Can the second best midfielder in a team with the Brownlow Medal?  Generally yes, when your best is Judd....maybe?

Marc Murphy has gone from being a consistently good player to a consistently great player in the space of one season.  His expected 2 votes on the weekend sees him equal 1st with those that are eligible - I have him now polling in 9 games, without one BOG.  A couple of those turn in to three on the night, and hed be in a very good position come the conclusion of round 13.

Looking around the teams, Mitchell has overtaken Franklin, and now has an extra game up his sleeve.  NM is becoming very close, with any of Swallow, Wells and Harvey a chance.  Fantastic odds on Harvey at the moment considering his history (most NM votes every year going as far back as I can remember), + could have 3 BOGs to date.

Dustin Martin is also pulling away from both Cotchin and Deledio, although hes not there yet.  Youd think Priddis is nearly home now too.
