Universal Love 2019 Brownlow thread: kicks off 7.30pm, count 8.20pm.

[Grimoz]

Danger too far behind now

 

[RegHickeyStand]

Yuk it up Fyfe. Sandilands will retire and thats the end of your armchair ride.

 

[Boxhead_31]

Lose by 5 goals get 3 votes yeah sure okay umpires

 

[hamG]

Not sure the club gave TK too much media training for these interviews.

 

[catempire]

Relative to tracker:

Danger - even
Fyfe +8

 

[romeohwho]

Fyfe is great but can he have had a better year than danger? Comon paddy.

 

[year of the cat]

I didn't think so... He's on track to break a record here and I never realised he was doing that well.

The Brownlow is such a strange award yet holds the highest prestige.

It’s getting worse every year. Umps just vote for their favourites. Why they poll such huge numbers. Losing its credibility fast which is a shame

 

[Baudolino]

Lmao it was a five goal loss.

That was the game he got injured then unexpectedly came back to boot three. He was good but not BOG. I remember the commentators hyping it up however outside of the goals he wasn't spectacular.

You can have training for it but some guys just struggle with a bit of media coverage.

Dont you mean umpire blowjob tracker

[Strange Cat]

It lost all meaning when Judd (elbowed Pavlich) and Priddis won...hell you can go as far back to when that Shane W won it

It’s a nothing award really just who the umpires like the best

 

[Baudolino]

Ultimately it's the Brisbane and Collingwood 3-voters that have won it for him. Take those away and it's Danger's medal.

 

[year of the cat]

As big a joke as when Judd won his second Brownlow

Or Cooney 2008...

 

[Baudolino]

This doesn't annoy me as much as GAJ finishing his career with "only" two Brownlow Medals when he has deserved at least four, but this is still hella frustrating.

 

[year of the cat]

Forget Danger, get on Tim

 

[James1970]

Duncan has polled well - we really did miss him last Friday.

 

[RegHickeyStand]

Go Timmy, you good thing! Bring the bacon (trade) home for us!

Ill see your GAJ and raise you a Garry Hocking

 

[catempire]

Watch Danger get stiffed out of votes in the last three now.

 

[cynical]

dont be silly, nothing compares to that

 

[year of the cat]

Watch Danger get stiffed out of votes in the last three now.

If Kelly gets them then I’ll be fine with that!

 

[RegHickeyStand]

Hawkins was so clearly BOG, its ridiculous. Its a midfielder's medal and it is so biased.

 

[maryjames]

Love gangster Kelly.

Hope he stays.
