a thing?

Next you'll be suggesting St Kilda promised Wilkie the captaincy to save him from the clutches of the Bulldogs ...

No, it was definitely the 20c that kid donated that swayed him to stay 🤪

One (very strong) rumour was that Jose should have been the sole winner. But it ended up a tie... think your last para is on the money.

Plus Granty was equal second by one vote in the Brownlow. In the last game we lost to Bombers by a few points. Hird and Grant were clearly the 2 best players. Essendon win, Hird got 3 votes, Grant 2. Hird shared the Brownlow with Voss. If we'd won...🤔
 
Grant stayed for the 20c. Everyone knows that. That 20c equals about $2 million in today's money.

Great minds and all that 😁
