6 - Howe ( excellent disposal , regularly broke the lines )

5 - McDonald ( was the mainstay of defence and was rarely beaten 1 on 1 )

4 - Jetta ( easily beat his opponent but his disposal was erratic )

3 - Jones ( prolific, but ignored first options , at the team's expense)

2 - Tyson ( read comments for Jones)

1 - Dunn ( rarely made an error )

Kent maybe unlucky to miss out. Kicked 2.3 today and looked dangerous. He needs to learn when it's the right time to have a shot or pass the ball to a teammate.

Were you guys at the game? Serious question. Dunn gave his opponents so much room and trailed them to the ball all day. He had a shocker IMO.

1. Not deserving to anyone but Frawley I guess

Fan, I know Bail tries but come on..

17 kicks, 4 tackles, countless pressure acts and ran forever. He played his role as well as most and got my votes for that. But you're right. I notice him because I like him. He was much better than most here recognize and not as good as I saw.

I wish I wasn't. Alas.....

Agreed.

Dunn's worst performance of the season against an absolute nobody opponent.

I watched Bail today and clearly you're a fan, Fan and I'm not. IMO he had 3 effective disposals (that I saw) and for the most part, made poor decisions, had ordinary disposal and took the second and inevitably wrong option. If he took the first option, we might see a different player. They were the negatives, the positives were the tackling, pressure and he kicked a nice goal (from a free). Not in my votes.

He runs hard and tries hard but turns it over more often than not. A lot of times today I found between opponents when he pushed back rather than actually accountable. I know this could have been instruction but didn;t appear to be. Jetta smashed his opponent, went hard hard all day and used the ball well. His effort is reason to have him as a backup but he needs to be out of our best 22 sooner rather than later.

6.Howe - nullified Zorko but also found the pill and generally used it well big positive for us in 2014

5.T Mac - should never be the sweeping player setting up rebound or playing anchorman role but he does his job as a one on one defender.

4.Jetta - continued his dominance over direct opponent and gave the dangerous Green an absolute bath

3. Jones - willed himself as usual through the second and third quarters when we really should have taken the initiative and took the game on a bit more

2. Tyson - like Jones got his hands on the pill winning the hard ball and capped it off with scoreboard pressure continues to impress me

1.Frawley - presented an option and held his marks, should have applied greater scoreboard pressure, but at least you flew the Flag in the Pedersen/Merrett incident

surprised I'm the only one that gave Terlich a (single) vote.. he only made one trademark error as I recall and most of the time was pretty solid. Think he is one of those players whose reputation precedes him, in a bad way

He was close C & B but I think his last quarter saw him fall out a lot of errors made, whilst not totally catastrophic they stopped momentum going forward. He certainly was not in the worst 12-15 out there for us today

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
