Patrick Cripps: 2024 AFL Brownlow Medal Winner
CARLTON captain Patrick Cripps has won the 2024 Brownlow Medal with a record tally, becoming the 17th player in VFL/AFL history to win the prestigious award multiple times after adding to his 2022 triumph in an historic count on Monday night.
Cripps, who was in the medal-winning position from round six, polled an incredible 45 votes to win from Collingwood superstar Nick Daicos on 38, with the Magpies' brilliant onballer also breaking the previous record of 36.
Cripps was confirmed as the winner at round 21, polling three votes against Collingwood to ensure he could not be passed. When Daicos polled two votes in round 22, Cripps was declared the outright winner with two rounds to go.
It was an historic night as Carlton's inspirational leader smashed through the 40-vote mark and broke the previous record jointly held by Port Adelaide midfielder Ollie Wines (2021) and Richmond champion and 2017 winner Dustin Martin.
Port Adelaide midfielder Zak Butters (29, Fremantle vice-captain Caleb Serong (28), and Greater Western Sydney midfielder Tom Green (27) rounded out the top five, with Sydney's ineligible superstar Isaac Heeney polling 28 votes.
It was Cripps who always had their measure, however, after establishing an eight-vote lead at round 16 and leaning on a strong finish to the season to see off the charging Daicos, who polled in a record 10 consecutive games from round eight to 18.
Cripps joined champion midfielders Chris Judd and Greg Williams as dual medallists to have represented Carlton, but he became the first to win two Brownlow Medals as a Blue.
The crowning night capped off an outstanding season for the 29-year-old, who played every game and averaged 28.8 disposals, 8.0 clearances, 15.7 contested possessions, and 4.8 inside 50s, earning All Australian selection for the fourth time.
The 29-year-old accepted his medal from coach and 2006 winner Michael Voss and spoke about growing up in Northampton in Western Australia, looking up to West Coast superstars Ben Cousins and Chris Judd and dreaming of joining them as a Brownlow Medal winner.
"They probably inspired me to chase my dream, and now I'm in a position to inspire other young kids, and I don't take that lightly," Cripps said.
"I'm just someone who wants to chase my dreams and I love doing it. Now I know the impact I've had on young kids coming through, it's pretty special.
"All kids out there, or anyone in general, if you get after it in life and have a dream and work hard at it, you can do amazing things. Life is short, so get after it."
Cripps also paid tribute to the support of his wife Monique after the couple became parents to daughter Koda this year, with the midfielder happy and settled off the field in his 11th season.
He said his parents, Brad and Cath, had instilled great values in him that he carried still after being drafted with pick No.13 in the 2013 National Draft.
Last year's medallist Lachie Neale was considered a contender to go back-to-back but never got on a roll, finishing on 22 votes as he prepares for Saturday's Grand Final.
Heeney, who was ineligible to win after being suspended for striking in round 17, was atop the leaderboard for five weeks during the first half of the season but only polled seven votes after round 10.
Heeney and well ahead of Daicos (four) and Neale (two), who were expected to start slowly.
Daicos was entering a five-game block of outstanding form, however, and emerged with 13 of a possible 15 votes, rising to third with 17 votes to put himself back in the race.
Cripps was shaping as unstoppable, however, having kept his tally ticking over with three best afield matches to secure an outright lead after round 12 with 22 votes.
He was never headed from there, polling the maximum three votes six more times in the last 10 games to win in commanding style.
2024 Brownlow Medal, Top 10 Patrick Cripps - 45 Nick Daicos - 38 Zak Butters - 29 Caleb Serong - 28 Isaac Heeney* - 28 Tom Green - 27 Adam Treloar - 26 Errol Gulden - 25 Matt Rowell - 25 Jai Newcombe - 24

once, JUST ONCE. I would like to see this at a Brownlow.
The winner takes the stage, the medallion presented to him. The host asks the first question, the winner looks at the host for a few seconds, before pulling from his jacket a piece of paper. His silence, indicating he will read from the paper instead of answering the questions.
He reads from the piece of paper an epic poem. As the speech goes on, it rises in drama and emotional force, the audience tensing, leaning into the orator. Before long, everyone is on their feet, enraptured, ecstatic, at which point the orator is clasping his medal with white knuckled force, the paper crumpled, he has knocked over the lectern and microphone, and now shouts into the room, the force of his voice giving rise to the pandemonium.
The revelations, betrayals, reconciliations, tragedy and triumphs delivered in the epic poem has gorged the attendees with intoxicating feeling, the formal tone of the event has cracked, given way to reactions of emotional intensity and force. Shouts are heard, the air in the room becomes humid from corporeal excitement, people are crying, weeping, rejoicing.
The orator describes a character that tells of an ancient and unravelling truth. In response, the interviewer yelps with a strange, unsettling stacatto cry. Order is completely broken. The horde responds with cries and groans and movement. Knives, forks, knapkins, breadrolls, clothing, all fly about. The room is a scene of bacchanalian excess, wine stains every surface, women shout, men leap onto tables, clothes are ripped from skin, animal cries emerge desperately from mouths aimed toward God, people confess, cry, murder, lovemake, at which point the epic poem is something like music that can be felt, a sonic and physical component animating the horde who are entirely under its spell. Against their will, expressing their most primal and base desires entirely without inhibition.
The oration stops. People break from their ecstasy, appear to resume normal consciousness, finding themselves curiously entangled with strangers. They look around the room, confused by the scenes of disorder and destruction, wondering what happened. The Brownlow winner returns to his table. Football has changed forever.

