6 - Jones - Once again, gave his all all day. Quickly realising his potential: obviously loving Neeld's new world order.

5 - Green - Alluding to his best form. Although I do have reservations about his next year, since it'd only be a rookie spot, I'd have no qualms about keeping him on, especially given the dearth of senior players on our list.

4 - McDonald - One of the few highlights in the continuing lowlight that is 2012.

3 - Grimes - Slowly gaining confidence and form. Will definitely grow to be a massive figure of this club.

2 - Sylvia - Couldn't deny him votes, but would love to see Col have this kind of form against a decent team.

1 - Howe - Doing some good things, and is slowly lifting his work rate.

6. Jones - another great four quarter effort. Work ethic has always been outstanding, but now plays within his limitations (which are becoming fewer, btw).

5. Green - shades of Brad in his younger days. Fantastic attitude, despite the set-backs over the last couple of years.

4. Sylvia - Good game Col, including plenty of run and hard work. More of the same next week please.

3. Tapscott - best game for the year.

2. Grimes - Slowly working back to the Jack Grimes we all want to see.

1. Dunn - Much maligned, but was good today imo. We need more in the back half with his kicking skills

6. Sylvia (as others said, would be good to see this against best teams)

5. Jones (most consistent and glad we have another three years at least of this)

4. Grimes ( gives his all)

3. Green ( great delivery to him and whilst picky did not like his celebration after 4th goal but good to see some enjoyment)

2. Howe ( worth going just to see him)

1. T.McDonald. ( looks a defender and even his disposal is improving)

Apologies to Trengove, Joel MacDonald and Spencer

you are kidding regarding his disposal aren't you?

it was dead set shocking today

just as many crosses as there were ticks next to t.McDonald's name for me today

Agree with that assessment. Tom has loads of potential, but needs a fair bit of work on his disposal. Couldn't get him into my top 6 in an even team performance.

6- Green- Brilliant game, could be back into his 2010 form. Easily our most able forward target

5- Jones- Continued to dominate, also held Ablett out of the game in the second half at least partially

4- Tapscott- Best game of his career, really made an impact in all areas

3- Howe- Flew around as usual and got plenty of the ball, 6 contested marks!

2- Dunn- Best game he's played in defence, great disposal, long kicking and speed

1- MacDonald- Really improved after being dropped regularly, he's starting to be that great medium defender we need

Grimes, Sylvia, Moloney and Garland were also worth mentioning, as was Spencer who I think is improving and is looking less clumsy

This is definitely a first for us. Nathan Jones has passed the double century before anyone else has scored a ton. That's Don Bradmanlike!

On Jack Grimes- first quarter - how ohh how can backing back into a player with eyes firmly on the ball and copping knees in the back in an unrealistic attempt to mark be deemed a push against Grimes by Schmidt. Sooooo clueless.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    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.

    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
