6 - J,Watts - 4 goals and some saving marks in the defensive 50 in the last. Played with purpose and vigour, and dare I say physicality.

5 - J.Frawley - just controlled the back half beautifully, we can not lose this guy hes a legit A grader

4 - D.Rodan - he was everywhere and that goal was amazing

3 - D.Terlich - another 24 touches at 83%., what a find

2 - N.Jones - just keeps on going

1. - C.Dawes - was iffy coming in with that ankle, responds with 12 possies, 7 marks including some great contested grabs and 3 goals.

Wanted to fit Trengove in but he faded in the 2nd half, still a very nice game with 21 possies and 7 tackles.

6 Watts

5 Jones

4 Rodan

3 Terlich

2 Dawes

1 Frawley

Honourable mentions:

Fitzpatrick was great, made a contest, chased and marked, but not quite as much impact as those above.

Toumpas showed enough tonight to make me think he will feature in these votes regularly in the future.

I thigh Gawn battled well against a much stronger more experienced opponent and gave us more than Jamar has this year.

Trengove had a good first half but accumulated rather than impacted.

6.Watts - Showed leadership tonight & stood up late down back to top off his 4 goals

5. Frawley - Sign him up still in best half dozen defenders in the game on ability alone

4. Terlich - the guy is great, hard at it and you know what you get every week, can see him rotating through the middle in the future similar to Shane Tuck

3. Nicho - did a good job on Griffen and would have learnt in the last 15 mins, that top line players never stop

2.Rodan - has his detractors but provides zip and more quality than the Magners & Couch's of our list

1. Dawes- Vital for our structure born leader on & off the field. He either takes the grab or makes sure it hits the ground to our advantage

Really unlucky to Nate Jones, Clisby, Trenners & liked Big Max & Fitzy who all could have taken a vote

Nicho extremely stiff to miss out. Being the one guy that always sticks up for him, hard to leave him out. Think he showed glimpses of what he can be though - a blinding quick tagger with aggression and an ability to break the lines.

Lovely to read the genuine enthusiasm of these posts from New York! Now hopefully there will be less Demonlanders calling for Watts to be traded for a midfielder!

is there any way, just this once, whoever tallies up the votes, to give us the actual result of this game instead of just the overall season leaderboard? I've never understood why that isn't posted, obviously it gets tabulated in order to inform the overall leaderboard and therefore it should be zero extra work to just post the actual result of each individual match alongside the overall season tally. wtf?

6) Watts - aggressive and determined, makes great position

5) Terlich - great footy brain and gets a lot of ball

4) Frawley - set us up with run many times

3) Rodan - hit the ball flat out every time and made something happen

2) N Jones - again

1) Dawes - a much better player than I ever have him credit for

Honourable mentions to Macdonald, Trenners, Fitzy, Nicho, Maxy

At the ground, it's often harder to realise who is going well in stats and who isn't. For example, I thought col Sylvia was bloody good tonight, real intensity and purpose, some great chasing and some of his skills were first rate. Yet watts I thought was a few lapses in concentration from kicking 7.

For mine, live

6-terlich

5-n jones

4-Sylvia

3-watts

2-nicho

1-gawn

Dawes was great, frawley and Rodan unlucky. Nice change to have excessive best players to pick, opposed to struggling to fill the 3,2,1!!

6- Watts ---- Has Craig unlocked his talent?

5- Terlich---- one of this year's best offseason pickups by any club.

4- Jones ---- Same reasons as every week

3- Frawley---- Frawley minus Neeld equals an A grader.

2- Dawes---- Very solid game; can't wait to see him beside Clark

1- Fitzpatrick---- Even though he looks like a newborn giraffe, he played really well and presented all day.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
