brownlow thoughts

I know GC didnt play finals (or even win games ) but I'm still backing son of Yaaaaaablett

Cotchin blowing like a gale 4.50 out to 8. Must be looking fat in the mounting yard or something...

you reckon umps have betfair accounts?

Swans Kennedy

re Ablett and co.
%82 of votes go to the winning team.
makes it hard for the fav's.  imo

Quite possibly mate. Avoid a late drifter on here like the plague.

hairy question.
how many degrees of separation from an umpire do you have to be to be able to bet on footy?

the umpire's niece? nephew? nephew's friend?

serious question.

JK getting smashed !!! he'll be single figures come 6.15pm lol.

Struggling to find a bet I like. Last year was easy, laid the Judd/Goodes quinella, can't remember the exact price but it was very small around 2.4ish from memory. The second I saw it I clicked the pink, nothing jumping out as such this year.

You have to think like a mag got.

I like to back the favorite from last year that didnt win. I think that would be Ablett. The umps would have it their thoughts that we didnt give him votes last year when we should have so we will give him votes this year when he doesnt deserve it. Works a bit like their silly even up free kicks.

Worked for Dane Swan last year.
But my money is on Mike Pyke

Watson fave now
Mitchell into 6s
Kennedy into 8s

Can see myself being sucked in here

Some of the girls should tell those fashion police to fk off. they are there to have good night & support partners not be judged by those nancys

Alex Perry is a ****.  He should put some socks on.. W@nker

Imo

I'd press the red button for Big Teds fashion expertise

Lots of boobage wins


IMO

i'm laying selwood at wce for top club votes.
go everyone else at wce!

kennedy
ablett
cotchin

nice trifecta.

i tried the thompson, kennedy, mitchell @ 1000 :)

I've back Cameron most votes for GWS at 60s.

Nice bet Ted. Those low scoring teams can throw up a real outsider.

Should be an interesting count, and once again we curse the fact we can't bet in running over the net.

Can anyone remember a Brownlow in history where the top 3 in betting are all from teams outside the 8?

Makes for a very unique night

That's quite a stylish outfit there. Very elegant.

I dont like all these blokes with their hands in the pockets.

How would you like them to position their hands?

good $$ for mitchell and thomson

gary out the gate

I dont get all this....it was decided weeks ago...and there's moves here there and everywhere.....are people following so call leads?....how can Cotchin hit $8 earlier....now back to $5.6???.....why has Gary got the blows???.....its a joke!

Not in their pockets.

i told you guys about the bookie's gary ablett kansas city shuffle a month ago and not to fall for it.
seems they chucked in a little cotchin shuffle as well.
well done those who didnt fall for it.

Agree Reggie, very strange just watching the prices move all over the place. No idea myself so staying away mainly, tiny involvement for interest on Beams and a stupid combo of Beams top Pie, Black top Lion and Tuck top Tiger.

just fill your pockets and LAY LAY LAY Cotchin winner, top 3 and top 5......enjoy!

Congrats Gary on another Charlie!

decent drift on for little gaz, didn't want to say he's being laid ... in case joel's trying to concentrate

how's this punters..missus doesn't wanna watch the brownlow,instead she is watching ghost whisperer
Gotta listen online

GAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

fck me.  2 thrashings and 6 votes gary. great sign 4 him

Ablett 2 best on,s. ...**** IMO

Big Ted.....i just spat my beer out mate....that is classic stuff!

can't say r!gged

Josh Kennedy was winning twice after the first round

gotta love the 7.4's pre off for gazza :)

This is over,may as well watch ghost whisperer

not over yet ted the little master was expected ot get plenty from the first three rounds.

this inplay ban is starting to give me the ****.

Seriously shouldn't bet on something the white maggots vote in

in play sucks a big one

Anyone got a live count site? AFL brownlow tracker not doing much...

Yeah it's busted..no sign of cotchin

How will demeetreeoh go if **** has to be read out

That was ****

Ffs karmicheal

Still can't find a count tracker. Pathetic.

watson stops as though shot in the last 5-6 games have layed him thompson and mitchell and backed gazza kennedy, sewell and sloane 7 plus bucks gazza was huge

Now it's over..reckon he'll hang on from here

No tracker is a disgrace afl.... ****s

also had something small on beams

ablett should swamp him late

Only Thompson and gaz could beat him from here..might pol in one more game..

yep looks over, the little master had a v. high possession period in the last 5 rounds. That was a remarkable drift on gazza just before vote off. gl to those who stepped in.

Ablett close enough now to reel him in think.

Come on Gaz.....do the right thing umps!

If ablett can pole in 100 pt loss's so can jobe

Imo

I tipped this

just got some more out of watson at evens come on gazza

Here comes Gazza!!!

win tonight and baldy could become the first player to win four opf them ..... imo.

Watson layers distressed after that round imo

wow, i wtched the old man for years and reckon one of the best never to win a brownlow and now the son gets it. incredible.

