I said in 2019 that it was the most open year in ages (15 was Fyfe, 16 was Danger, 17 was Dusty, 18 was Mitchell and 20 was Neale - all pretty firm favorites). This year is shaping up to be even more open, although obviously one of the favourites could come out with a purple patch and have 5 BOGS over the next 5 weeks, pretty much icing the award. I managed to pick Fyfe in 2019, hopefully I can pick again this year!

Had to sit through all of it as an eagles fan
I had Mills 3, Parker 2 and one of Florent/Dawson 1. Thought Buddy was good but only ended up kicking 3.3

Appreciate the work you're putting in each week but this is a really really high count and id be careful using it for player u/o lines and 15+/20+/25+ etc markets when they come out as you've definitely got the majority of these guys a few votes too high.
Over the last 9 counts going back to 2012,
The person in 6th after rd16 has always been on 14-16 votes (You have 6th place on 20)
The person in 9th after rd16 has always been on 12-14 votes (You have 9th on 18)
The person in 13th after rd16 has always been on 11-12 votes (You have 13th on 15)

I'm fully aware of it but I still got to call it how I see it.
I actually stumbled across a 2009 Brownlow thread the other day!! The rates of ROI for some people was massive!! Was all team votes multis too!! I remember it quietened down a few years after that but makes sense with private forum.
Didn’t someone stitch up that group and sell their info off to corporates? Phantom Bronwlow maybe?
Forum used to pump back in those days!! Is Brownlow King still into it?

I made 5 figures that year, posted regularly with another account that I no longer have because I lost a bet.
EDIT: 2010 for me sorry not 2009, the Chris Judd year. I made a killing from Colin Sylvia tying Melbourne's count with a 3 in a loss to Hawthorn.
Watched Sydney v WC game and I don’t see how you came to 3 votes for Parker. Don’t think he polls at all.
Apologies as you said you didn’t watch the game.

at the game yesterday i thought macrea and libba were their best 2. bont did some good centre bounce work but was a bit meh outside of that
Was Walsh really that good in the Freo game or just the last ditch clinching goal?
Also Taylor Adam’s, deserve any votes in what should have been a heavy loss? Was De Goey better?

I had:
3 Steele
2 Hill
1 Adams
De Goey next. If I was doing partial votes I would give De Goey 0.5. Maybe next year.

If Bont polls there then he can work on his acceptance speech.

Ahh Brownlow King. There's a blast from the past. Not above firing off PMs to posters who dared question his votes. Disappeared after getting one count miles off after being on The Footy Show etc.

Holy crap I’ve just found this thread and it’s a godsend. Legends
Did anyone else get on the Wines train at $81?

That was when he tipped up Sam Mitchell wasn’t it? Odds got absolutely crushed and he did nil iirc!!

Which bookies have decent Brownlow specials leading up to the count, aside from Sportsbet? Better sign up now, as Sh#tbet have banned me.

What a year! Was an 18yo, spent about $100 on bets and came away with $4.5k, was on cloud nine at the time!

I only remember seeing BK appear like a few days before the count. He used to put a thread on the main board from memory too.
That was Brownlow Guru. Different people and very different analysis, BG was very quantitative while BK was more qualitative.
BK stopped posting/contributing here in 2010 (although made a handful of comments in 2013) and took everything to the private forum.
BG continued to post every year a few days before the Brownlow. In fact, says he was on yesterday. BK was much more private (with his full tally/counts, he did go on the footy show and share his thoughts on the winner) BG liked to post yearly on the MB like you said.

Probably still a fair bit of an outside chance, but surely Touk Miller is gaining a bit of traction. Has been the most noticeable player on ground in the last chunk of Gold Coast games. Can’t even find odds for him anywhere...
