Roast The Brownlow has no credibility left

[And_ROOS]

Stats

As in give them to the umpires? Because they aren't basing their votes on stats. Neale V GWS had 20 and 0.0 and got 3 votes ahead of Cameron who kicked 7 goals but got 2 votes, or Kelly for GWS (41 disposals) and Coniglio (38 disposals) who got 0 votes.
And JHF had 13 disposals against Geelong, and got the 3 votes.

Umpires need to have how they vote changed.

 

[Magpie Since 1986]

Coaches votes for that game.

10 Mason Cox (COLL)
8 Jordan De Goey (COLL)
6 Nick Daicos (COLL)
4 Tom Mitchell (COLL)
2 Darcy Moore (COLL)

Hardly a controversial decision when it was a smashing and an even team effort.

Ok but the umpires said Taylor Adams was second best , I don't see him mentioned here ?

 

[VogonProsthetnic]

English getting votes for some ordinary performances.

English getting votes for some ordinary performances.

Its strange because statistically he was very good all season, but gets votes in some games he should and others he shouldn't.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Woewodin won it in 2000. Says it all about this award.

I mean Umps can't see Cameron playing the game out of bounds, but we trust them to pick the best playe...I mean midfielder in the AFL?

They didn't see Cameron when he tore it up in Rd 2 against Carlton...

 

[Bunnings]

Suns V Dogs,

Bont 16 kicks, 11 marks, 11 tackles, 707 MG, 14CP. Should have had a vote over Bailey Dale

Not a single vote. I think we can accept the suggestion that the Brownlow is just a means of umpires voting for their favourites

Ya lost the game mate

 

[Beauski]

3 votes in a game with 20 disposals, scored 0 goals 0 behind, 152m gained, he was the 21st ranked player on the ground

Neale has won the brownlow medal off this game, investigation has to happen.

[Greasyrhys]

Very strange voting in many games, needs to be overhauled

[Sherrinator]

What a joke of an award this year. Nick Daicos was BOG vs GWS and polled 0 votes despite having 35+ disposals.

The award is losing relevance each year.

Yeah what about all the games he polled 3 just by scabbing cheapies out the back? Maybe hand some of those votes over

 

[Boppo]

he’s pretty surprised, all he can do is go out and play footy.

Yes like this was the tipping point.

didn't even have HIS best season this year...and polled in some games he really shouldn't of.

When was the last time a Brownlow Medalist didn't make the AA team? Getting more and more about umps and their faves, rather than actual performances.

Apparently Gulden only deserved 1 vote for a 42 disposal, 2 goal game. F*cking nuts.

Umpires ‘wounded’ by Brownlow betting scandal as AFL boss addresses calls to change vote process

Ump dumped after Brownlow betting scandal as Gill addresses calls for historic change

www.foxsports.com.au

AFL boss Gillon McLachlan has confirmed the umpire at the centre of the Brownlow betting scandal has been dumped by the league.

But McLachlan has ruled out making any changes to the medal voting process, insisting the serious saga was a result of “human failure”, rather than a worrying issue within the AFL or umpiring department.

This might have something to do with it.

 

[J Albert]

Bont robbed so hard as well. Neale getting 3 votes against GWS is insane.

 

[Danw0w]

And JHF had 13 disposals against Geelong, and got the 3 votes.

Umpires need to have how they vote changed.

Why?

It's in the opinion of the umpires. Otherwise just give it to the highest supercoach score..

 

[kuwahshi]

Petracca not polling in the last round was most surprising. Was at that game and he took the shine off Errol's (42 touches) 1 vote. Deserved the 3.

Priddis surely

 

[BallaratBulldog]

It lost it when Chris Grant was robbed by Ian Collins in 1997 and when Woewodin won in 2000.

And now Bont robbed!

Lachie Neale won because Nick got injured

Bradbury Brownlow if I've ever seen one.

 

[Giant Pete]

It’s a terribly flawed process.
Bit embarrassing for Neale I reckon.
