Immensely hard voting this week. I didn't have too much trouble picking the top six, but ordering them was nearly impossible. Very much a raffle after Jonesy.

Great to see Howe and Watts in everyone's top six after people were calling for them to be dropped a couple weeks ago.

6 - N.Jones ( enjoyed more freedom and was an inspiration)

5 - Tyson ( smooth movements bely a razor sharp brain )

4 - Howe ( great springboard in defence, literally)

3 - Pederson ( has surprised every single Dees' supporter)

2 - Vince ( wonderful second half )

1 - Dawes ( for consistent second efforts and great endeavour)

6. N.Jones - He absolutely loves our Footy Club, and this shone through for every one of his 100 minutes today. What an ispirational leader!

5. Tyson - Stellar game again. What did you say Mr Barrett?

4. Viney - Genuine star of the future! One of the TV commentators described him as 'a brick with eyes'. The most creative brick I've ever seen!

3. Pedersen - Great game! How good is Paul Roos? Sows ears and silk purses come to mind.

2. Howe - Growing as a defender. Today he marked them in the back half, previously he has gone for the punch. Gave us run and his ball use was good.

1. Watts - Yes Jack, we knew you could do it!

Apologies to 16 others!

Max Gawn made a huge difference to us today. Made us multi-dimensional, particularly in attack. There were at least three instances where he should have been paid either a free kick or mark, all well within range. He is here to stay and we will be so much better for it.

Likewise Jimmy Toumpas. Was a very creditable game. Showed much better defensive skills today than he has before. He is also here to stay.

Christian Salem. His hardness around the ball and never say die attitude almost puts him in future in the Viney class. His kicking is sublime, and will be a huge acquisition for us in future years.

Finally, if we get hogan in the second half of the season, I suggest we will win more than we lose from then on.

We can now see the shape of our next premiership,side. God it is exciting!

Midfield slowly wore them down and got on top today. 14 less i50s than last week but much better use of ball coming inside 50 helped. 2nd highest conversion of inside 50s to goals and the most marks inside 50 for the year today.

Still a few players giving us some "tear your hair out" moments but otherwise great effort all round.

Vince and Dunn also very good. No love for Dunn? Took some crucial grabs at crucial times and marshalled the backline. Just outside the votes for mine. Big Maxy Gawn also unlucky.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
