Brownlow Medallist
Way back when the draw was released a wise contributor said something along the lines of "you don't know how hard the draw will be until the season starts". The draw from hell was tough, but not nearly as bad as it looked in November with Collingwood, WC and North having struggled in the first part of the season, and hence the beginning of the year seems to have been the right time to have faced them.
