What happened at the 2010 Brownlow Medal?
Carlton’s Chris Judd was the runaway winner of the 2010 Brownlow Medal and his victory was somewhat of a shock. Judd missed the first three weeks after carrying over a suspension from the 2009 season but came out with a bang and led polling at the half-way mark after a string of best-on-ground performances. Judd polled 30 votes to beat Gary Ablett on 26 votes with hot favourite Dane Swan on 24. Dane Swan was the shortest priced favourite in many years, going out odds-on after a stellar season but with teammate Scott Pendlebury also polling well Swan was never in contention.
2011 Brownlow Odds
Brownlow Medal betting for 2011 is a hotly contested affair with two-time winner Chris Judd, perennial under-performer (at least according to the umpires) Dane Swan and 2009 winner Gary Ablett at the top of betting. Gary Ablett is looking to become the second player in two years to win the Brownlow Medal at two different clubs. Ablett has moved to the new Gold Coast franchise and will be looking to turn in another stellar season and push the new team into the finals in their first year.
Chris Judd will also be looking to become only the fifth player in AFL history to win three Brownlow Medals.
