6. Brad Miller - Wasnt his best ever game but I applaud his never-say-die attitude and effort til the final siren.

5. Dunn - Good job on Cooney.

4. CJ - Excellent rebounding game. His game has come along way under DB's management.

3. Brad Green - Tried hard. Some good moments.

2. Cam Bruce - Decent game. Ran hard, should kick long more though.

1. Stefan Martin - Calm in defence.

Apologies to Simon Buckley who I thought tried to break the lines well. Wheatley was alright too.

 
 

6. Brad Green - our best

5. Cameron Bruce - our second best :lol:

4. Brad Miller - was good, looked really good in junk time

3. L. Dunn - well Dunn Sunn

2. Garland

1. Valenti

Not giving votes to Wheatley, too loose this week. Martin was OK but being beaten on the lead by Will Minson is a little embarrassing.

6. CJ - pinpoint passes, amongst a display of ordinary skill execution.

5. Bruce - great motor.

4. Buckley - showed flashes of skill and commitment

3. Miller - quality

2. Green - as usual

1. Martin - not many errors


Martin was OK but being beaten on the lead by Will Minson is a little embarrassing.

On two of those occasions there was nothing he could have done.

Geddy Lee, no CJ? I thought he was clearly best on. He won plenty of ball and also delivered it well.

6 - C Johnson

5 - C Bruce

4 - B Green

3 - B Miller

2 - S Martin

1 - L Dunn

6 - Garland (quickly becoming 'the General' of our defence. Beat Murphy and created plenty off HB)

5 - C.Johnson (plenty of the ball and generally used it ball well, as well as being good defensively)

4 - Buckley (showed lots of dash and ball-carrying ability, and an improved defensive workrate. Kick was also better today)

3 - Martin (shades of J.Rivers about this bloke, but in a bigger body. Courageous in the air. Beaten a couple of times by unstoppable disposal but he looks very promising)

2 - Bruce (got stacks of the ball but didnt use it too well on a lot of occassions. Havent seen the stats yet but wouldnt be surprised if he got over 35 touches. Needs to improve his handballing skills, but otherwise led from the front, and if not for errors, wouldve been BOG)

1 - Miller (got 3 goals in junk time, but it was just reward for his hard work in the previous 3 qtrs)

 

Anyone who doesn't have martin and garland in their top 6 didn't watch the same game as me.

I didnt have Garland. I thought he was OK without being outstanding. Murphy seemed to get alot of the ball.


Martin was OK but being beaten on the lead by Will Minson is a little embarrassing.

Not much he could do considering the quality of the delivery Minson got. Martin got the better of Minson on the lead, more often than not, and Minson got a couple of lucky goals.

6. CJ - Good skills under pressure.

5. Bruce - Lead from the front.

4. Green - Impacted the game well.

3. Dunn - Good job on Adam.

2. Martin - Valiant in defence.

1. Bate - 20 Disposals with 85% efficiency. Tried hard.

Apologies to Buckley, Garland.

6. Colin Garland - Kept the dangerous Murphy goaless and was strong

5. Cameron Bruce - Cant believe im applauding Bruce, but got alot mof ball but still turning over alot

4. Brad Green - Our most polished player

3. Lynden Dunn - Beat Cooney and had 7 tackels

2. Stefan Martin - Beat Minson despite nsome late goals and a very dubious free, looked good and finally mwe have found a defender with genuine size and agility. So much scope too

1. Simon Buckley - Runa nd carries and breaks the lines

Wooz, Wheats, CJ, Miller and Morton wernt far behind.

.

Anyone who doesn't have martin and garland in their top 6 didn't watch the same game as me.

Add Warnock to that as well.

The backline was the only part of the ground where we played consistently well for 4 quarters, and that's despite the collective age of our defenders being 14.

To keep the Dogs to under 100 points is excellent, especially at the Dome.

6 - Dunn (beat the 2008 brownlow medalist)

5 - CJ - gaining confidence with each game

4 - Buckley - his best game for the year

3 - Green - consistently in our best players

2 - Wheatley - our go to player and gives his all

1 - Bate - always presents

6 - Dunn (beat the 2008 brownlow medalist)

Didnt we play Geelong in Round 5. :rolleyes:

I agree with your vote for Bate too.


No we played them in round 3

6. Simon Buckley

5. Cameron Bruce

4. Matthew Warnock

3. Brad Miller

2. Matthew Whelan

1. Chris Johnson

6. Dunn.L...shut down their superstar

5. Martin.S...that was an amazing effort for a 2nd gamer

4. Johnson.C...showed a cool head under pressure.

3. Garland.C...forced Murphy either deep or wide all day

2. Bruce.C...great workrate, would have placed higher if disposal was better

1. Warnock.M...especially good first half when we were under siege.

Apologies to the Russian who I thought rucked very well today, Miller Bate & Green who worked hard all day, Buckley showed a bit and Wheel's for his exceptional tackling.

 

6: Martin S. An encouragement vote for a great effort by someone playing his second game (and no wonder Essendon wanted him).

5: Dunn L. I reckon he did a terrific job on Cooney - but I hope he becomes more than a very good tagger.

4: Valenti S. Because he has more football brains than a number of higher profile (and far better paid players) on our list.

3: Garland C. Because he shut down my favourite non MFC player.

2: Brucey. Shocking kicking but great effort all the same.

1: Johnson C. Well done - we may just keep you on our list if you keep playing like you have in recent weeks.

And sorry B. Green you were OK as well.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
