Brownlow 2024 Brownlow Medal Count - Congrats Patrick Cripps!

[FS25]

45! Fak! Phenomenal

Haha, I just saw the results. The joke's on all of you for getting so wound up over a joke of an award. You've had the evidence of it being a flawed award yet people complain about the same old things every year. As I said, it's a simpletons award. No true footy analyst gives it any credibility.

 

[Corn Cobbers]

Daics now averages more votes per game than anyone in history

 

[hutchy31]

Cripps a worthy winner, should be the headline.

But it won't because of the ludicrous count. It's not just him either, guys like Butters and Green in the high 20s when they had good years but nothing spectacular. Disposals and being in/under seem to be the only real factors now.

Maybe because this has jumped the shark so spectacularly there will be some sort of long overdue recalibration. Ideally a new voting method, but if not then something that at least brings more rigour to the process.

45 votes is genuinely ridiculous.

Would suggest it is far and away the greatest season of all time.

Even 38 votes for 2nd is crazy (36 was the highest ever prior to tonight)

Wasn't really that long ago when 18-21 votes would win you the medal.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Why are votes so high for everyone, something is seriously wrong. Something has changed. It's all smoke and mirrors so we'll never know.

When footy media and socials talk of nothing but how good Cripps, Daicos or some other superstar is, it's hard not to be an umpire that isn't influenced by what they hear when casting votes.

 

[Rod Stroker]

LOL LDU! 18 votes in 7 games.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

You confident GC make top 4? Will have more to take votes off when Rioli comes in. Would need a significant team improvement

The guy who has 10 career votes?

 

[Dewyyyyy]

People forget that there is an extra round this year. 45 votes is incredible, Cripps a dual Brownlow medalist. Such an unbelievable player.

29 disposals per game
16 contested possessions
8 clearances
0.7 goals (17 goals)
0.5 goal assists
7 score involvements
5 tackles

Superb season.

 

[Glassjaw]

Yes he did. Got 4 coaches votes. At least get your info right.

Talking about Daicos mate, not Cripps.

 

[pieman123]

I know SuperCoach points are not the be all and end all but against Sydney Daicos was rated as the 28th best player on the field, but he got 2 Brownlow votes

Yes we get it you dont like Daicos, meanwhile Cripps gets votes for winning the toss.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

45 votes do Carlton have any other players haha

 

[hawkman]

In Carlton's 13 wins he polled 34 votes

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

From worst finals team of all time to premiership would be a remarkable story

Pretty sure there have been teams make finals with less wins, lower percentage and poorer elimination final performance.

Diesel doesn’t even know what year it is

 

[The King!]

Patty can clearly just do a speech hamish

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Players like Lockett, Stynes, Peter Moore would have never won Brownlows under todays umpires and voting.

 

[Dewyyyyy]

One extra round, 9 votes more than the voting record.

Still an extra round which is apart of it.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

I can’t believe Cripps just said a d*** joke on national television and doubled down on it. Classy.

 

[Roonescape]

Wow that was disgusting.

 

[YeoShuey]

Question: Who will end up finishing with more Brownlow’s by the end of their career? Neale or Cripps?

 

[FreddyTwoShoes]

Hamish reaching new heights of cringe.
I can’t watch anymore.

 

[Gratees]

Record will be broken in 2 years when the afl adds another 5 extra rounds

 

[Banyo Bloods]

There was no need to
double down on commiserating Daicos. Let Cripps have his moment to himself. Woeful stuff.

 

[manureid]

Umpires aren't even trying anymore.
