Brownlow 2009

[Wonaeamirri33]

Pretty decent, all things considered.

And I picked it correctly too - not that this is massively relevant to the thread or anything, but...

Loved the Cooney kiss. Not an overly interesting speach though. J Brown's would have been epic.

 

[Fairtex09]

pretty average brownlow really... was over by round 14 and Garry's speech was a tad boring.

 

[master bate]

Geez they love Harvey those umpires. He was hardly BOG against us.

Alot of the big names got soft 3 votes against us - Richo, Judd, Harvey

The slim hope of Brown winning it kept it interesting.

At least Swan didn't win.

lol little Gaz almost got as many votes as the entire MFC in 2009.

 

[The Dr]

Surely Davey for us, he's very flashy and his first 3/4 of the year was super impressive.

Ablett to win, and Lenny Hayes a good value outsider.

Pretty happy with that prediction if I do say so myself. Very happy Gaz won it, and very happy with my each-way return on Hayes at $41 earlier in the year.

What's your point?

We're the wooden spooners, surely you expected us to be last in the voting.

 

[Supermercado]

I cant believe you losers watch the brownlow while commenting on big footy.. I'm assuming you guys dont have a lot of friends to come over and have a beer with while watching the brownlow have you? Get a life you losers.

Who let this campaigner back in?

Exactly.

When was the last time a club finished bottom of the ladder and polled a high number of Brownlow votes...

We got more than I thought we would have.

The key position players are significantly absent.

heeeey, what happened to that 'my beers with Chris Connolly' thread, seems to have disappeared.

hmm interesting. I wonder if richskee got any feedback as to why.

 

[Deefence]

yer i know, i was looking for that thread as well, pretty sure riskee was just about right in the end....wasnt he?

It was all a load of booooooooooolchit. Thats why it was taken off.

In any case, true or untrue , you can't have a MFC official potentially compromised by that thread.

...funny...in the thread, I recall there was no mention by Connolls about McLean leaving us. Funny that.

As I said...a load of crap.

Didn't say McLean exactly, but it did make mention of us getting another 1st round draft pick which was correct so it technically was not a load of bullshit.

Nah......no point from me .
