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.

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
