The winner of the brownlow didnt even make the all australian so jones had no hope

The All Australian team is 90% popularity parade and 10% objective reward for quality.

Great to see Priddis win...sometimes it has seemed that the umpires play 'catch-up' and overly notice a player who perhaps should have won the previous year.

Great to see they resisted this temptation and to see a whole bunch of new names in the top 10!

...but... Josh Kelly will win 5 Brownlows!?!

..... "tell him he is dream'n"

I really doubt it but it doesn't matter because we already have someone who is polling well at an early stage. An inspired pick by Roos.

Congratulations to Matt Priddis, he's been a consistently excellent player for a long time now. I always wonder how much more highly regarded players like Priddis, Boak, etc would be if they were playing in one of the big Victorian teams.

It is also fantastic to have the Jim Stynes medal presented during the ceremony. There are a lot of players doing great work in the community that you never hear about, and it is nice that they are recognised.

PS. Kevin Sheedy - just go away forever. Please. I thought that tribute was meant to be about Bailey & Hafey, but you seemed to take it as an opportunity to talk about yourself for five minutes.

Humour me for a moment:

Tyson gets 11 votes in one year and has only played 35 career games. No GWS or Suns player goes close to that. (Prestia 13 votes 73 games)

Jack Macrae at the Dogs 10 votes this year (34 career games) also very impressive. Picked one spot ahead of Oliver Wines (why oh why didn't we pick him!?! ......Macrae that is.)

Scully 10 votes over his career of 86 games (at $45,000 per game).

Well done Mr Tyson lets hope you win it one day (after MrJones).

Perhaps Sheedy thought that at the time, DB was treated pretty shabbily by the MFC. There is some weight to that argument.

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    PREGAME: Rd 18 vs Essendon

    The Demons are back at the MCG once again and will once again be fighting for a spot in the Top 8 as they come face to face with Bombers on Saturday night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
