Too late to get on Goodes for his third Brownlow?

[DeadlyAkkuret]

He was pretty average today so therefore will most likely get the 3 brownlow votes from the umpires.

You didn't watch the 2nd half did you, or any of the game for that matter. Average? Lol.

 

[winty]

If he can pick up two votes for a 15 possession game in a side that lost by seven goals like he did against Geelong in 2008, anything's possible.

 

[snrub]

Only have him on 3 votes so far. 2 for today. He'd have to play more time in the middle if he wants a 3rd Brownlow.

I think you're being harsh on a few Sydney players who busted a gut today. Goodesy didn't look all that interested for large parts of the game. He did enough to help his team win, but definitely not in your best 4 or 5 I didn't think.

I thought Hanners, Bradshaw and Goodes were our clear best 3. Goodes changed the game going into the middle.

 

[Wheres Wally]

Umpires pet so why couldnt he win it. Do champions win brownlows, i mean ask CAREY Jezza , ABLETT etc what they think. I would of picked any of these three before goodes and none won blownlows.

You were watching the Carlton game right?

You lot are notorious for not handling criticism well.

P'raps we should constantly ask for moderator intervention in any puff piece thread on our club like Norf sooks do.

I like that tag, the worst three time brownlow medalist in history. 3 people in history have achieved this honour. Why stop there. Sehwag is the worst cricketer in history to have scored over 300 in an innings twice.

If he did would he be the worst 3 time winner ever? Has there been any others who have won it 3 times?
Good player but not 3 Brownlows good. Probably shouldnt of got the first one.

Nah, he just tied for that first one with Buckley and some Crows hack. Neither of them deserved a Brownlow either, obviously. Hard to say anyone who won a Brownlow didn't deserve it. By the time they have won two it's hard dispute their skill. 3 = legend of the game.

 

[Viktor]

By "get on" Goodes, do you mean betting on him to win the Brownlow?

If so, then no, it's not too late. You can bet on him up until the start of the Brownlow count, or up until he gets suspended.

Good luck.

Is Adolf Hitler the worst person to ever win Time magazine Man of the Year?

 

[damochandler]

never too late. he could still be 20 bucks at the end of this weekend and there will be a few that would have taken votes off him already

 

[Viktor]

never too late.[...]

Well that definitely isn't true.

 

[NMFC ALWAYS]

What a player !

Didnt get great numbers but was clearly the most damaging player on the ground .

 

[damochandler]

Well that definitely isn't true.

well lets see. you can still bet up to last round of voting on brownlow night

 

[r_boy]

Gee this guy is a gamebreaker. Was a tug of war for most of the match just crying out for someone to stand up then Goodes just went into the middle and ripped the game in two.

Which name are you scrubbing out of history? Bobby Skilton?

**** me, didn't Jezza and Goodesy have some epic battles?

Don't be silly, clearly You took that honour in 2006.

 

[rose jam]

2 things against him; he's not playing in the middle, and Swans won't win enough games

 

[stellation]

Settle down. He wasn't even in the top 3 or 4 on the ground today. Although, he will probably still get the 3 votes from the umpires.

Name 3 or 4 players who were clearly better than him.

 

[potatomasher]

How does that make him undeserving?

Basically, if you get more votes, you were in the top three for more games, and therefore, in my eyes, you were a more deserving winner.

 

[nthblood]

Harvey had 25 touches and kicked a goal. He is in the mix.

I would personally lean to Kirk for his 15 tackles. He and Swallow (13 tackles) put on a 2 man war today.



You lot are notorious for not handling criticism well.

You are kidding, mention Norf merging or dieing, you guys go off your head, you even have people banned for having a opinion on it, oh well the truth hurts.

He played in the middle for the second half yesterday and the Swans ran away with it, I doubt that went unnoticed by the coaching staff. I'd expect to see him start forward and spend more time in the middle (derr!) for most games. Nice trump card to play.

As far as not winning enough games, the Swans haven't exactly started in a way that screams "warning, warning, rubbish season ahead" this year.

That doesn't explain why he wasn't deserving in 2003.
