Tyson's best has been better but Vince has been more consistent. Eh, who cares, we have both of em, enjoy! :)

I reckon this hits the nail on the head. Vince has had a very good season for us and I see him as top 3 in our B&F, and I feel Tyson had a slow start to the year and mid year went quiet. But as Pipefitter said Tyson's best has been A+ grade bordering on star, and every time he produces a performance like the one vs Port I pinch myself that we managed to nab him AND Salem.

Tyson is so young in terms of games actually played.

Really, Bernie Vince with his experience and age (peak) should be "the man", and he aint. Gerard Healy was spot on about Vince, where he said Vince was happy just to be a B grader. Healy said Vince should have dominated the endurance stuff over pre-season, and didn't.

Vince's stats are better than his actual output IMO. He also does the inevitable Brock McLean "smart ass" kick across his body to split a needle short pass that turns the ball over in dangerous positions.

Both Tyson and Vince have missed some easy kicking targets this year; so maybe I'm a tad unfair to Bernie. Cross has never been a great kick either.

I'd rate Cross; then Tyson; then Vince. But Tyson is playing brilliant footy beyond his experience.

If you were going on B+F votes or overall consistency of the year you'd go Vince.

He's been tagged or done the tagging/defensive job more whilst Tyson has mainly floated around doing his own thing. At times he's drawn the heavy tag away from Jones and Tyson, he's also done the job on Dangerfield and others.

That said Tyson has been our best in both narrow losses to Port and was great in the second half v Essendon.

The main thing is we have 3 class midfielders in Tyson, Vince and Jones who complement each other. 2 more above average in Cross and Viney. If we keep getting that number going up especially with some outside mids then we will have a fair team.

Doms probably has had more stand out games but Vince has been more consistent. They both have been fantastic additions to the side. Dom would be ahead in B & F voting i think just on the fact his had more higher voting games

Yeah I think during rounds 4,5 and 6 Tyson started getting tagged. By round 6 (Sydney game) he was that out of form he was subbed out of the game.

Then he turned his form around in the Adelaide win, kicked a great last qtr goal, and then was steller against Dogs, Richmond and Port.

Vince =more likely to get pinged on the tiles.

Nah fair comment, I remembered it incorrectly as him starting a bit slow but you're right he was at the very least in our best to start the year.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
