49-41
Wouldn't that read that 9 out of 10 voted for Hogan?

9 out of 10 judges gave Hogan full votes... wow!
Now for the Brisbane PP announcement.
Edit..Correct Lods

That's correct, 9 out of 10 clearly had Hogan the winner. Hard to imagine given the seasons they had isn't it?
It's a fix, no doubt about it, in a year the AFL predicted a draw the voting is one-sided.
But then this is the same organization that runs the MRP.

So there are up to 22 players who are eligible.
From there 10 guys rank their top 5.
The player most highly ranked, in a very group think driven environment, gets the nod.
This is so subjective, how many of those numbnuts watched more than a quarter of the games each of these guys played?
Bigger fish to fry for thr Crippler than a bogus award.

Both of them are guns and either would have deserved the win, I'm not fazed by it.
Lewis Taylor beat Marcus Bontempelli last year but if you had to choose one to play for Carlton Bontempelli would get my vote.

Lucky for the AFL that FIFA exists......as they (the AFL) are as poorly run as any major sporting organisation you'll ever find. Everything they do is contrived.

Yep
Let's move on
No big deal
We know who we'd rather have.
I'd rather us sitting here having a bit of a whinge about it than have to put up with Cripps being denigrated as "unworthy" or 'lucky to win' by the anti Carlton commentators for the next couple of days.

You might think it is bogus, but in fairness to the lads it is a big deal!
The media pump Hogan up as a modest winner, but he rattled on about Cripps claiming he must have been wearing heels on stage because he thought he was clearly bigger than Cripps when they stood together on the G! That's because Cripps looked smaller as Hogan watched him run off into the distance with the pill!
Hardly magnanimous!
Re: Will Crippa win the rising star? - Brettie - 09-09-2015
One day soon Cripps will win a Brownlow. Hogan will not. How'd you like them apples Jesse!!!
Re: Will Crippa win the rising star? - Lods - 09-09-2015
I guess there is the $20,000 investment account...Hopefully the club can just add that to Cripps' salary
