^ THIS
The effing umpires cant get the game rules right so why would you trust them with votes.
Don't give it to the media - use the Coaches' votes.
They see the game far better than any of us
The Brownlow is the Brownlow, whether you agree with them or not is irrelevant, they see and hear what we don't.
As mentioned previously that perhaps the APLPA MVP or coaches award should hold more creedence, well let it, have a dinner for them nights, cover them in glory and put it in the history books.
Obviously the Brownlow doesn't go how everyone thinks it would/should, that is the beauty of it, I can't thin kof a mre deserves winner than Matty Rowell,
he lives and breathes the game , he'd be the one handing the ball back to the ump at almost every ball up from the bottom of the pack, he is the complete package as a player, he does it all.
Also eats it
my yes be yes, my no be no

Would West Coast 12 votes be the lowest team total ever
Cripps started on 12 before the count even started

Leave it with the umpires, it's fun seeing how bad they can cock things up.

Always felt for those loaded private school blokes with chauffeurs.

Well there's only one weekend left of 2025, it was always going to come to an end.
I reckon September 2026 will be pretty bloody quiet for you and me again.

Mason Cox has gone up in my estimations.
"Dayne Zorko is a kind, great man, a great role model, a person I think I'd be great friends with are all things I would not say about Dayne Zorko."
'Merica!

We've got Maynard - they've got Zorko
I dont have a problem with Zorko
They both play it tough & opposition supporters dont like either
