Brownlow Ollie Wines 2021 Brownlow Medallist! - Yep Confirmed!

[robbo1981]

While it will be a great feather in Ollie's cap I think it is losing its shine after all the cheating incompetent umpires have all the say.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

I don't think I really give a sh*t if he wins or loses tbh.

I'm weirdly the opposite.

So starved of success at Port for 17 years, I reckon if he wins I'll be so happy for him it'll make the whole off-season bearable. We would look back on 2021 as the year Ollie won the Brownlow.

I am with you. Geez, I am after anything positive!

Yep!

The lack of a Brownlow or a Coleman in our 24 seasons is frustrating and it'd be nice to have that rectified.

I'm trying not to get hopeful because we don't tend to poll well as a club but this is one of our best chances.

Good luck to him if he does but it doesn't make anything bearable.

 

[Schulzenfest]

I'd be happy for Ollie personally, in the same way I'd be happy for him personally if he got married or had a kid. It wouldn't make anything about the team's performance more bearable though.

I think the fact that nobody at Port has won a Brownlow yet would make it a significant moment.

For the record, the only clubs that haven't had a Brownlow medalist since we entered the AFL are Essendon (Hird won the year before we entered, Watson won on the night but later lost it), North and GWS (who have only been around 10 years).

 

[Marmozet]

Ollie winning the Brownlow could be the thing that saves the whole club from falling out and imploding over summer.

Everything you need to know about this year's Brownlow Medal

The showpiece award ceremony of the 2021 AFL season is almost upon us, with the Brownlow Medal presentation taking place in Perth on Sunday. Here's everything you need to know.

Port and North are the only clubs to not have had a Brownlow or a Coleman since 1997.

It's time

Everyone knows its gonna be a fairytale Oliver or Petracca win. Dedicated to Jim Stynes or Robbie Flower or someone... media will go gaga. Ollie barely get a mention.


(FWIW I've got Wines winning on 32 votes. Slight winner on Oliver and Steele. Petracca and Miller next up. Bontempelli on 23. Parish about that as well. Boak top 15 on 19 votes)

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

IT COULD be one of the most open Brownlow Medal races in recent memory.


While AFL.com.au's Brownlow Predictor has Clayton Oliver and Marcus Bontempelli battling it out at the top, Ollie Wines remains a firm favourite while a series of other contenders could also emerge across the course of the night.

* I hope he wins. After how many here wanted him gone and traded two years ago after his skiing incident and poor form it would be great. Would be the greatest turnaround.

I think he'll finish 3rd.

 

[1954]

I will be very happy to be wrong but I have a feeling both the Bont and Oliver will get more votes than Ollie.

 

[PJ Power]

I’ve been ambivalent to this, but ultimately want to see a Port player claim a Brownlow after 25 years without a winner. The 2004 and 2014 disappointments (Judd over Tredrea, Priddis over Gray) are a reminder of how fickle Brownlow favouritism is for Port players.

Extraordinary that so many sources have Ollie favourite but the AFL website doesn’t have him anywhere near the top 5, and predicts Boak will be our leading vote-getter.

 

[TeeKray]

Ollie won't start polling properly or even at all until round 5 or 6 but once he starts he won't stop.

I think he'll finish 2nd to Bont. It'll be a record high vote count for a Port player but we just don't get enough hype to win a Brownlow unfortunately.

 

[Grave Danger]

"3 votes, Melbourne, C........................"

 

[Papa G]

I doubt Wines will win.

Just out of interest, please note how often oppo players get votes in our wins compared to how many votes we get in our losses.

 

[Janey]

Thought I might actually watch the B'low for once, but we don’t get free to air and Fox don’t seem to be showing it this year. I know it can be a bit like watching rocks erode, but at least this year I have an interest in it.

I will ride every "FARKEN!" from the comfort of this very thread.

Yeah looks like I'll be doing that too. I just thought it might make me feel a bit better, albeit temporarily, watching some positive stuff about our year.

 

[tribey]

Betcha he gets done in by some umpire giving 3 votes to Trent McKenzie and 1 vote to Ollie in a game where Ollie amassed 200 possessions.

“Round 23, Western Bulldogs versus Port Adelaide,

1 vote: J. Macrae, Western Bulldogs,
2 votes: T. Boak, Port Adelaide,
3 votes: O…

*excited murmuring*

…Spencer, The Help.

I declare the winner of the 2021 Brownlow Medal to be Clayton Oliver, of the Melbourne Football Club!”

Bont in $151 to poll the most votes in the final 8 rounds, that’s a fair chunk of the season.. if he wins it will be a big surprise…

unless you believe the vic media…
