Since Round 8 Luke Parker has been on fire and is rapidly climbing up the Brownlow ladder.

We currently have him in the top 10 and only 3-4 votes off the leader. To support Parker’s Brownlow case ($251 to win)…

- Parker the last two years played as a mid-forward, but as of Round 8 Parker’s role changed moving into a full-time midfield role, spending 95% of his time on the pill. Compare this to 72% midfield time in rounds 1-7. Parker has not had fewer than 28 disposals since this move, averaging 30 possessions, 6 clearances and 6 tackles over the last seven games.

- During this period, we have Parker potentially polling in all 7 games with three potential 3-vote games.

- Since Parker moved into the midfield full-time in Round 8, the Swans have won 5 of the last 7 games. Looking at their upcoming fixture, they have an extremely friendly run with Essendon, St Kilda, Melbourne, Freo and Carlton.

- Parker’s 2019 numbers are near identical to his 2016 year, averaging just under 27 possessions. In 2016, Parker finished second in the Brownlow with 26 votes, averaging 1.18 Brownlow votes per game. He’s a proven poller across his career, polling 9 or more votes each year since 2014 – only one of six players to do so in the competition.

Take the value now and cash out a nice little return towards the end of the season when he comes in, or ride it depending on what the next 8 games have in store!
