1. green - Farewell champ.

What game were you watching?! Spencer was possibly the worst on the ground! He was totally uncompetitive in the ruck and a hack around the ground. Sam Jacobs pulverised him all day.

I'm being mean here, but that's the worst decision to award votes I've ever seen on this website.

Being at the game and not watching on TV might result in differing opinions but my votes would be:

6- Sylvia- Clearly the best in a team getting smashed

5- Jones- Is an absolute workhorse

4- Howe- the only marking target we had all day

3- Sellar- given he played a bit of everywhere i thought he performed most roles well but for one horrible shot at goal

2- Blease- the only bloke who looks remotely dangerous in the forward line

1- Tapscott- a lot of hard efforts and strong marks today

And the 5 votes from red and blue forever were a typo.

Was almost considering just giving Green 21 votes and letting the farce end, however, upon reflection....

6. Sylvia - stood up against a good team for a change.

5. Jones - absolute hard nut. Just doesn't give up.

4. Sellar - would've had the 6 if he could kick.

3. Howe - give this man a preseason and he could be anything, providing he hasn't killed himself flying to take a grab.

2. McKenzie - niggler. Love the way he goes about it.

1. Bail - just for starting a few fights.

6. Sylvia - NOW get out his back, Col is vital for 2013 and beyond.

5. Jones - my 6-yr old son loves Jonesy grunt and desire for the footy.

4. Sellar - a good #53 draft pick. Versatile as a key fwd or back

3. Howe - puts a smile on my face. Great mark and agile. A big pres season and watch out.

2. Grimes - got better over the last few weeks. Now lets see a full season and an ability to run the loines again.

1. Dunn - has found a spot in defence. Now a versatile option in our list.

minus 6 : Spencer. 9% hitouts to advantage, that's 2 out of 21. In fact, half his taps went direct to the Crows midfield.

Jacobs was in their best 5. We lost the centre square and clearances.

You have a very short memory, Col Sylvia's best games for the club have been against Collingwood and Hawthorn and he always plays well against these two clubs. You watch every game, the games he plays well are the games he spends most his time in the midfield, hopefully he gets a full pre-season no injuries through the year.

I'm surprised with Dunn getting votes. I thought he looked good in the first quarter but really struggled when the pressure was on (and in defense of the backmen, it was really on big time after half way through the second quarter). He seemed lost and unaccountable to me and had some poor disposals. I admit I've never been a Dunn fan but while he was not the worst yesterday, I didn't think he was in the top 15.

These would have been my votes if I had arrived home before the cutoff:

6. Sylvia: building a bit of consistency late in the season

5. Jones: worked his butt off, as usual

4. Howe: becoming more than just a highlights reel

3. Sellar: a solid target up forward

2. Grimes: another sound performance

1. Tapscott: perhaps the best of the rest

Curry n Beer, you have failed to see development in Blease. That was his best game for the club to date because he played well in the second half... running the game out. He had more involvements than in any game to date (not just a flashy goal here and there). There were also numerous occasions when he put himself in good position to receive and go but team mates chose to ignore him. Yes, he blazed away on a few occasions bu tso does Milne. The development in Blease has been a highlight of the final month of the season... you just can't see it. Stick around!

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    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
