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.

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
