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...

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

Davey

Jones

Garland

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
