How often did the votes for the Brisbane & Collingwood games get held back to be the last votes read out in nearly every round?  Suspense manufactured AFL style ...    :thumbsdown

Not even in the all Australian side.

Which is also a joke of an award.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Hahaha those cheats should never vote on a game again. stuffin losers the lot of em.

Jason Horne-Francis got three votes against Geelong from 13 disposals, one tackle and no goals. Four of those touches were ineffective, two were clangers and he was not among the nine players who polled coaches’ votes.

Currently a member of the Roupies, and employed by the great man Roup.

Laughable isn't it. And Taylor Adams R3 lol. 20 touches, 3 contested, no goals, about 1-2 tackles.

It's a joke.

Brownlow votes should include coach and maybe captain input.

What did you think of the votes vs North?

Thomas getting the nod over dusty didn't seem right to me either.

It didn't impact on the result so I'm not fazed

I get more frustrated by the fact it is just a midfielders award now.

No key position players get a look in that's what irks me

He might've had a great year bur he was nowhere near the best or most damaging player in the comp. ....as someone pointed out last night ,the supposedly "not damaging enough" Taranto hit the scoreboard more this year than both of Neale's Brownlow years combined and certainly wasn't the best player in the comp this year either....joke of an award and  has been for years....even when Dusty won it in 2017 he was nearly knocked off by Dangerfield who couldn't hit the side of a barn all year.... :shh