Bugger, gonna fall a couple short

Well done Jobe, we salute you. Couldn't go to a nicer bloke.

And sheedy wanted to trade Jobe..senile ole ****


Imo

typical umpires, watson isn't fit to tie abletts shoes. Looks hard from here now. The only thing I did wrong was not lay cotchin I should have layed him as well as knew delrdio and co would pinch plenty of votes off him. Well done if you backed watson you've committed highway robbery  because no way did he have a better season than ablett but well done anyway.

Well done Jobe, won't lose from here. Surely not the best player of the 2012 season though.

yep, he looked hopeless when in his first year. He has really worked hard on most aspects of his game.... kicking was atrocious, fitness wasn't up to par, reactions were pedestrian etc. etc....... very very well done jobe !!!

gees your a bad loser Lets
watson and ablett both champions

My best mate's an Essendon supporter so seen quite a bit of Jobe this year. I don't think you guys are giving him due credit.
Not as good as Gazza, but a deserving winner nonetheless.

Hard to aftertime and still get it wrong one would think?

Don't think anyone should have an issue with Jobe winning it

Not at all nick I just hate to see the wrong player win, Ablett wins the vote from his peers by a street yet the unmpiure can't see he's had a vastly superior season to Watson a very good player but one who isn't in the same postcode as far as ability when compared to Ablett.

Jobe benefits from playing in a team with no stand out players. Had a great year, but not the best player.

he is the this year

Thank you rhino that' was the point I was making.

If you have the choice of either getting watson or ablett into your team you pick Ablett every time and twice on sundays

Swan woulda won it again if not for a night on the p1ss

he IS i the same postcode as ablett, take your red ink glasses off lets. He's a fkn gun./

6th ablett finished

Anyone who backed Gazza for the top 5 must be filthy when he was swamped in the last round by everyone. I had him over 26.5 votes, looked a winner all night. Having said that I also had Mitchell over 25.5, looked a loser all night. Swings and roundabouts. Jobe a worthy winner.

Please don't make any more points, for the love of God.

Jobe won, he deserved to win. Our game isnt always about the absolute best and many great players have not one because they were not in winning teams.
Jobe is the first player in a while to win from a team that didnt make the finals. I think that speaks volumes for how good he is.

Nuff said!

Not WON that should have read.

Knew what you were talking about snake, that's two though that little gazza has been robbed of, for fark sake he hasn't even finished second.

Umpires probably didn't even know who dangerfield was in the first half of the season, shouldn't have come as a surprise though the brownlow result given the standard of umpiring this season.
There were a couple of players who polled well to keep an eye on for the future if they have big years next year as they will definitely have more "umpire" recognition.

How you going now AD with the Hawks supposedly going to have been unbackable favourites, not only are they going to be backable, they're definitely vulnerable.

If they gave it to the best player in the game Gazza would win it every year.
My last post in this thread. He was in a side that won 3 games and were belted from pillar to post and he still polled 3 votes in many of those games.
I don't really know what you want them to do. I think they were more than fair to him.
I knew the risks when I backed him. In hindsight it was a stupid bet. The odds were heavily stacked against him, and it has always been that way for a good reason.
Paul Kelly won a Brownlow in a side that finished last (I think?) But that was before the medal was truly a midfielder's medal as it is today.
Pies beat GC by 100 points, Swan or Pendles or Beams gets 35 touches and you want Gazza to get the 3? Just isn't going to happen much of the time and it happened more often that it would with any other player.

Anyway, I am delighted Jobe won. Very likable and classy young man. A credit to his club and his name.

Not saying he's not Snake just that yet again the Brownlow doesn't reflect the player who had the best season as I also said several weeks ago now and given it is the elite award just think that's wrong, betting tonight was only a bit of fun as would have loved to see ablett win as unbelievably he's elevated himself to another level again at the suns.

Suns might improve a bit next season if ablett kicking it lace out to tippett.

Didnt watch the Count.
If Ablet Got 3 votes vs Pies its a Disgrace.
He was playing for Pies that day.

Anyway i got Mine.
$500 on Watson Layed 2 points under.
Then Layed again at Evens.
Easy $480 Jumps in.

Didnt watch it havent seen how Votes went.

had a grand on cotchin to be in the top 5 and he made it in the last round with 3 votes Not one vote for cotchin in the first 6 rounds..imagine, even just one vote for each of those rounds and he would have won.

Cotchin layers VERY quiet
Superstar in the making,dont risk him in the future lads...will win one

If Fyth is Sound Next Year Moral.

I cant Believe it Ablet got 3 Against Pies.

Swans didn't finish last when Paul Kelly won, they finished 12th, they won 8 games.

Someone on here can't admit they have been wrong about pretty much everything all year. Humility wouldn't go astray

Sorry

i love everything.
except scott selwood. lol.

so that brings to a conclusion a most interesting brownlow count.
