I hope your joking. He was nothing short of horrendous.

Bit harsh...he was ok against Goddard, a fair assignment with which to prove yourself in first game of the year! Not sure he was worth 5 votes....Trengove & Chip clearly best.

4 Bruce

3 Dunn

2 Cheney

1 Watts

Apologies: Macdonald, Green, Jones, Beamer, Chip, Garland

I just like the fact that they gave a damn, showed spirit and fought (at least or 3 quarters). Cheney alone showed more hardness than we saw for the whole game last week.

worse was Dunn's goal which he dribbled through from 40m. the choice of kick was absolute brain fade. he's just lucky it went through. unforgiveable. if someone doesn't give him a whack around the ears for that low percentage effort, we're as good as stuffed.

someone can tell him to shave that piece of **** of his upper lip too. it's a disgrace.

my votes:

6 - trengove

5 - mckenzie

4 - bruce

3 - jamar

2 - chip frawley

1 - bennell

I agree with your assessment the most GtW.

Yep, that was stupid as well. Low percentage rubbish kicks that I don't want people like Dunn, who can barely slot them from 9m directly in front taking. If you're Jurrah or Bennell, you can get away with it, if you're Dunn, then no.

Also agreed with Nasher that his brain does not cope under pressure. He makes terrible decisions, which is why he seems a lot better up forward where decision making isn't as crucial or necessary (not hard to decide between "go for goal" or "pass it on").

I know he played OK footy this season, but he has so many limitations, and for someone who doesn't fulfill a really vital role, that is not good. Bartram for example has limitations, but he does a very good job defensively and is required to play on small forwards, so you forgive some of his downfalls. But when you are a bit player with no real position, you need to have a lot of tricks up your sleeve to justify weekly selection.

Well done to Cheney on his 2010 Season debut also. Was competitive and will hold his spot one would think.

Goddard had 31 possessions and top votes in The Age FOTY. I'd hate to think what would have happened if Cheney wasn't 'competitive'.

When does Goddard NOT have 31 possessions?? :P

And, for the record, Cheney is a backman. Goddard was up forward for most of the match. How many goals did Goddard kick? Just the one...!

Cheney has that ability to not let many goals be kicked on him. He is a great spoil of the footy. He is a tough nugget and I loved his aggression. He won't find many more opponents tougher than Goddard.

He would have learnt lots from the game.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
