I agree with DB.

My top 3 for Bluey:

1st - Arron Davey: A sensational year. Has put his hand up to take over from Junior in 2011.

2nd - Brad Green: Was set to top Davey until a late season injury. Is super skilled and super tuff, I find his courage inspirational. Should be our next Captain.

3rd - Brett Moloney: A solid year. Inspirational at times, played all but one for the season and should poll well in the Bluey.

Aaron would have to be odds on especially as the onle player to play all 22 games this year :D

Brad Green has missed several games through injury so thie will hurt his chances.

Stronger performances in 2009 have been by Beamer, Bate, Rivers, Warnock Col Sylvia, Chip

FMD Rumplestiltskin, I like Brad Green but he's only played 12 games.

It is amazing. Green is an automatic vote catcher for fans even when he isn't playing.

Bests, can't be bothered thinking, put Green in.

1. Davey

2. Moloney

3. Frawley

Green will be lucky to make top 10 this year IMO. Not knocking him or anything, i love the guy, but he hasn't played near enough footy to poll well.

My top 10:

1. Davey

2. Moloney

3. Bruce

4. Bate

5. Sylvia

6. Warnock

7. Morton

8. Frawley

9. Grimes (would be much higher if he played more)

10. Rivers / Petterd / McDonald / Jones

Off the top of my head

Best first year player.

Best club man.

Also i think they made an award in memory of Troy Broadbridge?

The Troy Broadbridge award was for the best MFC player in Sandy's b&f i think, so not sure whether that award will cross over into the Casey camp.

Best First Year player - Jamie Bennell

Best Clubman - Brent Moloney or Aaron Davey

Best clubman is almost impossible to speculate on IMO as it's more in house.

Frawley must be in the top 5. Joined by Davey winning, hopefully Green, Moloney and Bate/Sylvia

I honestly don't understand these claims that Mclean has had a poor season.

Doggo, you used stats to say Sylvia has had a very good year - 22.1 touches per match.

Mclean has averaged 21.9

Just the way i've seen him this year. Don't expect everyone to see it how i have, but that's just my call.

It's all about impact HG. McLean is averagaing 0.2 stats less per game, but his impact has been well short of Colin's IMO.

I struggle to remember a game this year where he has been the standout performer on the ground.

    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

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
