Thought that Sylvia was important in getting us back in it in the 3rd.

Yes, Sylvia was great in the 3rd.

By the way Id like to change my votes and give Garland a 7. 6 just isnt enough.

I'm deducting votes from the idiot Melbourne supporter who started hurling fairly nasty abuse at an older Melbourne supporter whilst sipping on his can of Jim Beam and standing in the 'no standing' area in the last quarter.

I only saw the last quarter, so I can't comment on the whole game but there was one passage of play in the last with Sylvia that really worried me.

McLean had the ball in the back pocket/flank kick it up to someone (can't remember who) then got the ball again and kept running eventually until there was a ball up at around Melbourne's CHF.

That whole time, while Brock was running his guts out you could see Sylvia (this in on TV mind you) just jogging up following the ball but not getting in to lend a hand. It was lazy pure and simple.

Like I said, he may have starred for the rest of the game but that really worried me.

He didn't star by any stretch. Was useful in our comeback, but really didn't have an influence on the game. Needs to really stamp himself in this second half of the year. Like I said, he was very good in that third qtr - but he needs to do it every week. Should look at Brock for an example.

My votes:

6 - McLean

5 - Garland

4 - Bruce

3 - Green

2 - Miller

1 - Wheatley

Y_M, I'm happy that you are not quite as deranged as I thought. Takes guts to write that up there. Kudos.

on another note, im not sure about wheatley...he got a lot of it, but didnt really use it. i thought pj and cj were pretty good.

brock gets a lot of it, but his opponent was tuck who i thought was arguably best on today...

Wonder if Richmond supporters think that Tuck was good, except he let McLean run wild...?

At the end of the day McLean is not a tagger, and his main role is not to stop his direct opponent. Of course he has to chase and man-up when the ball is going the other way (which he does, and he lays as many tackles as anyone), but if you play him on a damaging player, expect both players to get the ball equally.

It's a case of, would you rather the opposition tag McLean out of the game, or would you rather let McLean and his direct opponent do as they please?

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
