Your Top 5 Demons Players of All Time

Barassi left before I was born, so I won't include players I never saw.  From what I've heard it would be hard to go past Stuart Spencer, Barassi, and Mueller from year's gone by.

My 5 favourite players:

Flower, Gawn, Oliver, Petracca, Viney (experienced the worst of it)

My weighting is very much based on premiership players.  I never thought I'd see one, so these guys are my favourite.  It's a very easy decision for me over non premiership players.  But if you saw Robbie you couldn't leave him out.

The 5 best Melbourne players I've seen:

Flower, Gawn, Oliver, Petracca, May (not in order)

It's some feat for a non-premiership player to be included, but if you saw Robbie...

    Quite possible we have 3 of the all time great 5 currently playing.

    In which case, we should win more than one Premiership with this group. It would be a waste of a golden opportunity.

    Not only might we have 3 out of the top 5, there are a few other really good players to add to that list, such as May, Brayshaw and Pickett (and others).

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
