6. Michie - Showed a lot of composure and game sense. Also won a fair bit of ball.

5. Cross - Very nice shut down role.

4. Fitz - Lacked polish but he kept working, kept hitting packs and snagged a couple of goals.

3. Bail - Provided endless run and scored a pretty decent running shot.

2. Pedersen - Came back into the game in the second half and had an impact.

1. Viney - Faded, but was one of our better players in a dismal first half.

    6 Howe - Only bloke who can get his boot on the ball quick enough to actually go forward

    5 N.Jones - Still turning into trouble too much, but always working and presenting

    4 Cross - Priddis had been the form player of the league for the past month.

    3 Vince - Wish he'd do a bit more with the ball, but at least he got it heaps.

    2 Bail - Our only true running player.

    1 Dunn - Still handy with his kicking but needs a left footer down back with him so he can switch on occasions.

    Biggest surprise: Jetta's worst game this year.

    Not surprisingly Jetta's form has been woeful since signing his contract extension.

    Wasn't he on Devon smith last week who was BOG.

    It's not a surprise to me that Terlich's football has gone off the rails since Roos has come on board.

    He was delisted by Roos in 2008 at Sydney.

    Yes I did. I rewarded the people who did better than I expected. Jones got plenty of ball but really didn't stand out to me as having that much impact. I honestly thought it was a bit of a flat game form him despite his disposal count. The others were the ones I saw hurling themselves into the fray and really fighting for it and in general had more of an impact that I would have expected.

    Four of these six traded in this season.

    Sure, it's the votes for only one game but Vince, Tyson and Cross have been doing it all year. Good to see Michie is starting to string some good games together, too.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
