he gets a lot of free kicks for players trying to take his head off!


I got on Selwood when he was about $10.
I totally agree with the 'in the eye' sentiment when it comes to Brownlow considerations.

He's definately an umpires pet.

I chucked 20 on him at the start of the year at $31.

It would be impossible to not look like you are ripping his head off when every time he gets the ball his head drops and he rolls his shoulders down to ensure the arms of the tackler slip up around his head/neck.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

Didnt say he was a poor player or it is a bad tactic, just saying how I ( and many others )see it.

Ablett will have a double figures lead after Round 11 and will go onto win comfortably.
Selwood wont get close to Ablett.
The Abletts already lead the father/son Brownlow tally when either player has scored at least a vote, that lead will widen further tonight.

Would like to see Vince win it but highly unlikely.
Top 3:
Ablett (24)
Montagna (22)
Selwood (21)
Go you Redbacks!

Ablett 5 votes to be equal leader after 2 rounds, I can't believe Richo got 3 votes over him in Rd 2 when Geelong won! :roll:

Don't click if you don't want a spoiler! They've just completed round 2.

Wedgie: you might want to put a spoiler alert in the thread title?
