DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - ROUND 5


Demonland

Recommended Posts

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.

6. N.Jones

5. Viney

4. Dawes

3. Frawley

2. Cross

1. Dunn

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. 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

5. Dawes

4. Viney

3. Frawley

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

1. Cross.

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 - 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 )

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
