I agree with Coco- 'Fairest' needs to stay

Post: # 1690057Post saintbrat »

as some have finally begun to point out- the award is distinctive because of it's point of difference.. Not the "Brownlow's fault that other awards have not yet gained to same prestige- or have fancy evenings.

Fairest'- is the major part- there are plenty of other awards they can win- why change it because players ' smudge the line.

“There has been too much tradition gone down the drain with the passing of generations and I think not everything in the old world was bad.

“They have to retain this great wealth and richness to the history of the game because in my view the Brownlow is still the most sought-after (individual award), so why change it?”

Despite the push to change the criteria, the move appears set to fall on deaf ears, with the AFL on Tuesday confirming it had no plans to review the Brownlow system.

“We haven’t had any discussions about the Brownlow Medal criteria,” spokesman Patrick Keane said.

Agreed. Is it betting agencies pushing for the fairness to be scrapped?
