There were no such surprises with Patrick Cripps’ second Brownlow Medal. But not even the most rusted-onfan could have predicted such a demolition. He and Nick Daicos were expected to go stride for stride. But the Carlton champion finished seven votes ahead. He smashed Dustin Martin and Ollie Wines’ record for the most votes in a season, and became the 17th man to win a Brownlow medal at least two times.Photograph: Michael Willson/AFL Photos/Getty Images.
