The What Might Have Been Award

[pazza]

One effort from the Brownlow was that of Essendon's Mark McVeigh.

This is a bloke who missed at least 7 games and played injured in a few more. Still managed to pull 13 votes. Imagine if he had played all 22 games fully fit?

And then imagine if Ablett hadn't missed 4 games...

But they both missed games so it's really a pointless exercise.

 

[scarecrow2k1]

Richo also missed 3

Imagine if Ablett played in 22 games fully fit....

 

[RUNVS]

Goodes played at about 60% for most of the season (and missed 2 games aswell) and still came 5th in the Brownlow. Imagine how many points he would have scored if he was fully fit

 

[Hollow Knight]

If we didn't capitulate to Carlton after being 32 points up, Black would have his second Brownlow.

 

[ManWithNoName]

In 2004 Hird finished 4 or so votes behind the winner having missed 6 or 7 games.

 

[Thrawn]

If we didn't capitulate to Carlton after being 32 points up, Black would have his second Brownlow.

How do you reckon that?

 

[blues4flag]

According to the BF scholars, Judd's groins were screwed and was only a shadow of his former self, yet still managed 16. Imagine what he'd have polled if he was fully fit.

 

[MB1908]

Imagine if a player from a team on the bottom rung of the ladder won the Brownlow...

That would be simply terrible. So glad a player on a good team won.

 

[SirJimi05]

All he is saying is that it is a pretty fair effort from Spike.

Just as it was a great effort by Gazza to get so close after missing 4 games.

It alway's becomes a dick measuring contest.

 

[citizen-erased]

i think the winner of this award should be richo. imagine if he got rd22 under his belt and played a blinder against the dockers. i think the room would have erupted like a stones concert.

Richo played round 22.

But yes it would have been great to see him win.

 

[inflames1919]

Imagine if Cooney had a good second half to the season

 

[Hollow Knight]

Imagine if Cooney had a good second half to the season

Imagine if Black did. 20 votes at half way.

 

[vast]

Imagine Bob Skilton was still playing

 

[tin can sam]

Imagine if Kepler Bradley played all 22 games and polled 3 votes in all of those games.

He'd be remembered as the best player ever.

 

[Silvagnis]

Imagine if Marc Murphy was as good as Dale Thomas.

He'd have zero votes in this year's Brownlow medal.

 

[cheros eagles]

imagine if ben cousins played all 22 games and fired up he would have won for sure

 

[MadMac]

Imagine if......ahhh, nevermind

 

[Shinboner '07]

imagine if Jason Laycock got 1 vote, he'd be celebrating like theres no tomorrow

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

Imagine if...


They weren't so ****ing obsessed with onballers.


But alas even if a defender kept Buddy to 0 touches they'd still not get a vote.

Exactly.
This award really took a nose dive this year.
Bit of a joke this year really.

he was a shadow of his former self.

Thats why he only polled 16 votes.

 

[RUNVS]

Imagine Bob Skilton was still playing

He cant as somebody at the Swans already has his number.
