Speaking of howlers, Draper's goal of the year where all he did was a failed half sidestep and then a brush off on Ballard (14kg lighter than Draper) and kicked a goal from 30-35m out pretty much straight in front.

Reckon there were 15 to 20 better round nominees easily.

Tbh, even with your description it sounds like a ripper goal

Was a fair enough winner

On CPH2005 using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[Maurice Mitchell]

Surprised Bolton didn't win it tbh.

Having said that, umpires don't vote on it, so you can't blame them for GOTY howler.

Saturday night at the G.
Can’t take credit for this one but I love it.

Goal of the Year? Maybe, certainly better than Draper’s

 

[Strange Cat]

Dane's gone full Trump.

Yeah but he’s 100% right

It was an absolute farce that Judd won it

 

[GWT6]

Yeah but he’s 100% right

And Swan should not have won it the following year - it was an obvious square-up - two deserving winners, but the years switched. Proof of AFL corruption in 2011.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Interesting....

Swan and Judd need to swap Brownlow’s. Two ridiculous results when you consider how good they both were.

Pendlebury had a way better year than Swan in 2011 as well. Results were ****ed

 

[doppleganger]

M.Murphy won Carlton BnF and coaches association award in 2011.

Coaches had Murph 1st, Judd 2nd, Swan 5th and Pendles 6th.

Pies BnF was Pendles 1, Swan 2.

Judd got the players MVP nod.

Swan the brownlow, with Pendles 3rd, Judd = 5th and Murphy = 7th.

All awards slightly different polling methodology, all worthy recipients.

There is no single "opinion" on who is best, all awards have strenghts and weaknesses. Ultimately all come back to peoples opinions at some point.

My opinion that i would of won a shitload on a Pendlebury Brownlow bet should outweigh those though

 

[SAweagle]

Yeh just focus on being a flog and ignore the rest
Jog on mate

need an investigation into why freo cant win flags

 

[boncer34]

I'd have a few in front of Bolton, but as a neutral, if Drapers is what the afl thinks is the pinnicle the 2,000 goals kicked for the year, then it just shows yet another disconnect between them and the fans about the game.

Well this is awkward

 

[What is a cakewalk]

24 hitouts, 5 tackles, 4 clearances in a 1 point loss. But hey, details.

If these stats lead to 3 votes brodie grundy should've won the 18 and 19 brownlows...

 

[Back Pocket King]

What is happening with this Betting Scandal?? They are looking at 2021 also?
Pell only umpired 1 game last year I think?
This is all very strange..

 

[Slartibartfast]

It’s been reported they are now investigating games in 2021 where Pell was involved As an emergency but would have had access to the votes.

The never ending story

 

[Paimon]

I cannot think of a reason the emergency umps need/or otherwise get, access to the votes. Any idea? Is it just a normal topic for the umps to discuss the details among each other (which would seem natural since they’re all supposed to be trusted). Whatever the case, that practice will surely stop now.

They'd share a changeroom / warm up / cool down etc

I wouldnt imagine they are actively included in the voting but are going to hear the discussions goings on when they share the same 'office'

 

[CrazyJoeFevola]

I wouldn’t care but Pell REALLY looks like Howie, and therefore hope he gets the chair

 

[Aussie in exile]

Its gone a bit quiet on this one.
The AFL must be hoping it just disappears.

Possibly troll, possibly.

Or police are still investigating.

Or no one gives a * that an umpire told his mates who was gona get votes on a certain round.

Who knows.

The AFL knew they stuffed up, so they reversed it the next year and gave it to Swan when Judd should have got it. The clearest evidence of AFL corruption that has ever been seen.

I like this bit in the article - 'McLachlan went on to say that they are waiting for sigin off from Sportsbet CEO Barni Evans before being able to announce the appointment of a new umpire'

(not really, but would anyone really be surprised????)
