Re: The perfect Brownlow Medal night!

Nice one Tony!! Good to see Joel poll well. Only the big one to go for the perfect year.

Speaking of 'Joel', did anyone else notice that channel 7 gave Joel Selwood's 1 vote against Brisbane to Troy Selwood?

Re: Punt of the year

[Ramsay Bogunovich]

Great work Jimmeh!! All these punting stories are making me ill - all afternoon was meaning to get on Betfair and unload but kept putting it off.

PS Thanks to all the well-wishers from the other clubs as well.

to be honest...
hes not the BEST guy...
went too school with him and he was a touch arrogant,...

[sozza5]

Who needs 22 rounds in a season to win a Brownlow anyway?! I'd take a couple of weeks off at the end as well if i was that good!!!

Awesome work Jimmy B!

 

[MrWolf]

how funny!!!
WAS he just awkward due to the lack of attention? or the lack of beer?

[FTW_]

I bought 40 minutes worth of internet with my phone just so I could see what you guys have said about Jimmy, I cried when I heard he won!!!

 

[bigdroppunt]

im pissed off jimmy didnt thank he appendix it helped him along for 20 of those games, got tickets on himself that bartel.

 

[Power King]

It was surprising that the cornes boys didn't have the influence a lot of people would have thought.

^yeah well in port's case, i think being in the good books with the umpires adds a bit of help. shaun burgoyne, my favourite player, polled the most votes, yet chad had about 5 best on grounds in the first half of the season but got something like 2/3 votes in total for that period, not quite sure on the exact figures.

anyway see ya on saturday cats

gazza was shattered but all that matters is a catters win this weekend.
Well done Jimmy!!!!

Jimmy played in the least amount of games for a winner since Greg Williams in 1994.

As Bruce pointed out, no-one has ever won the Brownlow and Norm Smith medals in the same year. The forecast for Saturday is showers. Any chance of Jimmy making history?

 

[Chrisrocks53]

Goooooooooooooooooo Jimmmmmmmmmy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets not forget Round 13 against the Swans - you remember the "ambulance at halftime, double break in arm, concussion, nerve damage thingi"
http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showt...ww.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=343118 might refresh your memory.
Then there was the big drama whether or not he would, could or should take his place against the Bombers the following week. ( see http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/showthread.php?t=345324 )
He played, but that was his worst game for the year - the gutsy little prick should have stayed in bed.
Anyhow, the point is that, in effect, he missed those two games as far as scoring Brownlow votes go.
Throw in the two week's appendicitis and he really only had 18 games where he could attain votes.
How many would he have polled if he had a full season?
Anything up to 41 votes mathematically.





p.s. The use of the term 'prick' was as an affectation.

Goooooooooooooooooo Jimmmmmmmmmy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stevey J did ok too!

 

[Blinger]

Congrats to J.Bartel for the Brownlow & also to the Cats for making the big one, hope you guys can also celebrate on Saturday night.

lol

 

[reidy75]

Think Gazza might almost welcome the lack of attention over the next couple of days.

As an individual, he wouldn't be able to help but feel a little disappointed, but appeared genuinely excited for Jimmy.

Bit sad that everyone gives him a panning for not doing his best to clown around every time the camera went on him - guess that makes him bitter.

 

[TheTruth]

Well done to Jimmy.
This guy is an out and out GUN.
And good luck in the GF guys, hoping you get over the line which you should if you turn up to play. Best team in the league by a fair way.

Looking forward to it.

By the way, do you happen to know those guys that starred against us in round 21 - Cornes, Cornes, Burgoyne and Burgoyne ?
Tell em we've got four more players that couldn't make it that day but would like to have a crack at them.
Their names are Ling, Rooke and Sellwood.




Oh, and the Brownlow Medallist will be at the party this time.
