6- Michael Evans-- he worked hard all day and stood up when we needed it

5- Nathan Jones-- do I need to explain?

4- Jeremy Howe-- huge last quarter from Howey, including a few clutch goals

3- Jack Grimes-- just a typical match from the skipper.

2- Max Gawn-- it's great to have him back in the team, he played very well.

1- Shannon Byrnes-- very good match today... was one of the few who worked hard throughout quarters 2 & 3. Was robbed of his fourth goal.

Honourable mentions: Sylvia, Frawley, Terlich, Trengove

6 - Nathan Jones - our heart and soul again

5 - Jack Grimes - finds the footy at will, stood up when needed

4 - Shannon Byrnes - Best game by far for the MFC, should have had 4 goals but was robbed by the review

3 - Jack Trengove - Best game foir a while, and kicked a captains goal in the last to put us 3 goals ahead. Also had 10 tackles.

2 - James Frawley - absolutely smashed Jeremy Cameron

1 - Max Gawn - this guy is going to be huge for our structure, and today showed that; Kick it in long to the big fella and good things happen

Apologies - Jeremy, Howe, Colin Garland, Matt Jones. Colin Sylvia

6. Byrnes - stood up at crucial moments in this match. 23 possies, 12 of them contested with 3 goals. A surprisingly rounded performance. Well done.

5. Trengove - 10 tackles, come to expect that, but worked hard going both ways. Massive role in this win.

4. Grimes - demanded the ball all day and generally used it well. Both captains clearly amongst the best.

3. Evans - boy oh boy wowee, we have a potential new regular starter. Works his arse off and has the skills to back that up.

2. N Jones - it's all been said. The man is great.

1. Gawn - never leave again, Maxy.

5. Howe

4. Byrnes

3. Evans

2. Jetta

1. Sylvia

Honorable mentions to Gawn given his first game back, Terlich (love his attack, run & hardness at the contest), Garland's refusal to accept mediocrity and fight his way through traffic to turn defense into attack, Chip for his close checking and ability to read the ball in flight and body/pressure his opponent out of the play over 4 quarters and Grimes for his creative play and will to get to another contest.

N Jones - competitive throughout, kept us in it

S Byrnes - showed the experience and poise needed when we were crumbling

M Gawn - Provided an option around the ground and up front

M Evans - Bit of speed, skill and more importantly seems to possess a footy brain

M Jones - a lot of hardwork (possesions,pressure) before it got easy

C Garland - attacked from defence

Of course not being at the game, this doesn't take into account what defensive pressure/running they did. For 3 quarters we were exposed again.

6 - Nathan Jones: Heart and soul of this footy club. Will go down as an MFC great by the time he's done.

5 - Michael Evans

4 - Shannon Byrnes

3 - Jack Grimes

2 - Max Gawn

1 - Jack Trengove

Howe, Sylvia, M. Jones, Terlich good too. You can see why Matt Jones won Box Hill's most consistent player award last year.

Watts still plays like a lazy teenage girl.

6. Jones - did what he does, and was essential

5. Grimes - all day all day

4. Howe - most impressed by one of his less spectacular goals, in the last corner, create by sheer workrate to lead back toward goal again

3. Byrnes - Kept bobbing up and being effective

2. Evans - what a special last quarter

1. Gawn - did well in each role he was asked to do, and it mattered

Most impressive team behaviour for me was that our defenders were looking to take marks. a really visible change of behaviour and confidence compared to just a couple of weeks ago where they were spoiling things which clearly should have been defensive marks. Really important change and CREDIT TO NEELD for turning around that loss of confidence.

6. Byrnes - Showed leadership for 4 qtrs was our most consistant player across the game.

5. Jones - consistant but miss a couple he could have kicked.

4 - Evans - 3 goals from a midfielder, ran all day - very good.

3. Gawn - contested marks held how refreshing...

2. Sylvia - Finally showed something last qtr

1. Davey - I thought his impact for playing just over a qtr was profound. He created options, space and pressure in defence. 2 Goals we good reward.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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
