OBREE FOR THE BROWNLOW

Ok i will be the first one to say it :

"OBREE FOR THE BROWNLOW"

The guy is an absoloute gun and must be polling votes week in and week out. I put money on Obree when he was at 81-1 and im feeling like he will go very close to winning it.

He is tireless, gets the hardball and has the dreadlocks which will make him stand out.

Good Luck Obree for the rest of the year and i hope you can win the Brownlow.

Someone on BigFooty said that too. And it wasn't a Pie fan either. Can't remember who it was now. But the rastaman is definitely a big chance. Great player. And always as busy as a Belfast bricklayer.

But I don't really think he'll win football highest individual award, The Copeland Trophy. I'd say Buckley, Tarrant, Fraser, Lonie, Rocca and maybe a few others will finish ahead of him.

81 to 1 !!!
Great odds there
I still think he'd be an outside bet , but certainly not at those odds, give hm a couple more great games (a matter of when not if) and he will shorten to single figures.. I cetainly like a piece of 81 to 1 now, and will watch with interest to see how rounds 12 to 22 go.
What did you put on him ??? ,and we all hope you come through

brings me back to Eddies comment at the start of last year re Obree beig the recruit of the year
