Disappointing game overall - very little run and not the pressure we have seen them apply over the last month. Nevertheless, here are my votes:

6: Bruce (He was one of the few who attacked the ball and attempted to run out of defence)

5: Bartram (would have been the best but I was annoyed by him letting Harvey run around him and kick a goal)

4: Dunn (just needs to be more consistent within a game)

3: Grimes (for his 2nd half)

2: Scully (great dash and commitment)

1: Green (was a target but needed to be moved on the ball)

Very disappointed in Joel MacDonald, Stefan Martin, Jared Rivers, Colin Sylvia

6. Grimes (only player to give them run out of an overly tall backline)

5. Green (presented well and helped get them back in the game up forward)

4. Jamar (battled well against one of the 3 best ruckmen in the comp and probably took the points, just!)

3. Scully (after the richmond game his best for the red and blue)

2. Davey (very good in patches, didn't do enough however)

1. Bennell (gave them a lot of run, impressive outing)

Please explain.

I thought he was just OK. Nothing very special, and needs to overcome his habit of doing nothing in the first half.

He was very good in the third quarter when Melbourne got a run on.

I didn't think he was that good. And playing one quarter out of four isn't good enough.

Needs to lift to keep his spot over Wonaeamirri, Jetta and Maric. As well as Cheney, Strauss, McNamara, Bail, McKenzie, and the upcoming return of Morton and Jurrah.

There's no reason to think Jetta is ahead of Bennell, Maric doesn't seem too likely to come in and Aussie will need to build a lot of fitness up before he'll be promoted.

Cheney, Strauss, Bail, Mckenzie and Jurrah all play different positions to Bennell.

Jetta played better last year as a forward than Bennell has over the last few weeks (on average).

Aussie will take Bennell's spot in a canter if Bennell doesn't improve.

I think it will be hard to justify keeping Bennell in the side when those other players return from injury (the later ones, not McKenzie and Bail) or get in decent form. Unless Bennell improves. Which is the point of my first post I guess. He's not giving enough over 4 quarters atm.

Please tell me you're joking

    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.

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
