DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - ROUND 4

[Demonland 66,262]

Six players in order 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ... please

[Whispering_Jack 28,066]

For once, we won't be struggling to find six but I have a feeling N Jones might figure.

[Pennant St Dee 11,444]

6. Jack Grimes - is and will continue to develop as a leader

5. Jack Trengove - starting to get fitness back, tackling machine

4. Max Gawn , good at bounces but provided more around the ground which is what we have been crying out for

3. Shannon Byrnes - Showed a lot today answered a lot of critics

2. Nathan Jones - once again you know what your going to get

1. Michael Evans - stepped up when needed to

Unlucky Howe, Bail & Pederson

[Good Times Grimes 2,396]

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

[What 18,810]

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

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

6. Gawn

5. Jones

4. Evans

3. Byrnes

2. Howe

1. Grimes

[P-man 13,276]

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.

[Demon Dynasty 15,873]

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.

6. Grimes- He was outstanding today, racked em up.

5. Brynes- Stood up when we were down, had a good game.

4. Trengove- was a machine today, going to be fully fit soon.

3. Sylvia- was a highlight to watch Col play well

2. Howe- dominated, plain and simple

1. Evans- won us the game.

special mention, Colin Garland

[Ungarieboy 358]

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.

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.

1 - Jetta

[Little Goffy 12,764]

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.

3. grimes - heart on his sleeve leader played another good game

2. evans - super impressive again

1. Gawn - great game, just reward for effort

howe was also great

[Footynut 302]

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.
