    I like how Heeney, Warner & Gulden rec'd 76 votes between them, The rest of the team rec'd 27 combined. Blakey, an All Australian got 4. Rowbottom got 4.
    Hayward kicked 38 goals in the H & A and got 2 votes. And then we had Cripps on TV yesterday saying he thought he might get 40 votes before the count.
    The fact that a normally sane person thinks they might get that many votes just shows just how silly the Brownlow counting has become.
    Imagine if Paul Kelly had said in 1995 (when he won with 21) had said "I thought I might have got 40 votes". Surely the AFL realizes just how loopy the
    Brownlow has become.

      And the voting for Carlton's two All Australians was: Cripps - 45 votes, Weitering - 0 votes.

        That is just embarrassing. They really just need to take the voting from the umpires.
