1. Frawley - awe-inspiring; I'd like to see him take on Brown, having seen him take apart Riewoldt in the last game of 2009 before he was shifted. Best big defender we've had since a guy called Paul Prymke was cut down by injury - he was going to be great.

2. Junior - what an effort; anyone who said he's not in the best 22 should be eating their words.

3. Grimes - how many games has he played? He's as brilliant as anyone in the AFL with similar experience; he's probably the best of them. Next captain.

4. Bennell - pace, balance and can hold a mark overhead.

5. Jamar - AA tap ruckman; can take on anyone. But should have more help next weekend.

6. Davey - still not 100% if you ask me, but delivers superbly

Honourable mentions - Bail, Warnock, Trengove, Green and maybe Dunn and Bartram for players who have been run-down by many, including me.

I think Brad Green might beat him to that. They're both natural leaders, but Green has the experience and determination.

4 - Junior McDonald

3 - Jamie Bennell

2 - Lynden Dunn

1 - Jack Trengove

Sorry to Grimes and Bail.

Is this the first person not to give Frawley a nod?

6 - James Frawley (he is now one of our best players)

5 - Jack Grimes (didn't star all day but absolutely stood up when needed and showed that he is going to be a bloody outstanding player for us (he is already))

4 - James McDonald (that double tackle and smother sequence was worth four votes alone. Can't wait for this legend to celebrate his 250th later in the year)

3 - Jamie Bennell (he is the new Andrew McLeod. Will be one of our best players in two years)

2 - Brad Green (just a class act)

1 - Mark Jamar (used his physical presence superbly for us; carried the ruck all day and dominated)

And to Rohan Bail, gee what an unexpected find that is, certainly looks the part.

As someone who made the same mistake last week, I would recommend you have another look at the game if you can and see for yourself how absolutely amazing James Frawley was today.

6- Frawley (bloody brilliant, and shut down Burton who was killing us)

5- Junior (inspirational as always)

4- Grimes (great as always)

3- Jamar (continues to dominate)

2- Warnock (completely shut down Tippet)

1- Green

Bennell, Trengove and Bail very stiff.

This.

Honorable mentions to Joel Mac, Bail, Bate..

Great to see the improved defensive pressure in the F50, especially how hard it was for the Crows to clear it out of defense.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
