Apologies to Grimes and Jamar who were both close to gaining some votes.

Also after watching the replay I have forgotten to put in Bail, but I will leave my votes as they are.

I find it interesting to see the comparison between how us armchair experts see the game and the professional coaches (who might put a premium on things like in mind 1%ers and playing the team role)

This is how Bailey and McKenna viewed the game...

Gold Coast v Melbourne

10 Brent Moloney (Melb)

5 Jack Grimes (Melb)

5 Mark Jamar (Melb)

Jack Grimes second best on ground. Very few hand him in their top 5 at all, though some gave him 1 vote.

Just shows that sometimes you need to dig a little deeper to see a players true worth.

Jack Grimes is going to be our future captain and an absolute star on the competition. Yes he is lacking a little confidence in his disposal at the moment, but for someone so young he is a credit to himself.

Sick of hearing unwarranted over-the-top criticism against some of our players, Grimes especially.

The most interesting part of this is the voting MUST have been:

Moloney - 5,5

Grimes - 3,2

Jamar - 2,3

Trengove - 4,0

Sylvia - 0,4

Davey - 1,0

Bail - 0,1

Which means 1 coach voted Trengove 4 (2nd BOG), the 2nd gave him zip.

And the 2nd coach gave 4 to Sylvia and the 1st gave him zip.

Go figure.

And Rivers. If they put a premium on 1%'s and team role, Rivers would have been best by a mile. Yet, I can count on one hand how many gave Rivers votes. Even goes unnoticed by the coaches in their votes.

Sometimes people can easily be persuaded by the kick and handballs columns.

I also find it interesting that you haven't given your votes prior to this sledge for all in sundry.

Who would have thought before the season started that Bail, Tapscott and Martin would be in positions 5, 6 and 7 on the Demonland ladder after four rounds. Good on 'em.

what I find inetersting is the list of players who have barely contributed, or at least been well below themselves, this year

Green

Davey

Jones

Garland

Petterd

Frawley

Grimes

Morton

McKenzie

Watts

Scully

it says to me that we have a whole other gear to click into

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
