thought i'd jump in...

When was the last time that 3 or more Brownlow Medalists played for the same team, in the same game???

st_craig · Post: # 58108Post **st_craig** » Thu 14 Oct 2004 1:53pm

Didn't Voss, Aker and Black play for Brisbane in the GF?

Yeah.... (just realising that i should have actually had 4, not 3 in my question).

Any idea about 4???

st_craig · Post: # 58111Post **st_craig** » Thu 14 Oct 2004 2:04pm

Not really, but I would guess at Fitzroy back in the late 1930s

st_craig · Post: # 58120Post **st_craig** » Thu 14 Oct 2004 2:59pm

How about Dempsey, Greig, Blight and Glendinning at North?

Were they Brownlow Medallists at the time.

We would have had Lockett, Harvey and Brian Wilson in the same team but before Harvey had won a Brownlow.

Melbourne is the closest I can get (in 1983)

They had:

Peter Moore played 83-87 (won in 79 playing for wobbles)
Kelvin Templeton played 83-85 (won in 80 playing for footscray)
Brian Wilson played 82-90 (won in 82 for melbourne)

and Gerard Healy played 79-85 for Melbourne but didn't win until 1988 when he was playing for sydney

Four Brownlows (actually already won) - I'd like to see that.

North had 3 in 1984 (Greig, Dempsey and Glendinning) - Blight retired in 1982.
In 1981 North actually had 5 players who had won or who would go on to win the medal (including Brian Wilson played 80/81 won 82 at melbourne and Glendinning played 78-86 won in 83).

Fitzroy had 3 in 1937 (Bunton, Smallhorn and Ryan)

Stewart (65,66), Smith (67) and Howell (59) played for the Saints in 1968

Go Saints

Im pretty sure it was changed when St. Kilda recruited Silvio Foschini and Shane Morwood in 1983...

we found a loop hole and the league bannished the rule... so it may have officially changed in 1984???

I'm guessing is it a State/State of origin side?????

and I'll speak on behalf of Jnr it was well before 1983/84 think of Doug Wade and later big Carl.......

HarveysDeciple · Fri 15 Oct 2004 11:46am

1972 for the 10 year rule?
or was it 73?

St Fidelius · Fri 15 Oct 2004 12:37pm

Again I'll type on behalf of Jnr

Yep HD it was at the start of 1973 season

Well done

The question re: 4 x Brownlow medallists - I'll try North Melb around 81-82 I think with Dempsey, Greig, Blight and Glendinning??

no yiper...

HSV has said that I was right with Brad Hardie, he won in 1985

left to play for Brisbane 87-91

then Collingwood in 92-93

Iv'e checked and I don't think it can be Bulldogs, Brisbane or Collingwood,

thats why I've asked if it was a State/State of origin side?????

if it was WA - Glendenning, Hardie and maybe Graham Moss but don't know who else.........

Getting close...

yipper · Post: # 58385Post **yipper** » Fri 15 Oct 2004 3:52pm

If we are looking for 4 Brownlow medallists who played in the same team / same game and Hardie was one of em' - then I'm stumped. The WA state of Origin team had Hardie and Glendinning in it together, but stuffed if I can name anyone else. Hardie did not play for Victoria as far as I know - if he did, then that could be the answer.

St Fidelius · Post: # 58386Post **St Fidelius** » Fri 15 Oct 2004 3:53pm

Another guess...

1987 International Rules -
Platten
Dipper
Williams
Hardie
