I'll take that bet.

Forgot for a second this was the Brownlow, thought for some reason Scott was talking about the club's B&F.

Best polling Eagles player... definitely Lecras then.

Club B & F's often don't reflect Brownlow voting. backmen/hard workers/team players have more chance of polling well.

Nah, I had $40 ish for a while, didn't use it for anything but the nightly warm up challenge game (its how I qualified for the Challenge final, so easy).

Down to $20 the other day, I jump into a 50c/$1 game. Early on I pick up AJo and shove to a $3 raise. He tank calls me on KK (wtf), board comes A K x J A. Haha, awesome. Soon after, I have $42 and pick up KK on the button. Folds to me, I raise to $3 (too small, grr) and the BB calls. Flop 634r, and I get it all in against... 57hh.

So I have like, $6 left on 888. Will transfer with someone for Stars money soon so I can start playing Challenge games.

This is a good thread from BigFooty.
It's Champion Data's "Brownlow" votes which obviously can mean nothing (and usually does) but it's a nice idea.

CD has also worked out who will win the club champion awards - and has a good record of it in previous years.

vince only 8 votes, and mcleod 1?

i think the only problem with player ranking in determining who gets votes is that the winning team usually gets more votes.

so someone could be BOG ranking wise, but if they are in a losing team, they would basically never get 3 votes.
