Excellent response RR.

I guess you need some some variety and surprise in the Bluey. Having said that if our 4 most talented players- Sylvia, Davey, Green and Jurrah all play 20 plus games, then we'll likely win 11 + games.

That means another 5 games from Col and 12 games from Jurrah will give 3 more wins then I will buy that!

However it might require something more.

    this years favorite for b&f is davey. hands down.

    you have to base it on a player who could walk into any team in the league. Jamar and Frawley could do this but davey has been a consistent performer for so long now. rarely plays a bad game. Plus when melb has been getting flogged he has always put in a strong performance.

    davey is vice captain. this is proof he is more than just a good player!

    slyvia, grimes, etc...all have massive potential. and could win the b&f...but davey deserves to be favorite.

    IMO, it'd be difficult to argue that 5 more games from Col and 12 more from LJ wouldn't have produced 3 more wins for the team overall.

    1. Sylvia if he stays fit and plays all h&a games will be almost impossible to beat I think

    2. Green, can't see him going backwards and will go back to back if Sylvia has any setbacks

    3. Garland is the real smokey IMO, was sensational last season. A full pre season this year and like Sylvia if he can play out the season without injury could make the aa list.

    Apologies to: James frawley, Tom scully, mark jamar, jack grimmes and jack trengove.

    1. Sylvia - easily if he plays all 22 games.

    2. Green - so consistent.

    3. Scully - will be a prolific possession gatherer.

    Apology - Davey (could pip either of Scully or Green).

    Unlucky - Frawley (recovery period so will miss games and needs time to work back into things).

    Disagree.

    It seems like when Davey gets tagged and only racks up 5-10 touches, we get flogged. It shows his value to the team, but we need him to shrug the tag and be consistent.

    He'll win the Bluey the year he does that.

    Grimes - Will show again he is our most consistent player

    Sylvia - Will get most of the ball in the middle

    Green - Never far away from the action, inspirational leader

    If Grimes doesn't get injured he will walk in the B&F.

    Grimes, Sylvia, Davey in any order.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
