MRP forgot to consult Cameron Ling who cleared up on the night that there was nothing in it. The whole mess could have been avoided!

What are the odds he'll appeal and the full tribunal will discover a way for him to get off?

It will be an interesting test of the "I don't care about the Brownlow, I just want the team to win" mantra

They'll have to invite Dangerfield anyway to hand over the medal and it's going to be as awkward as gently caress.

The cats will probably be pretty keen for Paddy to appeal, winning a brownlow would be great for their PR

He wasn't at the 2011 count he nearly beat Dane Swan in, per youtube. It might have been the 2008 count, in which he would have received an automatic invite as club captain, but that one isn't on youtube.

I must be the only Geelong person who doesn't care if Dangerfield doesn't get the Brownlow this year. I mean the GOAT Gary Ablett Snr never won it.

My favourite Dangerfield related take is from Jon Ralph: "Helps add another layer to the legend of Patty. Took one for the team, prepared to sacrifice for that elusive flag"

AFL journalists "We need to take a stand against thuggery, and on field violence. We need to protect players from sloppy and ill disciplined acts that can cause injury. Except of course if said acts are perpetrated by a 'good bloke' or a good player in the hunt to win an award." gently caress that. Nothing against Danger, but he laid a dangerous tackle that caused injury to his opponent. Others have gotten more for less. Of course all the fellating and gnashing of teeth will end up being funny when Danger finishes 2nd to Dusty anyway. Testekill posted:So who is taking bets on how long Deledio lasts in his return before his hamstrings explode As long as O'Meara's knee lasted. So, not long.

Wouldn't be surprised if the AFL instructed the umps to not give Danger any more votes this year and to pile some more on Dusty, just to make sure it turns out ok /conspiracy theories.

Having a floating draw before a pre-finals bye doesn't really make much sense if you're giving the Crows the death slot.

I caught the bit on Footy Classified last night; Hutchy basically outlined that he thought there should be one rule for stars and one rule for everyone else, because he's incapable of viewing anything without his media lens, and that the fairest part should be removed from the Brownlow; Lloyd and Caro both thought it was a dangerous tackle, the rule was right, and he was correct to be rubbed out for it, and Lyon prevaricated with "that's the way the rule currently is" because he's never stuck his neck out to make an opinion on anything in his life. The Deadly Hume posted:Having a floating draw before a pre-finals bye doesn't really make much sense if you're giving the Crows the death slot. Why the gently caress do we get Sunday twilight while the Hawks and Bulldogs who won't even be in the finals get Friday night?!
