Swans who ruffle feathers

As far as the Brownlow is concerned, no way known Kirk will win but I wouldn't be surprised if he polls the odd vote or two. He hasn't just been tagging - he's been contributing in a positive way as well - and all the publicity he's been getting in recent weeks must have alerted the umps' attention to his roles. Could possibly score a vote or two in the Freo game.

Yep - Freo is the only game I reckon he might have picked up a vote in this year. Partly because of the 3 goals he kicked and partly because his name is in the media more. I just don't think he's the type of player who gets noticed. Many of his possessions are very fast out of a pack.

It won't be a Swan collecting the Brownlow this season. Too even a side.

Kirk deserves to be the favourite for the B & F as he has yet to play a bad game this season. Four more of the same quality will win it for him. Bolton J and Goodesy for the minors.

hehe, always funny bringing up past predictions, which seem very reasonable at the time

btw, i know i shouldn't bring up the past, but i couldn't help how funny it is that WE ALL predicted the brownlow and b&f so wrong.
lol

Know I'm being a smart-arse here, but my comments predicted Goodes as favourite (for the B&F), Kirk the next most likely and Jude the next. I even got Leo for a top 5 finish! Was a little bit off with Cressa, mind...

Speak for yourself! I put my money where my mouth is on Goodes as early as round 3!

From memory I put my top 5 for the best and fairest on the night it was happening - not having seen any votes. I got the top five in order.

Yes, well I missed the boat on that one, but while you are trawling my pearls of wisdom Thommo One, don't forget to mention how I was berated for stating that the Swans would finish top 4. Then there was my other prediction that all interstate sides would make the finals in 2003. Both predictions were made prior to a ball being bounced in Round 1.

I won't be making any predictions this year however. There's just too much pressure.
