6.N.Jones - just pips Dunn and could have gone either way, Jones just battles all day willed himself into congestion coming out with the ball and worked for the entire game.

5. Dunn - gave away a fair amount in size to Cloke but came out on top with attitude, smart positioning and desire not to lose

4. Jetta - Elliott is very dangerous and Jetta clearly won this battle and presented options when coming out by running hard

3. Pedersen - continues to just provide options and battles, would like to see him maybe have faith in his kicking from 50m when the option provides

2.Vince - got towelled up in the first 15mins by Pendelbury but for mine was the better player over the 4quarters ran hard, tackled and is always doing the 1%ers

1.Watts - Jack is really working hard when he doesn't have the ball which is good to see, Roosy has really got into his head about never giving the ball away. Smart footballer in the making

Seconded for pretty much the same reasons. Cross unlucky

Unlucky -

Bail yes for the uneducated he nullified Harry O's run and carry and whenever he was given the ball by the Pies Bail was onto him or to close for Harry to run.

Gawn big Maxy was good today I thought he was lucky to hold his spot from last week but he had a good game

Good coaching, then. Bail started on Pendlebury who was outstanding in Q1 (although Bail still got a lot of it too). Vince was moved on to Pendlebury from quarter time and held him quite well while doing significant damage himself. I admit to not realising Bail was on Lumumba, but Cross on Beams also worked for most of the game, too. In short, our coaches chose their match-ups pretty well and showed an ability to think through changes on the day.

I know this sounds like a stupid question but as I was pondering over my votes last night, my husband asked me what does the Demonland Player of the Year actually win? I just assumed it was the title. Am I right?

He earns the right not to be called a spud for the next 2 seasons by Demonland posters.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
