Forgot about Martin. Anthony played well and won the duel, but Martin deserves an honorable mention. Took some good marks under extreme pressure and looks like he is using to use his size more in contests. A promising prospect.

What a stupid, completely UNRELIABLE and totally INACCURATE system! As I understand it each week just 3 posters votes are selected at RANDOM ( we hope it really is) and that is how the leader board is decided. So player A could receive 6 votes from 6 different posters and not be randomly selected thus receiving zero votes. A real cowboy arrangement. Surely a much more accurate and fair system would be to put a time limit on voting, say 6 hours after the game and count ALL THOSE who have bothered to vote in that period. No wonder last year's B&F didn't match up with DEMONLAND voting.

Jeeze have a cry bobby, it's all a bit of fun. No need to get so worked up a bout it. Personally, i think that leaderboard is pretty spot on after our first two games.

I'm not crying mate! If it's only for fun why have it then? Do you not think my suggestion would be fairer and more accurate?

Didn't see SYLVIA'S name there either. Maybe HE ISN"T GOOD ENOUGH! Didn't kick the 7 goals you predicted either. Maybe you meant 7 goals for the season! Have a look at our best players on the MFC website. You may be enlightened!

Sylvia was junk.

I am prepared to admit that.

I always call it fairly.

Bobby, I take a bit of offense with what your suggesting here. What I did in fact was I wrote the names of those who put in their selections (actually it was 6 hours after the game) eliminated those whose votes were accepted lat week and drew out the names Titan Uranus, Morton2Watts and CarnDees (totally at random). I used their votes and came up with the following totals for the game:

17 Davey

15 Warnock

9 Green

8 Morton

6 Jones

5 Moloney

2 Rivers

1 Miller

Their numbers were then multiplied by the team's percentage of the day to provide the votes for the game. Looking at the votes of the experts from the media, these don't appear too far off to me. Our own Oracle went with:

Davey Warnock Bruce Green Miller Jones Morton

Only Cameron Bruce missed out there although he did get named as playing well (in the first half at least) in the Oracle's article.

The only time I dismiss anybody's votes is when I omit the voters who have had votes accepted in the past four rounds (please keep putting yours in anyway folks), if they're completely stupid or they're not done on a 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 basis. It takes time to compile the votes and collate them when you work with three sets of votes. It would take a lot more time if I used all 20 or more ... and it was a Saturday night after a 9 goal loss. There's only so much abuse one can take in these circumstances and adding up votes for an hour or so and then checking and making sure you got it right is a bit of a stretch. We don't have the resources of Champion Data here.

Anyway, I don't think you've made your point and our system is about as random as you can get in a poll based on the opinions of committed Demon fans.

BTW last year's winner was Brad Green. What was wrong with his year?

Perhaps the club should employ our system when deciding the 'Bluey'?

I did not think he broke too many. Many of his possessions were easy uncontested dish offs and too many of his disposal were short passes not penetrating the oppositions lines. I dont think from the wieght of possessions really hurt the opposition. He does show that he has class I wish he could do more with the ball.

I concur.

I was actually disappointed in this part of his game and didn't think it really added much value.

DEMONLAND

Thanks for your reply. I still think there is a real chance of a player polling well by MANY POSTERS and not even registering one vote with the crazy RANDOM system. Surely a person of your intelligence can see that the present method is flawed and not nearly accurate enough. Voting for a best player having a RAFFLE system is not on. Bruce for example has received votes from DIFFERENT posters over 2 rounds and hasn't even scored yet. He was last year's MFC B&F if you remember. Take the LUCK factor out of your SYSTEM.

I suppose Demonland could just make up the votes himself...but that would kind of defeat the purpose wouldn't it?

Well done. The votes were spot on.

The Demonland Player of the Year has more has more credibility then the Bluey.

After all, look who won the respective awards last year.

So did you hear who the coaches gave votes for in this game as announced on SEN today provided by the coaches

from memory bruce 4 miller 3 davey 2 now tell me thats not creditable

rose coloured glasses you always look through

I'm not a Bruce defender or basher, but for him not to feature in our votes last weekend was a bit poor. 30 possessions suggests that you're trying your guts out and should at least warrant 1 or 2 votes.

    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
