I'm not 100% sure how the voting system works, however i think it favors a player that plays all games.

And based on the Demonland votes, Davey has it in the bag!

Not necessarily, Moloney has recently made a challenge, see last round.

BTW, McLean has played nearly every game this year but will he win it by a mile this year? Oh that right he has been injured.

Throw some more bait on the hook, cast the rod again, you will get another bite or two RR.

I'm not 100% sure how the voting system works, however i think it favors a player that plays all games.

From Oct 2008

"The Truscott Medal is decided by votes from each member of the match committee -- senior coach Dean Bailey and assistants Paul Williams, Mark Williams, Josh Mahoney and Sean Wellman.

After each round, the match committee rated the best players with a score out of four. There is no limit to the number of players who can receive votes, and the maximum amount of votes a player can receive in a round is 20."

Given that Bruce won last year with 75 votes from 22 games it's a pretty safe bet that a final step was missed in the quote above. The maximum (20) per player per game is divided by the number of judges, 5. as 75/22 = 3.4 / 4 per game.

Bit too deep and philosophical for me H, I'll stick to the thread.

Either someone hacked into my account and posted under my alias, or I was extremely [censored] when I got home last night from a junior footy function/dinner, as I have no recollection of having made that post - or what it means.

Morton played really well in the first 10 or so games, and while has drifted slightly as late, I think will be top 10.

But it's between Moloney and Davey, no question.

Nothing like leaving out one of the MAIN CONTENDERS in the poll. Like an East Timor 'election'. Guess it gives YM the HOLLOW satisfaction that Cam did not poll one vote in his little communist style poll. You could be outraged yet again YM when Brucey makes it back to back wins.

Bobby,

I did have Bruce in the poll at the start.

But he got 3 early votes which was obviously just people trying to annoy me, so I had no choice but to delete him.

Who cares ?

:D

Actually you are being quite unfair. Bruce has been rewarded for his consistency and durability. I think Bruce will give it a shake again this year.

Yup. Not sure he'll win it... depends on how Davey and Moloney's last half-dozen rounds go.

Bobby,

Trying to annoy you? Or offering their honest opinion? You're a clown.

I'd put Bruce at about 2nd or 3rd for my own opinion, however the way the footy department feels about him,I'd put him in first. Can't vote in this mickey-mouse, Y_M garbage until Bruce's name is put back in.

This poll can not be taken seriously until Cameron Bruce's name is added to it

When I had my first look at the 'poll' results yesterday, I was very surprised to read the words 'You have already voted in this poll'. This was news to me and I assure you I hadn't. More tricks by YM?

Yeah Bobby, I magically fixed the poll so you couldn't vote.

You twit. :lol:

You are pretty clever with computers YM. Anything is possible by you. eg. Your automatic footnote whenever 'Mono' makes a post. I honestly did not vote but still got the message that I had. Did this happen to others?

Cameron Bruce just to [censored] off YM.

As for the poll, I voted Moloney who deserves it the most.

Perhaps YM drew up the poll list???? :lol:

Did you click view results before you voted?

What footnote is that?

I did click view results but never intended to vote. The footnote comes at the bottom of all of Mono's posts signed by YM. It says something like 'You know nothing about football, Bruce lover' It even popped up when YM was banned from the site. I'm sure you have seen it.

If you click "view results" in brackets it automatically nulls your vote (as in, you can't see the results then try and give your response).

I'm pretty sure that's Mono's signature, designed to have a go at YM for something he said to Mono.

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
