Not sure how anyone could have left Dunn out of the top 6.

Dunn was by far our best. Kept Judd to his career worst performance against Melbourne (63 DT points) and one of his worst dozen games overall (when not injured). At the same time Dunn got plenty of the ball, great goal, competed well, ran hard. I say it was the perfect tagging performance.

Dunn deserved more credit.

Judd didn't get near it by himself. Dunn played well on him, but he was not anywhere near our best. I watch every game twice to figure out why our midfield is so bad, so I watch who's on who very closely. Let's be clear; Judd is not the Judd we remember. Dunn dun good, but he was not worthy of the six votes.

Also, it's getting to the point now where Nathan Jones is actually overrated on this site. There's no way he should have three times as many votes as Jack Grimes and twice as many votes as Colin Garland. Those three should be about even, with daylight between them and the rest.

Poor Jack Grimes :(

couldn't believe when I read the papers this morning that neither of them had garland even in the best let alone our best player which he, alongside dunn, clearly was. Just shows they purely look at the stats column rather than the impact players actually have on the game

Nathan Jones could probably miss the rest of the year and still win our Best and Fairest!

He is our spiritual leader regardless of who has the captain tag next to their name.

    Demonland Trackwatchers ventured down to Gosch's Paddock for the final week of training for the 1st to 4th Years until they are joined by the rest of the senior squad for Preseason Training Camp in Mansfield next week.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
