6. Jack Grimes

5. Jack Viney

4. Matt Jones

3. Nathan Jones

2. Mark Jamar

1. Sam Blease

(First time I've given votes to a sub who was on for less than a full quarter but I think that might say something about the lack of effort we saw out there today]

The rest of the votes go to us Dees supporters who keep barracking and supporting for no return. Nothing. Zilch.

I think you've got it exact. Blease came on and tried. Didn't even do everything right, but he was visibly trying the whole time he was on the ground.

Grimes' efforts in the last quarter should leave several teammates hanging their heads in shame that they let him go alone.

Is this thread some sick attempt at humour? I think from now on, we should vote for the 6 worst players on the ground, and the Demonland player of the year should go to the player with the least votes. Here's mine:

6. Sellar

5. Tapscott

4. Gillies

3. Watts

2. Pedersen

1. Rodan

Felt sorry for Blease. If I were coach (and probably a good thing I'm not), I would have left him on the bench, and said 'Don't worry Sam, this isn't your doing' and left the rest of those duds out there to earn at least a portion of their pay.

For me that is it, Nate Jones, Jamar & Clark all had a dip and can maybe get 1 point for that, Sammy Blease had a go when he came on but the game was gone at that stage

Tapscott was next to useless today. A good suburban footballer.

In all fairness he has done little since being drafted.

Viney

Grimes

Jamar

Blease

Jones N

Dunn

And by this I mean only two worthy of votes and perhap the other 4 worthy of keeping there place in the side. Would swap Clark for Dunn if (Dunn was another player who was totally unaccountable - can't get the full picture on TV)

I feel dirty that I even considered Sylvia, when we could see how little pressure or chasing he did.

Did Matt Jones do something?

Didn't see it myself.

Sad when a guy on debut is the best player and best kick in the team at 18.

6. Vieny (although he dropped away he was better when he had it than Grimes)

5. Grimes (fought it out all day but wasn't as damaging as Viney)

4. Jones M (Great effort from a first gamer, got lots of it, kicking needs a bit of work - didn't make the distance from 45 m)

3. Clarke (battled hard despite rubbish delivery. Still kicked a couple from limited opportunities.

2. Jones N (played ok but didn't work hard enough defensively

1. McKenzie (everything he touched went to s*** but at least he was in the play and did seem to be genuinely interested in running hard)

6. Viney- by the far the best

5. Jamar- looked pretty good around the ground

4. Mckenzie- Better than most games last year, quite effective

3. Grimes- Liked his run around defence and his posessions, though still didn't like his decision making.

2. Clark- Didn't really do anything wrong, a couple of great goals from 50

1. Sylvia- Decent.

Jamar is responsible for supply to our midfield. Take a look at the first 4 centre bounces and the majority of others later, you may wish to reconsider your voting. Thought their big blokes killed us and gave their midfield an armchair ride. Also set the tone for the game. I wouldn't have had him in my first 10 today.

    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.
