Brownlow Medal 2024

The glitz. The glamour. The 100,000 betting ads.

I’m tipping P Cripps to win, but my focus will be on how Essendon players poll.

Zach Merrett should move to third all time most Brownlow votes for Essendon tonight. He’s also an outside chance to move to second all-time.

Sam Durham should poll his first career Brownlow votes. If Darcy Parish can pick up three votes across the season, he will overtake Jason Johnson and enter the top 30 all time for Essendon Brownlow votes. If Nic Martin can do the same, he’ll enter the top 100.

Ahh…

The annual highlights review package of what appears to be a ‘good’ season from Rounds 1 to about 14 … before we can relive the thrill of seeing us slide for the 15th time in the last 20 years.

I opened this thread wondering how it’d be tied back to the club in a negative way and definitely didn’t have to wait long to find out.

I was too positive a few weeks back. Now too negative.

I really need to get the balance right…

In hindsight, was the players jumper number a necessary part of this otherwise interesting table?

Lav to get off the mark tonight. Maybe Weid too.

Ah ha, the fix is in :wink:

He would be if they were counting my votes.
