    I was so happy for Viney to get 2 votes.

    Congrats to ablett. Thankgod Swan didnt win. Im not sure who drank more, him or his gf.

    By the way superstar moloney only got 2 votes. 1 was against us. Even Watts got more votes than him. Just saying

    That would have been his old childhood sweety mate from Broady. She does handle a Crownie all right.

    Probably been working on it since the early teens. A 3-vote performance.

    Not only that I am sure I seen her open two crownies, one for herself and the other for swannie, with her teeth, then spit the tops onto the next table.

    When Swan was closing in on the lead and they had the camera focused on him at his table, did anyone else see the hand come in from the right of screen with the word "setup" written on it in biro? Pretty funny I thought.

    Which makes Jack the 88th best player in the competition..!

    Whoop Whoop!

    Edit: If you ignore the 24 players rendered ineligible... i.e. he's actually 112th best player in league.

    only Jones and Garland got invited. Trngove as skipper and the Rooster as new coach.

    Nah, Howey was there. Or at least his missus was.. :blink:

    One of my favourite parts of the night was seeing Fred Goldsmith, the oldest living and only defender to win it. I live in hope that they'll one day amend the voting system to duly reward the key position players. Tom Lynch kicked 10 goals in a game and still couldn't manage to get the 3 votes ffs. It's a disgrace.

    I reckon it was a close call on that, although it's not every day a player snags ten (although it was against GWS).

    3 Votes - Danger booted 4 goals, 28 touches and 9 marks

    2 Votes - Lynch 10 goals, 21 disposals and 11 marks

    1 Vote - Thompson 0 goals, 32 disposals and 8 marks

    True, I watched the game and Danger was awesome (against GWS), but unless the guy who polls 3 votes kicks 11 goals, 10 goals gets you the 3 votes, surely. Lynch was superb that day. Robbed in my book, and indicative of the umps general favouritism.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
