What only number 3 in tackles ? You will have to lift your game Matt ! Seriously congratulations and well deserved !
 
A very deserving winner after all the years of hard work that he has put in.
I think it was also a good result for footy to have someone up there that was truly humbled by the accolade.
Well done Priddis - a champion winner! (Even if I did do my dough on Kennedy! LOL)
 
A great reward for consistency over the years. No one can deny he gets the best out of himself.

That being said he's not in the Top 25 midfielders in our game but he's definitely one of the most consistent.

Matt Priddis should coach our team. #simmoout

Oh and this is probably a bad thing Priddis winning, it may change Simmos stance that we need a better midfield.
I really don't think the result of an award would influence the coach's strategic planning a whole lot.

It's not like we're going to use our first pick on a KPD because Mackenzie wasn't selected in the AA side
 
I find it interesting that people are upset he won because they think it will result in him not being dropped from the side.

Regardless of whether or not you think it's the right decision, there was next to zero chance that Priddis was ever going to be traded or dropped in the near future, and considering he's almost 30 it's safe to say he'll be in our 22 until he retires.

Him winning the Brownlow doesn't change that, so you might as well just enjoy the fact that we now have one more piece of silverware.

Look at Scott Lycett's Instagram post about him. It cannot possibly be all bad when you see this kind of morale lift in the side.

I think it would be more the opposite, realizing we have no other standouts to influence games and take votes off him. The man just plods (no disrespect) along doing the same thing week in week out. Absolute warrior of the club.

Congrats to Matt. He was definitely be a smokey but in saying that I thought he was a shoe in for top 5. He was consistently good to great all year as shown by 13 games polled in. Well done mate!
 

I find it amusing at how so many people are taking it out on Priddis for winning a medal he himself obviously didn't expect to win, and I take it that you think it's a bad thing that one of our players had his best season to date and he won a very prestigious medal to acknowledge that? I don't think think it'll change his work ethic next year, if anything it will hopefully make him work harder in terms of polishing the rest of his game style (disposal efficiency) to show haters like Dark Shark here that he can match the best footballers out there, if not in skill then in effort and dedication. For all I care our team could win every brownlow for the next 10 years and be any closer to a GF, and as long as the coach/team/club acknowledges this, and works on winning games not medals I'll be happy.


Well done Priddis, although you wern't/arn't the most talented player of the game, definitely one of the most consistent in being the "fairest and best" each week, as shown by the recognition you received last night. Now hopefully you can win us a grand final next year as well!
 
Congrats to you guys and congrats to Matty Priddis. Good to see a good hard working player like Matt win :)
