What do you have Neale on?After this round I've got Cripps on 24-26 votes
Give or take 1-2 annual howlers and 1-2 shit games that miraculously got 3 votes out of the blue.
23-25What do you have Neale on?
17-19What do you have Neale on?
Yes but the same was said last yearthere is no way Neale is on 23-25 lol
Yes but the same was said last year
umps get bagged for this all the time yet they do a pretty remarkable job overall, if they didn't then coaches votes wouldn't correlate so well with them.Exactly... two bs 3 vote games out of his arse gets him there.
The umps can barely umpire the game properly so theres no way their voting is going to be inline with any game by game predictors.
Some players are overpollers and some underpollers. Neale/Cripps types are overpollers.

Neale was 6th favourite and this comparison that got posted in last years thread shows how close he was, he wasn't a massive upset who had no right of winning.
They have 3 less wins than last year, he has played one less match, he is not going to be on what he had last year at this stage.
We just have different standards for the umps which is fair enough. Plenty of examples like Neale getting the 3 in R6 with 20 possies instead of Cameron when he kicked 7 which is damn hard for a small forward is why I have my view.
I didnt look at my tally when I made the reply that Neale can poll out of his arse. He very likely isnt on 23-25 but he can easily poll plenty of 3s in the remaining games to catch up. Looking at articles it said he was 5th fav last year at $13. To me $13 is a fair upset but no non trolling person is going to say he has no right of winning since hes always polled well playing for the Lions.
70% of 10 coaches votes are 3s for Brownlow, its one of the stronger external counts to help in brownlow modelling, this is what I meant.
All awards have examples of bad votes being given out, just need to look at the Herald Sun each week, Coaches have their favourites also. AFL MVP is voted by the players, half of whom don't watch footy probably.
Overall I would say the umpires do a good job overall at it, never going to please everyone, you have mentioned why they show their bias which should be used in anybody's own handicapping of the brownlow.
Shouldn't get any. He was invisible in the 2nd half.Daicos had the 3 wrapped up at half time. Then barely fired a shot. Does he vote? I’m sure Fly will give him coaches votes
