[Mr Magic]

Goodes is an absolute gun. I have no doubt he is the most valuable player in the AFL.
He can play in every position on the field from ruck to rover from full back to full forward, well.
How many other AFL footballers have ever been able to do that?

Congrats and well deserved.

GETTING IT RIGHT

WHO said the umps don't get it right? The five biggest games of the season according to Champion Data's player rankings were by Jonathan Brown (Round7, 262), Matthew Richardson (Round21, 248), Chris Judd (Round5, 234), Nick Riewoldt (Round8, 203) and Nathan Buckley (Round10, 202). All polled three votes as did Fraser Gehrig's 10-goal game against Richmond in Round17 and Scott West's 45 disposals in Round20.

SAY WHAT?

THE purists wonder how umpires can give votes to two players pitted against each other. The Chris Judd-Adam Goodes battle at Subiaco in Round15 was a ripper and saw them claim top votes. But what about Russell Robertson (three votes) versus Joel Bowden (one vote), also in Round15? Bowden was given a spray from his coach. ``We had a chat to Joel and his defensive aspects of his game and they were nowhere near where we needed them to be,'' said Terry Wallace after the game.

ROBERT KLOMP AWARD

IF CHANNEL 7 was still handing out televisions for best player, then Richmond's Chris Newman would have raised eyebrows for his three votes against Geelong in Round9. He had just 16 disposals and wasn't listed in the best for the Tigers.

Poor Hyde missed out on 3 votes after 20 possies and 4 goals when the umps mixed up #31 with #1 thought he was Newman  .

[letsgetiton!]

goodes is lucky, as would have been west, cousins or anyone else who could have won it!
why do i say this
because jonathon brown scored 13 votes and he only played 10 games for the yr!
i am certain that if brown played all 22 games he would have won by 10 votes votes or more!

feel sorry 4 west, vbut as i said earlier, its a bs umpires award , means nothing, toom many bgreat champions have been robbed or never won

afl mvp award means much more

I have always held the Brownlow in pretty high regard but after hearing that moron Greg Williams carry on in the last couple of days ( I was robbed, I was robbed) it's lost a little bit of it's presitge to me.

Is he for real

Always thought he was a selfish player - an individual who chased the $$$$ but gee he's come up with some ripping stuff in the past couple of days.

Gems like

...."``I don't give a stuff what anybody says, I should have won three Brownlows,'' Williams said.

And now he's getting lawyers involved

FORMER Carlton champion Greg Williams yesterday instructed his lawyers to prepare a submission to the AFL commission over the circumstances surrounding the Brownlow Medal votes in Round 10, 1993.

Williams' lawyers will ask the AFL to review the voting procedures in the game.

Here's some advice Greg "I was Robbed, I want Justice and serial umpire abuser" Williams  - build a bridge and get over it - be grateful for what you've achieved you twit

[letsgetiton!]

williams was robbed, the whole medal is a sham
worthless and meaningless

club best and fairest and afl mvp mean much much more

Imagine if every player wanted a recount for weird umpire votes. Maybe KB could get his of Keith Greig .

Any Bluebagger of the 90s shouldn't be having a whinge. Who knows how long the rorting of salary cap went for before they eventually got caught.

Just on that, how did Foley miss out on a vote in Round 20 against Carlton? 17 clearances and no votes  ???.

I would have liked to see West win  I'm not saying that Goodes' doesnt, but West deserves it.
