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

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

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
