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.

Bail deserves a vote or 2

You're probably right in hindsight. I always struggle at these when we've been so outrageously crap.

6 - N.Jones ( by a street )

5 - Cross ( slow, but makes up for it with nous)

4 - Vince ( for weight of possessions )

3 - Tyson ( plenty of possessions but has become soooo slow to move the ball on )

2 - Dunn ( for trying and taking the game on )

1 - Bail ( for trying and taking the game on )

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.

6 - N.Jones (Just works so hard)

5 - B.Vince (Some good run)

4 - D.Tyson (Needs to keep moving, but a good user)

3 - D.Cross (Kept Pridis quiet and subsequently kept me alive in DT)

2 - V.Michie (Thought he has a very solid game)

1 - J. Fitzpatrick (Right positions - needs to mark though)

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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
