Demonland Player of the Year


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Nice numbering system :)

3> Jamar - herculean effort. I've never been resentful of Jolly leaving, but I can't help but smile seeing Jamar pants him twice in one year.

2.5> Moloney - I had great difficulty splitting these two. Massive effort.

2> Garland - Welcome back. Did absolutely everything right today. What a gem.

1.5> Morton - How many times did he get free by half a paddock? Amazing stuff. Not a big accumulator of the ball, but extremely damaging when he gets it.

1> Davey

0.5> Scully

Lots of others considered. I found the top 4 easy to pick, and could've thrown a blanket over another 10 for the next two.

Interesting that you gave Scully votes, since you watched the game on TV (I'm assuming?), because when you're at the ground it's very hard to appreciate the sort of work that this kid does in the packs.

3 - Moloney. he was everywhere. 38 possesions - his best game ever for the club. we were looking at a thrashing and he willed us back into the game. Proud of him.

2.5 - the big Russian - took on 2 opponents and beat them both without support.

2. Davey - 28 possessions but missed at least 4 targets coming out of the backline. He DOES get the hard ball.

1.5 - Garland - 24 possessions -and took the initiative to kick a goal in the second.

1. Jones. tireless - always working so hard at the coalface.

.5 Frawley - a rock in defence and good to see him drift down into the forward line.

Morton did well as an outside player. Hopefully next year he can put on some beef and start winning contested possessions.

Given it was a draw we took half votes from 6 people and had no weighting. This meant we had the same number aggregate number of votes as would be expected.

The Russian is motoring on and grabbed a good lead in Junior's absence:

89.112 Mark Jamar

73.092 Brent Moloney

70.951 James McDonald

65.308 James Frawley

61.653 Jack Grimes

This is my first time posting on this site.Spent the last few years reading the comments . Whilst sometimes I shake my head at some opinions what is obvious to me is the level of commitment and feeling for the MFC --take a bow posters.

Todays game was a mixture mostly good some a work in progress and some Arrgg.

Watching on TV my votes (not sure of the amount ??)

beamer

jamar

davey

morton

dunn

frawley

I prefer the 6 to 1...but ok:

3 - Jamar - Superb by the big Russian, is getting better as the season goes on and his efforts in last qtrs against Port and now the pies have been inspiring, he gets the nod from me for the interview on ten after the game, he was gutted and blamed himself for Jolly getting the mark that went on to Lockyer. He was gutted and showed how much these boys want it.

2.5 - Davey - hard to split Flash & Beamer.. both super in the last as we pushed for the 4 points. Flash gets my 5 simply for his courage in taking players on and finishing it off with his execution by foot

2.0 - Moloney - I, like so many always seem to want to skip a generation and look for the next captains from the young brigade, Beamer - you have just been throwing up the hand so high this last 12-18 mths - a captains effort yesterday!

1.5 - Garland - Super, super game from Col. It astounds me that people wanted him to have a spell, this guy just needed some game time after 12 mths out of it and he and Chip will be the premier defenders in the comp. Stop the forward line calls, Col is a great defender.

1.0 - Morton - he is THE new AFL players isnt he? Can make some bad decisions at times but this drop away, I wish he would use his height and size a little more in marking contests but this can come in time too. A great game by Cal and another stepping stone

0.5 - Dunn - hard to split Bartram or Dunn, both player defensive roles even though Dunn up forward, I give it to Dunn as he kept Shaw quiet and Davis has been in pretty average form anyway, not much of a point but enough for me!

Apologies to Chip and the entire backline.....gee these guys are good. Jones, Scully, Jetta. Green would've got votes had he finished off his work and won us the game.

................(I'm not giving Moloney top votes because without Jamar, Moloney would struggle to win so much of the ball)

Agree ... they are developing a great understanding. First time I can recall an on-ball working relationship like this at MFC for a very long time!

I'm not into Supercoach, but I was keen to know at least what Jamar & Beamer scored. Couldn't see anything in the papers today. Can anyone give us the scores from yesterday for say our top 6 Supercoach players?

6 Moloney

5 Jamar

4 Davey

3 Morton

2 Garland

1 Bartram

Just watched the game, the first 5-10 minutes cost melbourne the game. Great games for the young kids. Jack Watts was poor for me, a few poor decisions, they will soon disappear from his game with more games under him.

    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
