Except your team has 2 Coleman medallists and about 7 x AA’s in it.
If Cripps was as dominant a player as 45 votes suggests, Carlton don’t finish 8th and get flogged in an EF.
He was a worthy winner, but 45 votes is a joke… everyone knows that.

The first Brownlow medal had 16 games, now we have 23 games a season, and they're talking about increasing it. Not too mention, the Brownlow medal doesn't take into account THE MOST IMPORTANT GAMES OF THE SEASON.
But if it was Dusty polling 45 votes, you'd have a tent pole in your jodphurs huh?Except your team has 2 Coleman medallists and about 7 x AA’s in it.

What a stupid comment to make just because it’s your opinion only - I had Patrick winning and let’s face it Daicos wasnt too far behind!We hate Patrick because we don't share the he opinion he was the best player this year, let alone the greatest player ever?
How is this possible?
Karl sounds nothing like Jarman
Amon sounds nothing like Impey
One wears #10, one wears #4
Do they just look at a bloke and think "yeah I'm pretty sure I've seen him running around in a Port jumper, it must be player X"?
The best way to ensure players get close to the votes they deserve is have a panel appointed that gives every player a rating out of 10 for every game they played. One of the issues is that by rewarding so few each game it exaggerates the impact of star players that don't have other star midfielder's taking votes off them. Dusty in 2017 for me was the standout as he was able to do it in a dominant team with multiple other players playing well that had Dusty not been there would have been up there or deserved winners.Ben Cousins 20 votes won it. I remember being in awe when Judd got 30.
Cripps had a ripper season & is a deserved Brownlow winner - however not a chance he deserved 40 ****ing 5 votes. Him getting 45 has not inspired the same awe in me as Judd getting 30.
Dusty 36 in 2017 was the GOAT season and Cripps would be the first to admit he was not 9 votes better
What's objectively stupid about an opinion that Cripps wasn't the best player this year?What a stupid comment to make just because it’s your opinion only - I had Patrick winning and let’s face it Daicos wasnt too far behind!
I would have no problem with the Coaches Votes being the new Brownlow.
Where they don't become public throughout the year & it's read out on Brownlow night the same style.
I think the coaches hold a lot more credibility than the umpires. that's just my thoughts on a new system.
It probably won't change anyway but it wasn't always 1,2-3 system with the umps. I feel like it's outdated now.
I don’t think Cripps winning is seen as wrong, just the crazy 45 votes and general midfield centric voting which has reached new levels across the board.
