2024 Nick's Brownlow?

^ yeah the older one saw the Dogs finally win it in 2016, but passed away a couple years after. I would have been interested to see a follow up doco after they won in 2016.

Great that she got to see that!! How did you know that?

On the Brownlow stage over our history we’ve not been big

We have I believe been a team driven over individual driven club

If you want to see the biggest blow up of all time
Watch if the so called experts are right and Cripps polls votes in 17 of 22 games
If there right the Brownlow has lost all credibility
The same experts have Nick polling in 13 games

Brownlow credibility?
It hasn't had a shred of credibility since the AFL stepped in and started 'adjusting' hearing outcomes for medal favorites mid season - especially favorites from expansion teams.

Got two big wins (over Power & Eagles) a close’n over Scum and a draw

I reckon Nick will come home fast at the end, but will probably just fall short.

I just want us to win GOTY and MOTY at least.

Not surprised Pendles never won so why would Nick?

Betseeker has Nick winning with 31.25, just 0.25 ahead of Cripps withe Neale third on 28. They make a big call on a value bet - Butters for top 3, he's 100/1 to win it.

Got 25/1 for Butters top 3

So being a numbers nerd I got the champion data stats for individual players game by game for the following clubs. Collingwood Swans Lions Carlton Bulldogs (given they had the most popular or favourites for Brownlow from the half way mark of the season
I looked at each match individually and allocated votes based on the champion data points for that match only
Here’s how the final Brownlow count would have finished on that basis

34 votes and winner Nick D (polled in 14 games)(9x3,2x2 and 3x1votes games)
32 votes Cripps (polled in 13 matches not the 17 the umpires gave him)(8x3,3x2 2x1 point games) only polled votes in 2 losses not the 5 games he polled votes in losing matches and didn’t poll 3 votes in any losses umps had him getting 3 votes in 3 losses
30 votes Bont
25 votes Heeney Warner
24 votes Gulden
23 votes Treloar
22 votes Neale

On a side note Darcy Cameron polled 7 votes

Judd MK 2. I reckon.
