It's the biggest resurrection since Dunn's last out of contract year!

Jonesy apparently a victim of his own standards judging by some votes. Led the disposals and the clearances. In the top 6 on the ground I would've thought.

6. Tyson (really, 3 1/2 quarters of outstanding footy and you guys don't have him for 6?)

5. Dunn (strong down back)

4. N. Jones (keeps on going)

3. Pederson (I was wrong)

2. Jetta (I was wrong mach 2)

1. Cross (impact on Polec)

Go back and watch his disposal in the first quarter and then decide if he still rates six. I still love the way he goes about it though and look forward to him going head-to-head with Pendles next week, unless he cops Macaffer.

My votes:

6 Dunn

5 Pedo

4 Tyson

3 Cross

2 Jetta

1 N.Jones

Just finished watching it was at the U/18'S & WAFL all day so missed the live telecast, so knew the result but my god we are a totally different team and footy is enjoyable again

6. Tyson faded late but most of our boys did

5. Jetta have always liked the kid and did another quality job today

4. Cross like Jetta did a fantastic job for us and got the better of Polac

3. N Jones just maintains the same standards week in week out

2. Pedersen surely the most improved player on our list attacking marking contests and just full of confidence looks to be enjoying his footy

1. Dunn great job on Schulz, bad mistake late but gets the vote for his game over 4 quarters

Can't vote as I didn't see the game but a couple of observations.

Who would have imagined 12 months ago that Dunn and Pedersen would be in the team let alone regularly being named in our better players. I know it has been mentioned before, but what an amazing transformation. A credit to all involved.

You might be adding Jetta to that list soon. He's looked really good the last few games he's played. He's shut down two of the best small forwards in the game in Betts and Wingard. Someone in another thread suggested he's on track for AA, and if he keeps this up they could be right.

Some didn't give Tyson a vote after 30 touches and two goals, obviously BOG

Dunn was very good for us 12mths ago. A lot of posters seem to forget from mid 2012 Dunn has been one of our most reliable. Before that, a liability, but lets not change history. Pedo, well, ill agree with you on that one.

Statistically Dunn was the best 1-1 defender in the league last season.

6. Cross. His job on Polec was brilliant as Polec has been in great form of late. Furthermore, he took some super important grabs around the ground.

5. Pederson. Big strong marking who loves throwing his weight around. Some great bumps and som crunching tackles. Great job

4. Tyson. Couple shanks cost him the 6 but how good is this kid going to be!

3. N Jones. Just another truck load of clearances, posseys and tackles. Typical Jonesy effort but doesn't stand out as much noting he is no longer surrounded by witches hats for team mates. Still, this man is a star.

2. Dunn. Really enjoy getting on here week after week saying how wrong I was about the boy. Good job

1. Jamar. I think our team walks taller when he is out there and helps out our mids so much.

Jamar is probably lucky over Jetta really only sneaking in after smacking out Lobbe,

maybe I should have said at the start of 2013 season re Dunn.

And yes Jetta should be added too. Roos held faith while many of us had him on the scrap heap. He has claimed some good scalps, and had Wingard's until Schultz finished him off and stole Jetta's thunder

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
