Now i have been looking into to this Brownlow caper
Chris Judd won in 2004 and was highest disposal winner in most rounds but one thing that did standout was his tackling
His stats were as follows:
KICKS -317
HANDBALLS -165
Marks -49
Tackles- 80
Goals-22/13

Now I thought whats all the fuss with Ben Cousins
His Stats up to RD 13
KICKS-205
HANDBALLS-117
Marks-71
Tackles-11
Goals-13/7

And finally one JONATHON BROWN
Rd 6-Rd 13
KICKS-84
HANDBALLS-62
Marks-67
Tackles-9
Goals 27/10

So what does all this prove
Looking at Chris Judds stats you could say that his activity around the rucks and being a team player swayed the judges(anyone know what the criteria is for points allocation)
Remember last year all the fuss about Warren Trdrea and Nick(dont hurt me) Riewoldt.They didnt poll very well

Centrebet has Cousins at $3.25/$1.56 favourite
Jonathon Brown has firmed from $251 to $8 since before he played in round 6
I like Cousins but $3.25 is pretty short with 9 weeks to go
Cheers
