1. The umpires, for being brave enough to stay out there despite being a total embarrassment to the notions of consistency and logic.

I don't get how you can give Jones 6 votes when he continuously turned it over and cost us dearly. Plus his tackling sucks.

6- Martin

5- Frawley (the most perfect kicking game I've seen in a while)

4- Davey

3- Jetta (underrated for his hardness)

2- Jurrah

1- Maric

At one stage Jones got the ball at a clearance in the centre and had the pack to his left and clear air to his right; now being a right footer you would expect him to head off and bang the ball in to the 50mtr arc, but not our Nathan he just turned back in to the pack and was collared.

How many times will he continue to do this, when will the coach says enough is enough. He seems to think he's playing U18's where he was probably the toughest kid on the park and could break any tackle. Well guess what Nathan; you're not and you can't.

6 - Frawley: back to his best.

5 - Sylvia: would be close to AA if he had a bit more support. Playing really well IMO.

4 - Newton: Unbelievable first quarter. Average after that but tried hard.

3 - Martin: beaten, but couldn't have given much more than what he did. Encouraging.

2 - Watts: decision making is first class, what position will he end up though?

1 - Warnock: "Encouragement Award". i.e. not a convincing performance, but was solid enough.

I like Matty Warnock and he gives his all but he simply just isn't up to it. I have never seen a player panic so much when put under pressure and a couple of his disposals yesterday were so bad I reckon I would have done better. With him and Joel Mac we have two of the biggest "panickers" in the AFL.

Why is it that Melbourne players never seem to take the first option coming out of defence and continually hold up the ball until there are no options left or they are caught in possesson?

Maybe the backline coach?

6 - Martin (had a crack, thought some of his follow up work around the clearances was great)

5 - Frawley (took them on, set up some good plays)

4 - Sylvia (was the link man on a number of occasions)

3 - Maric (kicked 3 good crumbing goals, something no one else could do)

2 - Warnock (for his job on Petrie)

1 - Watts (got into good positions)

6: Frawley, At least he will give us something worth watching this season, not unlike Robbie F did for over a decade.

4: Sylvia

3: Watts

2: Warnock

1: Newton

I also liked the way Newton played, he tried and tried against massive odds!

I know I'm late, but here goes anyway:

6. Frawley

5. Martin (even though his opponent was possibly BOG)

4. Sylvia

3. Gysberts

2. Davey

1. Watts

It's interesting reading the divergent views on this thread and the Ins and Outs threads, particularly with Jetta and Gysberts. Not much divergence on views about Dunn, though. Should have a line put through his name for the rest of the year.

I don't get the Martin worship. I thought he put up a good effort and was one of the few players who put in a second effort, but how many times did he ignore any option and bomb it to a) nowhere or B) the opposition

Edit - I dont know how to get rid of the demon with the [censored] - it's supposed to be b as in a or b.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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
