I don't think it shows he had a damn good season so much as it shows the voters are swayed more by the name than the form.The AFL.com.au brownlow predictor has Walsh currently in equal 11th place (12th if including ineligible Heeney) - which is crazy considering heās clearly below his best. Heās also 17th in the Coaches votes. All this after missing the first four games of the season.
So heās actually had a pretty damn good season compared to the competition and hopefully we make it to the Finals and he gets the bye to help with whatever is ailing him and then watch outā¦

I love Walshy and I think he's a VG Player when at his best, but this season he has been well below his usual form, and there would be a lot of players that are having better years.
