Prediction Collingwood Brownlow Predictions & Discussion

[Laurie Holden]

Who do we think will top our list tonight?

Can we have anyone finish in the top 5 or is that a pipe dream?

Come the halfway point of the session who will be leading from the Pies and will we be amongst it?

Will we get any votes in the second half of the season?

*Apologies if there is already a thread for this. Did not see one.

 

[Snag Breac]

If anyone, surely it would be Swan. I'm hoping Varcoe gets a few votes to acknowledge his great year.

I've a funny feeling Fyfe won't win. The Brownlow can be unpredictable. Maybe it's Sam Mitchell's turn?

 

[Mudeo]

Should be Pendles that tops it. He was still very consistent through the whole year

 

[left at home]

swan will lead us but about 10-20 position. with the fade out in the last part of the season cannot expect much better than that

The most interest I will hold this year is who gets the three votes in our round 14 game against Hawthorn. AFL predictor has Cyril getting them. He did win the game (although three goals came from frees with the first two frees very line ball).

Pendlebury from memory had 37 disposals, no clangers, 10 tackles, 10 clearances, 5 marks and 5 score assists.
Rioli had 10 disposals, 5 goals.

I might be biased. No, I most definitely am biased. But that to me is pretty clear who was best on ground in that game. Cyril was best in the forward lines.

I've loaded up on Fyfe, think his first half of the season will have him streets ahead. No Pies in top 10 unfortunately.

 

[Snag Breac]

I predict some of the dresses will be ridiculous.

Not taking issie with this particular example, but as a broader principle in this sort of situation wouldn't mind seeing the votes go to the forward in more instances. Brownlow is such a midfielders medal these daya, it's ridiculous.

If Goldstein doesn't give it a shake this year, then it's hard to see when a ruckman will ever win it again.

If someone like Chad Wingard doesn't threaten with the kind of year he had, seems wrong.

Gun midfielders are obviously important, but that players like Franklin in his gun years don't go close is a bit wrong.

Nevermind that someone like Nathan Brown or even Alex Rance will be lucky to poll votes at all.

Goldstein is an interesting one. He should give it a fair nudge, but going on history it is highly unlikely. He really has had an incredible year though. It would be fantastic for him to win it.

My care factor for the Brownlow is zero.

 

[DaicosianMarvels]

Fyfe will win it with out a doubt.

I am praying Sam Mitchell doesn't finish top 3.

Still paying 1.95 as of yesterday. Money for jam perhaps? That's what I'm hoping.

 

[ppoiter]

Reckon Mitchell will win. It'll be interesting to see how Priddis goes, given that hes had a similar year in a better-performing team. Swan will be out top vote-getter, hopefully followed by Varcoe

Opened this thread to say exactly this.

One of the best games I've ever seen Pendles play.

Was going to post exactly this too! Certain three. I think Pendles might be good for high teens and give us a reason to keep watching, not sure who wins, I would say Hannebery. Just quietly, Fyfe's game with a broken leg deserves some kind of medal on its own. As does Paddy's final game for the crows.

Wonder if Taylor Adams will score votes or do umpires really dislike him? Varcoe I doubt will get many, he did great things at key moments which we as supporters love and remember but generally not rewarded in Brownlow votes.

 

[Sunbot]

I predict the Treloar will poll as the top Pie

 

[Ketchup]

Priddis is the man

Ruckmen not polling well is a recent phenomenon. If you go back to the days where ruckmen played a kick behind the play and took a lot of marks, it was the most over-represented position in terms of Brownlow winners.

 

[Kirby]

Anyone want to have a punt at giving their prediction for the most for each team?

I'm in a competition tonight and need all the help I can get!!

 

[ThisIsJake]

Pendlebury's year was well and truly better than Swans but Swan is very likely to lead our Brownlow tally.

Pendles has never been able to poll, Brownlow more about numbers than efficiency.

 

[TradeDraft]

My care factor for the Brownlow is zero.

Same Here and Brownlow is Overrated anyway.

Scumps do the Votes

 

[TradeDraft]

Adams might be our Highest Vote Getter

Can't have a game without umpires

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Pendlebury likely our biggest voter, say mid teens to 18, depending on him pinching a 1 vote here and there.
Should get the 3 v Hawthorn but as we didnt win it will be 2 votes.
Then Brice can delicious up on Cyril.

Suspect swan is next best on about 10 votes.

Its all Fyfe, Priddis, Goldstein, Danger and who the hell knows
