1. Jack Viney - MFC heart and soul

2. Trengove - finding the ball a bit more

3. Silvia - strong clearance work

4. Dunn - solid in defence

5. McKenzie - nullified Fyfe and found the ball

6. Spencer - combative

I've had it with Watts, today he was a basketballer with no intensity, wouldn't tackle and consistently beaten 1 on 1.

Hahahahahahahaha Watts! So he deserves votes for not chasing, not putting his head over the ball, and genuinely looking like he doesn't want to be part of the team? Give me a break, he was woeful.

Not trying to launch a personal attack on you or anything, but he was shocking.

6 Viney (fantastic to see a player who gives second and third efforts).

The rest don't really deserve votes but the pick of them in my view were:

5 Tom Mc (did a pretty good job on Pav - not sure why he was off ground when Pav took a ripping pack mark on Dunny to score his second, but then again I'm not sure why jack watts was playing down back and a defender Troy Davis was playing forward.

4 Jordie McKenzie (showed intent all day and worked hard on Fyfe and then Mundy).

3 Trenners (I assume he was told to play wide and be a linkman and he racked up heaps of touches. Just wish some of them had been in middle of park where his next kick could hurt them).

2 Garland (not a great game by his standards but Mayne was BOG last week and was quiet this time).

1 Sylvia (As with Dunn and Terlich, he racked up plenty of the ball, but his effective kicks must have tallied only five or six). He did win quite a few hardballs though.

Players who won their position

6. Viney

5. T McDonald

4. J McKenzie

Players who had the next best impact

3. Trengove

2. Kent

1. Dunn

very interesting way of summising but im not sure Trenners really impacted. A much better game but Im not too carried away yet. A for effort though I suppose.

I can never understand how someone manages to kick all but straight to the opposition., or into them !!

so for mine

6- Viney

5- Viney

4 - T Mac

3- Jordie Mck

2 - Kent

1- Trengove

and no I havent made a typo !!

Watts was a complete waste today we played with 17 men, today craig confirmed he doesn't want to coach to allow watts to stand 25m in front of Freo goal allowing players to run past him avoiding contact a all cost he was a disgrace and Craig should have addressed this.

Viney

Trengove

Dunn

6- Viney (Hard at it, in so many contests, running, moving well, great snap goal, only made one kicking error, his best game to date to give him a rising star nomination)

5- Trengove (Best game of the year by a mile, ran a lot harder and didn't stop running after one possession)

4- Dunn (Finally seemed to have his head screwed on properly and was decent with ball use)

3- Terlich (Did an honest job like Dunn all game and found a lot of the ball)

2- McDonald (Very good in contests)

1- Kent (Fell away after half time and his kicking wasn't great, but was really lively and desperate)

(A very surprising top 6)

Apologies to McKenzie, Sylvia and also Watts, not because he was good but because of how he was used.

I'm also shocked that N.Jones was clearly not in our best 6 today. Must be the first time in 2 years this has happened

6. Viney - I know who I'd want with me in the trenches!
5. Trengove - probably his best for a couple of years
4. Mckenzie - subdued the influence of Fyfe / Mundy

3. Dunn - mostly dependable, with only a couple of 'brain fades'

2. Silvia - worked hard, but disposal let him down too often

1. Spencer - continues to make it harder for Jamar

?, no names, but there are a couple I definitely wouldn't want with me in the trenches!

6. Viney - this kid is a footballer and has a lot of Joel Selwood about him in the way he wills himself to a contest and wants for his team to succeed

5. Trenners - showed what he can do worked hard as he always does but was rewarded for his effort today, JT this should be standard performance week in week out

4. Mckenzie - not talented but our midfield is better with him in there to provide the contest and nullify an opponent _ Fyfe today.

3. TMac - provided a good contest down back couldn't be faulted with goals from lace out delivery from Freo mids

2. Kent - I love this kid will get better the more time he spends in this environment, dropped off in the 2nd half as he tired

1 Dunn - same as TMac in providing 1 on 1 contest and has a lot of haters but IMO always provides an effort, despite brain fades

Unlucky - Sylvia tried today but didn't really come off in a choice between he and JW for signature I will choose him every day of the week, Terlich gets plenty of it and always gives 100% but his disposal lets him down and teams hurt us the other way by feeding his direct opponent

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    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.
