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

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]

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.

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

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.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
