Queensland’s shot at hosting the AFL grand final is firming, but it’s not the only major sporting event on the state’s radar.
They’re the wives and girlfriends set to stun at the MCG as their footy player partners hit the ground for the Tigers and GWS. These are the WAGs to watch on Grand Final Day.
Nat Fyfe has become the 15th player to win multiple Brownlow Medals after running away with a huge lead late in the count. However, without some choice words from his former coach, it could have been very different.
She may be little but the Brownlow Medal has uncovered a new star with Isla Roschow getting huge praise for her red carpet brilliance.
TRENT Cotchin and Sam Mitchell’s first outing as Brownlow Medallists was awkward because of the elephant, or should that be shadow, in the room, Scott Gullan writes.
WHEN Sam Mitchell reflects on 2012, he doesn’t think about a season that earnt him the Brownlow Medal. Instead, he thinks of a harrowing time for his young family.
WE’VE revised the votes in every Essendon game from 2012 to find out how the count would pan out if Jobe Watson and the Essendon 34 couldn’t poll. The result is insanely close but with one clear winner.
TWO Brownlow Medallists believe Trent Cotchin and Sam Mitchell now deserve the 2012 award — but only reckons Jobe Watson made the right call to give it up.
COMMENT: NOBODY in our game has ever felt the amount of pressure Jobe Watson has been under for the past four years. How he responded reveals a lot, writes SAM LANDSBERGER.
EXCLUSIVE: THE AFL took the highly unusual step of asking runner-up Sam Mitchell to make a submission about Jobe Watson’s Brownlow Medal early this year, writes Jon Ralph.
BROWNLOW Medallist Patrick Dangerfield has no doubt he can take his game to even greater heights after crusing to a record-breaking win on Monday night.
THERE were several head-scratching moments but in the end the best — and fairest — player in the competition won a worthy Brownlow Medal, writes JON RALPH.
