am i the only one who doesn’t think daicos was robbed at all?

Nah I’m being mean

I just can’t figure out why being the 5th Umpire doesn’t get him more votes

No way the Darcy mark was better than Banch’s. You can’t leave these things to a fan vote
Not sure that much of the blame falls on the fan vote when this is one of the T&Cs for the MOTY voting - blame the 'AFL Game Analysis Committee'...:

Genius to hand out scholarships to talented 16 year olds.

That’s without including another teammate of Rowell, Anderson and Daicos at Carey in Ed Richards.
 
Throw in an All Australian captain who has never captained a team at any level and who isn't even in his club's leadership group.

This is the problem with the AFL media landscape they are just cheerleaders for high profile players and teams and very little real analysis is given to actual football performance.

Anyone reckon afl needs to issue umps with a please explain for the NWM kerfuffle?

If a single thing sums up the farce that is the brownlow this would be it.
 
We're still using the voting system we had when there was one umpire, televisions didn't exist and stats analysis was players keeping a rough tally of how many kicks they had and what they come up with being gospel.

The only defence anyone puts up for it is "The Brownlow has always been a bit quirky."

Rowell is a worthy winner, but there is so much wrong with the whole event it's an entire anachronism.
