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 found it quite easy to nominate the first four, but much harder for the last two. And what was it with all the fumbling from Gysberts, Garland and at times Moloney?

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)

4 Jack Trengove (Melb)

4 Colin Sylvia (Melb)

1 Aaron Davey (Melb)

1 Rohan Bail (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

  • 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.

    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?
