Take the Brownlow away from the Umpires
Give it to a three man panel who must attend the game and then watch a replay within a day of the game.

Imagine one three man panel consisted of Darcy, KB and Ling. ;D
Ignorance is bliss.
ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

That's asking for trouble
While the AFL does change the rules regularly, the results of those changes are often counter-intuitive and I reckon that tampering with the Brownlow would be no different.

Suffice to say I was thinking of a three man group of impartiality, honour and integrity. :  ;D
As a result I didn't even consider any media men.
But you and DJC are right.....
Where would we find such a group

Does anyone else notice the irony?
Cripps B&F, Hogan 4th in the B&F, yet Cripps gets voted out of the Rising Star 9:1.
The AFL industry is nepotism personified, the Rising Star vote I declare officially bogus!
Next thing someone will be telling me you can get 44 possessions, BOG, perfect scores from the coaches, all the media awards for the round and still fail to get a Brownlow vote! :
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"

Just remember to remind Crippa when he runs out against The Dees,
"Hey Crippa, 9 out of 10 Rising Star judges reckon you're a spud, Hogan's got you covered!"
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"
