DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - ROUND 5

Featured Replies

 

6 - N Jones

5 - Viney

4 - Dawes

3 - Frawley

2 - Cross

1 - Grimes

Much the same top six or so as last week - the issue is the others who played quite well last week played poorly today (McDonald, Georgiou, Bail, Watts, Tyson, Dunn, Spencer).

6 - Nathan Jones: The Ablett-matchup didn't quite work, but his form was again outstanding and IMO, he will make AA at this rate.

5 - Jack Viney: not necessarily the most talented kid I've seen wear red and blue, but right up there with the most impressive.

4 - Chris Dawes: extremely wasteful, but cannot question his effort and worth to this side. Worth every cent.

3 - Daniel Cross: consistent player.

2 - James Frawley: like Dawes, he was wasteful. But certainly makes us look better in the F50.

1 - Jeremy Howe: wasteful, but some decent signs.

Apologies: nil

 

6. N Jones - all heart, no fear. Our champ.

5. Dawes - wasteful, but the good far outweighs the bad

4. Viney - busted a gut for us today. Will only get better as the season progresses.

3. Frawley - great work-rate, but needs to hold more grabs

2. Cross - worked very hard against the odds

1. Grimes - building into form. Hard and reliable.

Nope. Not today. Today was the Dunn of old - his kicking out of the back line was woeful, too many times he went with the 'I can kick 50 metres, let me show you' kicks, which go a long distance but go straight up too.

Having a good year, but today was not a good game from Dunn. Prefer him forward, I'd like to see Roos work on a way to get him forward and Pedersen back.


6. Jones

5. Viney

4. Cross

3. Dawes (but missed some crucial shots)

2. Frawley

1. Grimes

6. N Jones : Tired all day

5. Viney: Hard all day

4. Dawes: Our best forward but needed 4.2 not 2.4

3. Frawley: Looks dangerous every time he came in the game but only made fleeting appearances
2. Cross: Tried all day again but like the other two mis in the votes lacks polish

1. Kennedy-Harris: Came into the game and did enough in the second half to pinch this vote based on no one else doing any more than him

Hard to argue with any of the votes, but Dawes and Frawley's misses cost us the game.


6- n jones

5- dawes

4- viney

3- frawley

2- cross

1- pederson

Maybe. I'd say the umpires giving them multiple free kicks inside their attacking 50 cost us the game personally. Disgraceful display today.

6. N. Jones (this has become a cut and paste each week now. I wish someone else would stand up)

5. Dawes

4. Viney

3. Frawley

2. Bail (his job on Harbrow was very effective)

1. Cross.

6. N Jones

5. Viney

4. Cross

3. Dawes

2. M Jones

1. Frawley


the nomination of 6 players is definitely one too many today when you see players such as Howe, Bail, Jay K-H & Pederson get the 1 point nomination.

Howe & J K-H weren't sighted in the 1st half and played respectable 2nd halves, Bail is another one of our midfielders who just doesn't get it enough and when he does is so poor by foot. I thought Pedo was ok and has moved from SPUD to Serviceable over the last couple of weeks, but to mention any of these players in the context of "getting votes" is laughable.

6. Jones

5. Viney

Daylight

4. Frawley

3. Cross

2. Pedersen

1. Dawes

6 - N.Jones ( has added class and inspiration to his repertoire )

5 - Dawes ( the epitome of determination )

4 - Cross ( we couldn't ask for a more professional senior player )

3 - Jetta ( was often found in precarious situations , but was rarely beaten )

2 - Viney ( lacks polish but is learning quickly .. will be a star )

1 - Grimes ( consistent and calming )

 

Hard to argue with any of the votes, but Dawes and Frawley's misses cost us the game.

Their hard work in the forward line kept us in it.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
