Brownlow 2025 Brownlow Count

[dogwatch]

Might as well start a separate thread for this.

When does the actual count start? I'm not the slightest bit interested in all the pre-count hype and red carpet razzamatazz. But good luck to them all for their hour in the spotlight.

Any chance of a Bulldog featuring in the finish? As usual it'll only be midfielders so I guess it's between Ed and Bont as to who'll poll most votes for us. I'd have picked Ed but he doesn't seem to be in the rankings.

AFL Ratings website has these odds:

Daicos 2.50
B Smith 5
Dawson 7
Anderson 7
Rowell 13
NWM 51
Serong 51
[PLAYERCARD]Tom Green[/PLAYERCARD] 51
McCluggage 81
Bontempelli 101

(Sportsbet is similar and has Ed at 151)

I would hope Diacos doesn’t win either

 

[TheScriptorWL]

Brownlow stock is in the absolute mud. Only tuning in myself to see if the Bont can beat GAJ's, most three vote game record.

Other than that, the whole event can get in the bin.

Hope N. Anderson wins.

I just want the camera to periodically pan to the Essendon table.

How many BoGs does Bont need to pass GAj?

How many BoGs does Bont need to pass GAj?

Haven't checked. But off the top of my head, I believe it's eight.

Just checked it myself. I reckon it gets surpassed tonight, but not by Bont. Danger a big danger. Neale a near cert. Asterisk means still playing in 2025:

55 - G Ablett Jr
54 - Dangerfield*
52 - Neale*
46 - Judd
46 - Bontempelli*
45 - Dempsey
45 - Sam Mitchell
45 - R Harvey
42 - D Martin
42 - Fyfe*

Only when you go lower than 42 do you find any players without at least one Brownlow to their name, other than Bont. Boomer Harvey with 41 then Pendles with 38.

 

[Tony Barber]

Come on, this is hilarious.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

I only watch for the boobs.

Big fan of Stewy Dew then?

That seems a bit odd.

But Ok.

You'd think Neale is the only real danger there. Umpires would have gravitated towards giving Smith the three votes.

Still a crazy record to break, with nothing to show for it.

You won't have to be watching closely.

Sam Mitchell hopes they all lose.

Some much easier and less painful ways you could get that fix

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I can't really see how Daicos doesn't win. I don't think he was nearly as good as he was in 2023 but half of it is just not having teammates steal votes off you and most of the other contenders (bar Dawson) have teammates who will poll heavily as well

 

[bobs head soup]

By boobs, you could mean breasts or blustering idiots.

Either way, you should be satisfied.

 

[stevieg1969]

Well, here’s your blustering idiot.

Logic is sound, but I can't help thinking tonight's result is preordained.
In fact, I'd bet my old headband on it.

 

[AZZA_23]

I’m on Dawson Adelaide won 18 games and the only other player to take votes off him is Rankine- Dawson will have to poll atleast 8-9 BoG’s and two to four 2 votes to win

 

[go_sports_team]

Well, here’s your blustering idiot.

The guy annoys the shit out of me....

But this is pretty funny

 

[MJG14]

Dogs did the glasses look first!

 

[bobs head soup]

Not too fussed on this year's winner, cos it won't be one of ours.

Hopefully, Bont gets a few 3 votes (he should).

As it stands, the 5 most 3 vote games are:

55 - Ablett Jnr
54 - Dangerfield
52 - Neale
46 - Judd, Bontempelli

A few 3s tonight will move Him closer to ultimately becoming the all time #1.

How is it funny?

What am I missing??

Am I just old???

 

[fargy]

It went a bit under the radar as the last couple of rounds went under camera, but Bont voted in the last 8 rounds in the coaches awards. Reckon he’ll be in the fifties of 3 vote games by the end of the night.
