The Brownlow Medal Predictor is back for AFL Season 2022.
All the projected votes, vote chances, key statistics, star ratings and leaderboards will be released gradually towards the latter stages of the 2022 AFL Season.
The DailySportsBuddy Brownlow Medal Predictor uses a model that focuses on analysing matches and key statistics that have been consistent from past winners and top performers in previous Brownlow Medal Counts.
Statistics are not everything, but the award is generally a midfielder’s award, with midfielders making up most of the top ten in previous Brownlow Medal Counts.
It is impossible to predict the entire season’s votes in order, but with a bit of research, most players who are a chance of polling in any given match can be identified.
A Star ⭐ Rating is used to show the confidence level of each three-vote prediction.
⭐ = Tough Game to Pick
⭐⭐ = A Decent Chance
⭐⭐⭐ = Should get the Three Votes
Here is the Brownlow Medal Predictor for Round 12 of the 2022 AFL Season.
Good luck picking a winner for any category this season, and always remember to Gamble Responsibly.

Note – The Cats got a fast start against the Bulldogs and led from start to finish, with a star forward standing out. Jeremy Cameron kicked 3 first-quarter goals and a total of 6 for the match.
Cameron was the most damaging player on the ground and proved a handful for Dogs defenders as all his marks were inside the forward fifty.
Mitch Duncan and Cam Guthrie had solid games for the Cats, whilst Tom Liberatore was the Bulldog’s best, but hard to go past Cameron for the maximum votes.
Adelaide vs West Coast
Adelaide 13.10 88 – West Coast 8.9 57
(Adelaide by 31 Points)
Vote Chances
Ben Keays – 29 Disposals (22 Effective and 16 Contested), 5 Clearances, 7 Inside 50s, 5 Score Involvements, 15 Ground Ball Gets, 21 Pressure Acts, 411 Metres Gained and 1 Goal Assist

33 Disposals (22 Effective and 17 Contested), 8 Clearances, 6 Inside 50s, 9 Score Involvements, 11 Ground Ball Gets, 9 Tackles (2 Tackles Inside 50), 30 Pressure Acts, 1 Goal Assist and 1 Goal
3 Votes (Adelaide) Taylor Walker (8) ⭐⭐
22 Disposals (14 Effective and 13 Contested), 8 Marks (5 Marks Inside 50 and 4 Contested), 10 Score Involvements, 6 Ground Ball Gets, 330 Metres Gained, 2 Goal Assists and 3 Goals
Note – The Crows beat the Eagles in Adelaide but were tested at times, and West Coast were more competitive than in previous weeks.
Crows forward Taylor Walker had a massive impact on the result up forward, marking the ball in dangerous positions, and helped set up several scoring chances.
Rory Laird continued his excellent form in the middle of the ground with a stack of the football and plenty of pressure on the opposition, whilst Ben Keays made another solid contribution in the middle for the Crows.
The Eagles were better in this match, with Luke Shuey and Andrew Gaff playing good games in the middle of the ground. Tom Barrass was solid on the back half, but it will be hard to beat Walker for the maximum votes.
Gold Coast vs North Melbourne
Gold Coast 15.19 109 – North Melbourne 7.5 47
(Gold Coast by 62 Points)
Vote Chances
Lachie Weller – 20 Disposals (18 Effective), 5 Intercept Possessions, 5 Marks (2 Intercept Marks), 7 Inside 50s, 6 Rebound 50s, 5 One Percenters, 4 Spoils and 802 Metres Gained

Note – The Suns made easy work of the Kangaroos, and Touk Miller stood out with a lot of footy and a willingness to attack. Miller racked up a massive 13 clearances in this clash and will be very hard to beat for the top votes.
Matt Rowell provided plenty of support and pressure in the middle of the ground and should poll votes in this match, whilst there are several contenders for the single vote as the Suns had many contributors.
Melbourne vs Sydney
Melbourne 9.7 61 – Sydney 10.13 73
(Sydney by 12 Points)
Vote Chances
Errol Gulden – 17 Disposals (12 Effective and 10 Contested), 7 Intercept Possessions, 8 Ground Ball Gets, 5 Tackles, 1 Goal Assist and 1 Goal

3 Votes (Melbourne) Max Gawn (10) ⭐⭐

Note – The Swans got the upset win against the Demons, but Demons ruckman Max Gawn was a clear best on the ground, despite the loss.
Gawn had 23 contested possessions and 6 contested marks in this clash and hit the scoreboard with 3 majors to be the favourite for the maximum votes.
The Swans won the match on the back of a solid team performance and applied a heap of pressure on the Dees. The two that led the way were Sam Reid, who was busy all night up forward, and Callum Mills led the Swans in disposals and tackles.
James Rowbottom and Luke Parker also had good games, as did Paddy McCartin down back, but Max Gawn will lead the charge for the maximum votes and played a fantastic match, despite the loss.
Hawthorn vs Collingwood
Hawthorn 10.8 68 – Collingwood 10.12 72
(Collingwood by 4 Points)
Vote Chances
Jai Newcombe – 23 Disposals (13 Contested), 6 Intercept Possessions, 8 Clearances, 5 Score Involvements, 11 Ground Ball Gets, 4 One Percenters, 12 Tackles, 35 Pressure Acts and 406 Metres Gained
Jack Crisp – 25 Disposals, 5 Marks (2 Intercept Marks), 7 Inside 50s, 9 Ground Ball Gets, 4 One Percenters, 5 Tackles (2 Tackles Inside 50), 27 Pressure Acts, 460 Metres Gained and 2 Goal Assists
Taylor Adams – 28 Disposals (14 Contested), 7 Clearances, 5 Inside 50s, 8 Ground Ball Gets, 3 One Percenters, 7 Tackles, 23 Pressure Acts and 518 Metres Gained
Projected Votes
1 Vote (Collingwood) Patrick Lipinski (4)

26 Disposals (15 Contested), 6 Intercept Possessions, 9 Marks (5 Intercept Marks and 2 Marks Inside 50), 6 Clearances, 8 Score Involvements, 6 Ground Ball Gets, 404 Metres Gained and 1 Goal
Note – The Pies pinched a close match against the Hawks in a challenging game to split the votes with several contributors.
Magpies ruckman Darcy Cameron won a lot of contested footy and took a stack of intercept marks to have a noticeable impact on the result.
The ball use and decision-making of first-year player Nick Daicos stood out at times, and he racked up a heap of the football, whilst Patrick Lipinski had an impact in the middle of the ground.
A tough match to split the votes, but Cameron had a clear impact in the ruck for the Magpies and might be the front runner for the top votes.
Fremantle vs Brisbane
Fremantle 15.9 99 – Brisbane 13.7 85
(Fremantle by 14 Points)
Vote Chances
Will Brodie – 25 Disposals (21 Effective and 16 Contested), 10 Clearances, 7 Score Involvements, 13 Ground Ball Gets, 3 One Percenters, 5 Tackles, 21 Pressure Acts and 1 Goal Assist

Note – The Dockers stood up in another massive test against a top side, and they got the win at home by a small margin.
Andrew Brayshaw continued his excellent season and was a clear best on the ground with heaps of the football and a stack of clearances.
Caleb Serong and Will Brodie were busy in the middle of the ground, whilst the pace of Dockers small forward Michael Frederick stood out, and he found himself with plenty of space and snagged 3 goals.
Zac Bailey stood up for the Lions and booted 4 goals, whilst Daniel Rich hit targets with his left foot for most of the day.
