DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - Round 3


Demonland

Recommended Posts

6 N Jones, who is just about our only AFL level player.

5 Viney, who's as good a young kid as you could hope for

4 Terlich, who gave us some run and layed a few great tackles

3 M Jones, who is already one of our better mids

2 McDonald, who has the makings of a brilliant CHB if he can just get his Joel MacDonald-like errors out of his game

1 Bail, who showed effort and courage in the face of great adversity. Hopefully he can continue his career without damaging his post-AFL life.

Terlich? Had a whole collection of really awful clangers.

For mine, I'd slot Tom McDonald into the list instead of Terlich. Really battled hard all day, won a lot of contests and gave a lot of run, and kept being let down by lack of support.

I can't believe my eyes.

Terlich?!!??!

Made our bottom 6, for mine.

Turned it over almost every single time he had the ball! He appeared to have no idea what he was doing, often taking off in a beeline before not knowing where he was going.

Wow.

Anyway:

6 - N. Jones

5 - Sylvia

4 - McDonald

3 - Grimes

2 - Clark

1 - Viney

Considering how poor we have been at getting the ball, at least Terlich went and got the bloody thing.

I agree about Tom McDonald. He looks amazing at times but was flogged one-on-one today. His aerial defence needs work

6. N. Jones.

5. M Jones

4. C. Sylvia

3. L. Tapscott

2. D. Terlich

1. J. Trengove

Terlich was a goer and holds his place Tapscott may have got a vote but for the three clangers in a row in the third right in front of me. Cheers to Davey and Howe for a couple of highlights that got me off my seat!

We definitely were not watching the same game.

He had a couple of clangers which stood out but in general his ball use and run was much better than what we've been getting from down back, not that it would be too hard.

Nathan Jones - 28 disposals; 1 effective. Not for me.

Ed: 1st? qtr, Grimes leaves his man in centre of ground to man up; calls/points to his man to be covered....N Jones nearest player on his own....didn't/wouldn't/couldn't cover...man got the ball...QED

    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

    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

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
