Most “Statistic” Without a Brownlow Vote in a Single Game

Kicking a bag or getting leather poisoning doesn’t always translate to Brownlow votes.

Have you ever wondered what the record is for the most goals kicked in a game where the player failed to poll a Brownlow vote?

Even if the answer is no, you might find the following list of players with the most “statistics” in a single game who did not receive a Brownlow vote interesting!

Table: Most “Statistic” Without a Brownlow Vote in a Single Game, 1984-2022

Seven players with nine centre clearances and no Brownlow votes: Matt Priddis (R1 2012), Travis Boak (R1 2013), Jack Steven (R6 2013), Gary Ablett (R4 2014), Scott Thompson (R4 2015), Tom Liberatore (R8 2021), and Christian Petracca (R10 2021).

Will we see any of these records broken, or added to, on football’s night of nights in 2023?
