Champion data is just as bad as the umps it’s a guide nothing more or less.
I’ve said it for years the umps should be able to have the stats in front of them while voting

Dual Brownlow Medallist use to be an accolade reserved for the best of the best midfielders.
Ablett Jr, Judd, Goodes, Fyfe.
Even modern superstars like Martin and Dangerfield were only ever able to get one.
In the last 5 years, Neale and Cripps are now in the same class as the first four mentioned. At this rate I think N Daicos will have 5 Brownlows by the end of his career.

Not in my opinion... but I'm not an umpire.
Cripps is 2/3 of a footballer - that 2/3 is very, very good but there's a lot he doesn't do. The stuff he does is very visible to the umps. Same with Daicos. That's why players like Rowbottom don't poll well in the Brownlow, the umps don't notice that third. Why defenders don't poll. The award is flawed.

The whole thing feels broken. They should make the umpires pick one midfielder, one defender and one forward/ruckman with their three votes. Will likely still skew towards the ball accumulators but at least a consistent defender, forward or ruckman like Max Gawn might have an outside chance of snagging one in a stand-out season.

Just woke up to see Cripps won with 45 votes. Now there's a record that'll never be beaten...
Good player, but dual Brownlow medalist good? Wouldn't have thoughtso.
