Lachie Whitfield

[Coaster2012]

Why isn't this guy getting more props in 2019? 40 touches with 3 goals today. Guy has to be up in the top 3 favorites in the brownlow. As far as number 1 picks go, I think he's the best in the last 15 years. How good will he get? Or is this his peak?

I think if he keeps getting no attention tag wise he is a massive chance for the Brownlow. One of the best users of the ball in the game.

Elite. Out of contract isn’t he?

He plays for GWS, that is the main reason he isn’t talked up more. The guy is a jet.

Absolute lock for AA if he keeps up this form. Brownlow probably won’t happen, but he’s a chance.

Why no Brownlow?

There’s no real hot favourite for the Brownlow at the moment though. Cripps would have to be favourite but in a losing side he isn’t going to poll great every week. GWS are on fire and Whitfield is looking elite.

 

[Purrfect pussy]

Why no Brownlow?

He’s missed 2 games, got injured in another. I think if he keeps up this form teams are more likely to try and shut him down.

Like I said he is a chance, there’s nobody really standing out. In saying that there’s a fair few others that have had good seasons that are also a chance.

 

[The King!]

superstar, but not many watch GWS i guess

 

[XhazzafootyX]

The disrespect from carlton not showing him enough attention and just letting him run freely all night. Lol

 

[NonPhixion]

Mentioned in the unpopular opinions thread that he’s a top 5 player in the comp. potentially the most damaging player in the game with his foot skills off half-back & thru the middle. Incredible work-rate too.

 

[Scotland]

Pfft 40 touches.

Most of them were just long kicks and he kicked 3...oh.

Gun.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Why did people give such a shit about who wins the Brownlow? Most over rated award in the comp, judged by blokes who weren't good enough to play at the highest level, and make wrong decisions in their job week after week.

If I was a player, I would much rather win the MVP. Or even the Coaches Award. Has more respect tied to it.

 

[StonesThrow]

He has it all except a big body. Not that he really needs it but it would make him an incredible player. Good inside and outside game with high quality skills.

I suspect lachie neale is leading the count at present.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Has he been tested recently?

 

[mouncey2franklin]

Has he been tested recently?

Not by Carlton, that's for sure.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

He's in the top 5 players in the league imo

 

[Trucker Tiger]

Don't forget his evasive skills.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Gun player and probably gws' best finals performer in their (admittedly short) history. Runs both ways, supremely skilled and hits the scoreboard.

MVP is shit, pure popularity contest. Coaches Award is quite credible though imo. Coaches Award > Brownlow > MVP.

Brownlow is still easily the most prestigious however.

 

[Vic pokiesmon]

Underrated for his toughness because of his body.Can switch from wing to half back and played high half forward role on the weekend.This makes it harder for opposition coaches to shut him down.Been an absolute gun for a while now

 

[MagicGnome97]

Whitfield has to be one of the top Brownlow contenders surely, along with Cripps, Neale, (Grundy?), etc.

 

[PP34]

Gun. Never been more wrong about a player.
