Really? Apologies for questioning a vote but I thought he was pretty dreadful today.

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

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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
