Somone needs to make a highlight package of his 3 vote performance, including his 4 free kicks against

 

[Marstermind]

Farce award. Voted on by the least credentialed people for the job (and that's not a knock on umpires). Time for a major overhaul.

 

[Sphynx]

If we ever make finals again and LDU plays all 24 games he will poll about 35 votes.

Guy polled 13 from 2 wins and half the season

How does a kid in his first year, averaging more than 27 possessions a game and integral part of a young team’s defence only get 3 votes?

Umps can’t see what colour jumper he’s wearing maybe

 

[DaveyBoy123]

Probably one of the better counts compared to the last few years. Can’t believe that Dunkley, Cameron and co didn’t take more votes off Neale.

Surprised to see Gulden & Anderson so far up there. Would’ve been cool to see one of them come from the clouds and pip the more fancied ones.

Anderson & Viney got heaps of votes because of stepping into the roles of their injured team-mates (Touk & Clarry).

Anyone who watched the Swans a fair bit saw how great Gulden was this season. He was top 5 picked in my all-Aus team. He's actually a bit stiff that Chad Warner (who didn't gave a great season at all) took some votes off him earlier in the season.

 

[Marstermind]

Neale would be the shittest two time brownlow winner surely

Trying to think of an argument against but no. The worst two-time winner ever by a long shot. Old enough to win a third putting him with Skilton, Reynolds, Stewart and Bunton.

so the question is…willl they do something or forget about it…on ya heath

Whatever it takes to get a vote…

Each club appoints an ex-champion, someone whose entire football life is beyond reproach, whose sole job is to watch games and give Brownlow votes. They have no club or media commitments other than this.

Getting umpires to do it is for the bin. Their job is hard enough as it is. They should be hung out for the sort of crap we saw on Friday night. Not this. The entire award is wrong. It's utter clap-trap. The most prestigious award in football is also the most stupid.

Lindsay Thomas judged after 'trial by media', says Petrie

Thomas hung out to dry after coathanger on Hunter, says Petrie

And said ex champion does not watch the side he has a vested interest in.

As far as farcical head scratching brownlow wins go, still behind Judd 2010.

Are you OK Eggs? Do you need medical attention?

 

[Roostorm]

still polled more then any north player

And you still achieved the same result as us at years end…..no grand final

 

[DarwinRoo]

maybe they stuffed up.

It wouldn’t have been the first time. It happens in AFLW as well.

When that team wins 3 games out of 22

 

[Poopybum22]

Beautiful insight Hammo24 cheers pal happy to have you here

 

[Gasometer]

I think I'd prefer to send all 22 of our mob to Weightman, so he doesn't have his usual 1 good game per season!

I think you need to go back to the Dogs pregame thread and GD Thread to find the source of my banter re Bont

Because eyes are on who is standing 3 metres away from them