Lachie Neale: 2023 AFL Brownlow Medal Winner
STAR Brisbane midfielder Lachie Neale has won the 2023 Brownlow Medal, becoming just the 16th player in VFL/AFL history to win the prestigious award multiple times after prevailing in a thrilling count on Monday night.
Neale, who won the 2020 Brownlow Medal in a dominant season and will be playing to win his first premiership in Saturday's Grand Final, polled 31 votes to win from Western Bulldogs captain Marcus Bontempelli on 29.
The brilliant onballer was confirmed as the winner only after collecting three votes in the final round of the season, with five players entering round 24 as winning chances.
Collingwood star Nick Daicos (28 votes) finished third after entering the final round level with Neale, with Sydney wingman Errol Gulden (27), Port Adelaide star Zak Butters (27), and Melbourne Norm Smith medallist Christian Petracca narrowly behind on 26.
It was Neale who surpassed them all, however, after saving his seventh best on ground performance until the final round of the year, receiving his Medal in Brisbane as he prepares for Saturday's Grand Final.
Neale joined club great's Jason Akermanis (2001) and Simon Black (2002) in winning the Brownlow Medal during the week of a Grand Final appearance, with Michael Voss (1996) making it five Medals in total for Brisbane.
The former Docker, who joins ex-teammate Nat Fyfe as a dual winner, was rewarded for a season in which he averaged 27.4 disposals across 23 home-and-away games, averaging 8.1 clearances as one of the game's stoppage specialists.
It was a different season for Neale compared to his 2020 win, which also saw him poll 31 votes but instead win by a massive 10 votes from runner-up Travis Boak, also collecting the AFL Players Association MVP and AFL Coaches Association Player of the Year.
The ball-winner, who was runner-up to Patrick Cripps last year, was caught by surprise as he emerged as a winning threat through the evening.
He was the first player to win the most prestigious individual award without being named in the All-Australian team since West Coast midfielder Matt Priddis in 2014.
"It doesn't sit very well at the moment. I'm sure it will sink in at a later date. I'm pretty rattled to be honest," Neale said after being presented with his Medal by coach Chris Fagan at a function with teammates in Brisbane.
"I did not expect this, and to be amongst some of those names that have won two is unbelievable. To be in Brisbane, preparing for a Grand Final, is amazing. I haven't been involved in this week for a decade, so I'm excited."
It was heartbreak for Bontempelli, who was also runner-up in 2021. Daicos, meanwhile, led the count for seven weeks after round 17 but couldn't hold on.
The young Magpies star, in just his second season, was the pre-count favourite and made a fast start as expected, polling 13 votes to lead after six rounds with three early best-on-ground performances.
His votes dried up over the next four rounds, however, with the midfielder overlooked for votes in some of the bigger performances of his season, including a 41-disposal game against Greater Western Sydney in round nine.
Petracca and Neale instead made a run and jockeyed at the top of the leaderboard through the middle stages, with Neale taking the lead back for a three-week run after round 14.
Gold Coast midfielder Noah Anderson was the surprise vote-getter, sitting as high as equal second after 15 rounds following his fifth best-on-ground performance and remaining in striking distance thereafter.
The leading contenders all pressed with big games in round 16, with Daicos collecting his second consecutive set of three votes to move into second place on the leaderboard, just one vote behind Neale.
The 20-year-old continued to surge in a stunning run of post-bye form and took the outright lead in round 17 during a run of four consecutive best-on-ground performances.
Daicos had a battle on his hands knowing injury would strike early in the round 21 clash against Hawthorn, but he held the lead all the way to the final round of the season.
BROWNLOW MEDAL 2023 LEADERBOARD
Lachie Neale (Brisbane Lions) – 31
Marcus Bontempelli (Western Bulldogs) – 29
Nick Daicos (Collingwood) – 28
=4. Zak Butters (Port Adelaide), Errol Gulden (Sydney Swans) – 27
Christian Petracca (Melbourne) – 26
=7. Caleb Serong (Fremantle), Jack Viney (Melbourne) – 24
=9. Noah Anderson (Gold Coast Suns), Patrick Cripps (Carlton) – 22

Make it hurt less
I'm sorry, if only Nick's pesky teammates hadn't stolen votes off him earlier in the count.
Pffft, that stupid lion, he's already got a Brownlow GIVE SOMEONE ELSE A TURN.
Sigh. I wish pesto petracca had polled better. I wish Ash Johnson had won mark of the year. I wish Noah Anderson had actually won, turned to his date Matthew and lent in for a kiss and Matt smiles wider and bits of grass froth out of Matt's mouth and Noah pauses right before his lips touch Matt's and asks "where's this from?" And Matt answers "the lawn outside Nana's house" and Noah presses his lips against Matt's and then leans back, smiles, says "I think that's your best yet" and then goes up on stage to collect his medal.
#anon#anon could've been asking about anything and i turn it into my pain about Nick losing the 2023 Brownlow#anon could like be dying and needing help and I'm like lmao noah kissed Matt bye#I'm a terrible person#I'm sorry anon#I'm mean to the anonymous people though they should know that already#i mean I'm not a doctor don't come to me to make the pain go away#The only things I'm qualified to give you is chicken cup a soup and eight jam biscuits and espressos
