Worst Brownlow Medalist since 2000

[makethat2]

Swan should've won it in 2010
Judd should've won it in 2011

Judds 2011 was I only rated high because of his Brownlow win in 2010. He had a better year for sure but the media jumped the bandwagon but thankfully the umpires got it right 2011. 2010 belonged to ablett not swan. Judd had a goood year 2010 but nothing close to Brownlow worthy

 

[The Blue Baggers]

Judd in 2010 was an absolute joke as was him squeezing into the AA side that year on the bench.

maybe the AA selectors got it wrong but not having him start ??

I still can't believe Priddis won it

Priddis deserves it. He had been underrated. take Priddis out of West Coasts midfield and see their mid fail a ton more. Priddis ranked 1-3 in most the midfield stats in 2014.

 

[ManOfClay]

Woewodin actually doesn't seem that bad next to priddis

 

[Nomad12]

Cooney by far, the only people saying he was a deserving winner are dogs supporters.

Ablett was the best player in that season followed by Richo.

Or people who didn't watch every game he played and look at the stats and then look at Abletts and are like wtf....He was one of if not the dogs best in a lot of their wins so how people didn't think he'd poll well is beyond me. Ablett was great that year but so was Cooney.

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

Was going to go Watson cause of the PED crap.. Then though about Juddy 2010... Still cannot believe Priddis won last year!.. ended up going with Coondog..

 

[WCEbrody]

Priddis will finish with a better career than Cooney or Woewodin but out of the all the names listed here, he had the least impressive season to win a Brownlow.

For a guy who runs like a turtle and can't hit the side of a barn door, he's certainly got the most out of himself.

[Heaps of fun]

Hypothetically, I would be, but I'm not a poll option? Voted Gary Ablett 2010 because I don't like his little face.

How will priddis have had a better career than cooney?

Cooney has been a gun in a consistent finals side compared to priddis not having much to cheer about team wise at all.

Don't point to the wafl as some sort of achievement, otherwise I might as well point to cooney's number one pick accolade

Cooney has played in 1 more final and won 1 more final , while having played 40+ games more than Priddis.

Yeah... not even going to go near that, thats just rubbish.

 

[WCEbrody]

Also i think Priddis is playing better football at the moment. Cooney is a better chance of playing in more finals atm though.

 

[ManOfClay]

Yeah... not even going to go near that, thats just rubbish.

You were the one who brought it up. Why is Priddis' WAFL career relevant? Should I point to Cooney being just about the best player in his SANFL side that made the grand final as a 17 year old.

It's a travesty that Cooney's knee is so degenerative he's compared to a slow, ineffectual midfielder like ****ing Priddis.

Go for it, but Priddis is still ahead.

It's a travesty that Cooney's knee is so degenerative he's compared to a slow, ineffectual midfielder like ******* Priddis.

Unfortunate, but its just the way things have panned out.

 

[AtomicBlonde]

I still can't believe Priddis won it

Totally this...I can't believe there is even a debate - Priddis by a country mile.

 

[AtomicBlonde]

Who voted for Simon Black in 2002 ? - clearly the best player in the comp that year...

 

[Surkin]

Dead heat between Goodes 2003 and Goodes 2006.

 

[Shinboner '07]

Judd in 2010 was a joke. Even more of a disgrace than jobe

 

[Some Idiot]

Judd in 2010 was a pretty big outsider.. There were quite a few people talking about how he had gone backwards that season.

 

[Mister_A]

I reckon Cotchin (2012). Had a very good year, but nowhere near as good as Mitchell and polled his votes in a weaker team with far fewer standout players (Deledio, Grigg and Tuck were the only other Tigers to score 10+ votes).

This sums up my thoughts.
