It concerns me to see Miller's game rated below Green's game by Demonland frontrunners. Miller's performance was all contested stuff - one on one - gutsy, committed, explosive. Green is a great quarterback-style loose man in the back line and he is playing really well. Miller was the match-winner.

Personally I found Green and Miller's games pretty hard to split, as there's no doubting they were both pure class yesterday. I wouldn't argue against giving either of them the 6.

It was great watching that last Miller mark on TV. Green actually had as much claim on it as Miller did and was NOT going to let go, until he realised it was a teammate he was fighting with. It was a very fitting end that our two best players on the day battled to take the mark that won the match. Great stuff.

I'd love to see some fitness stats and GPS data on Green. He seems to cover more ground and run more than anyone in the team. I know he was loose in defence for much of yesterday, but to be able to run down the ground with Wona at the death shows he must have a really good tank.

Bruce never seems to get as much credit for running all day either.

Green wasn't loose all day. Leigh Matthews said he tried a few players to match-up on him but they couldn't get near Greeny.

Black had 23 touches

Which is just under 2/3's of what he managed against us in Round 6

Dunn had 17 touches and laid 8 tackles... I reckon DB would be pretty happy with that outcome.

i thought he had a stinker today... seemed to be rushed all the time, which resulted in bad decisions with the ball... got enough of it, but needs to use it better... don't drop him though, he'll learn and a couple of weeks up will do him good...

Valenti's disposal was hit and miss, but he is such a smart player and he instinctively knows where the ball is. I thought he did some terrific work in the middle, got first hands on the ball 4 times plus a couple of clearances and gathered 19 possessions with just 70% TOG.

It was encouraging just to see him find the pill over and over again (in his THIRD match) and even though some of his kicks were ordinary, his decision making was good. I like smart players, IMO understanding the play can make up for a multitude of sins.

OK, I didn't mean loose as in "unopposed", I meant loose as in "extra". The fact that Matthews tried to match him up and Green ran off his man countless times is just added evidence to him having a great tank.

Again I;m a little late t the party but for me......

6. Brad Green

(only just, if at all behind) 5. Brad Miller

4. Colin Sylvia

3. Chris Johnson

2. Matthew Whelan

1. any number of players but I will go with Cameron Bruce

Apologies to Brock McLean, Mark Jamar, Paul Wheatley, Lynden Dunn, Matthew Bate, Paul Johnson and our entire defensive unit who I thought were not too bad, especially considering the collective scoring power and size of the opposition forwards.

No love for Paul Wheatley chook?

6: Brad Green

5: Chris Johnson

4: Brad Miller

3: Lynden Dunn (did simon black touch it)

2: Colin Sylvia

miller had the claim to it, he was the first to touch it and he was the man in front. if miller lost hold of it and green brought it down it should have been play on imo.

same as the mark to a brisbane player up the other end should defs have been play on, the man in front had it first, it should have been called touched.

Not to be an @sshole or anything, but how is Brad Green not winning this? He has been superb all year and in AA contention IMO. He has been good every game and leading from the front with his courageous marks and directing the play from HB. Would be happy with him as our next captain actually!

The same reason that Sylvia is coming 11th.

The people that vote dont have a clue.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
