*EDIT* DAMN! Missed by 1 Minute! What happened to the 6 hour rule?

Huh? Is there a cut off time for whose votes count?

    4:Grimes

    3:Frawley

    2:Maric

    1: Watts (officially the first person on demonland to give Watts a vote)

    This is surely a joke, right? Cheney wasn't in our top 6 (but he wasn't terrible either). Maric played shockingly, and really should be dropped. I can't see any justification for giving him votes. And there's no way Watts was in our top 6.

    FWIW:

    6 - Sylvia

    5 - Grimes

    4 - Warnock

    3 - Jamar

    2 - Bate

    1 - Davey

    Grimes for a decent job on Didak.

    And the Dees fans who sat through that [censored].

    I don't think i could give votes for this game, it would be too hard finding more than just one or two. Thankfully voting is closed so i won't. All i can say is:

    Sylvia BOG by a MILLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.. Not one single player showed as much guts and intensity as Sylvia did, for 4 consistent quarters.

    Like a couple of others, i agree that Cheney was one of our best, ditto Grimes, despite what their opponents did. The kids definitely showed enough g&d, as well as glimpses of class and poise, to make me excited about their futures. They got taught some very important lessons by some very good players today and will be better for it.

    Jamar was pretty good as our rucks dominated the hitouts, yet our mids couldn't get near it. 31 hitouts looks nice on paper, but how many of them actually helped us get the clearance? He's much improved and is moving better than i've ever seen, but Josh Fraser did get a lot of the ball and use it to advatange on most occasions. If i had to give votes i'd give him just 2 or 1.

    Struggle to find anyone else vote worthy really. All of Moloney, McLean, Bruce, Jones were servicable but beaten by their direct opponents in the midfield and the latter 2 in particular displayed their glaring disposal issues. None of the forwards deserved a vote really, and the backs were also well beaten. Definitely a tough week to find positives...

    Well I didn't see the whole game. I left 5 minutes early so I could both get out of the car park before the rush and (B) avoid the mad scum supporters who attacked Nathan Jones' dad last time.

    However I was very impressed by our no. 12 and a couple of others - so:

    6 Sylvia

    5 Moloney

    4 Grimes (the Real future of the MFC)

    then I suppose

    3 Jamar

    2 Davey

    1 Warnock

    ...

    reckon you could post what the weeks contributions are as well as the leader board, so we can see who got the actual votes each week?

    6 - Sylvia

    5 - Bruce

    4 - Jones

    The rest? Too hard for me to separate from a maize of disappointing performances.

    Just got back from Melbourne, so couldn't post selections earlier.

    A comparison: -

    Sylvia v Davey

    Just did a quick calculation. Prior to D'lands update, by my calculations there were 14 (completed) x 6 votes for Sylvia. 84 votes.

    Aaron Davey was voted for 6 times out of those 14 voters. (4,3,1,1,2,2 = 13 votes).

    From the Round 10 update:

    C.Sylvia went up by 8.571 points

    A.Davey went up by 2.381 points

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
