This week Tom McDonald, Jack Watts, Mark Jamar and Jack Viney made the AFL team of the week. I cannot remember the last time we had one entry let alone 4 of them. Great that Viney was recognised for the work on Ablett.

Wines and Trelor also made it - it is worth looking at their photos. Seems like they were taken in the under 12's....

Here is to many more!

    That's no mean feat considering the quality of the Freo v Port game and the frighteningly good performances of the Hawks and the Crows.

    Its a very good thing Nathan isn't one of those, we need the pressure to come right off him this year

    The comments on the AFL Facebook page are unbearable...

    Picture of Jack Watts gracing the article as well.

    Maybe it's just the cynic in me, but if we had have got smashed on the weekend, Jack Viney would be getting chastised left, right and centre for playing a rough tag on Ablett.

    It's amazing what a win means other than just the 4 points.

    Not sure about Jamar and Viney in the team of the week. Both were good, but not amazing. Happy for Watts to get recognition and McDonald is very well deserved.

    Excellent effort and well deserved by the lads (although I suspect that it will get up the nose of some Demonlanders seeing Watts there)!

    Watts over Jack Riewoldt? Stiff.

    But 4 Demons, 3 Hawks, give us the premiership now.

    Re Jamar, you don't need to touch the ball in the second half to get in the team of the week? The other three were very good.

    When was the last time this would have happened? In previous years we wouldn't get 4 in the team of the week with a decent win in a split round!

    Riewoldt was playing against a rabble

    Watts game was much better

    I suspect that you always garner more points in a winning team as indicated by the leaders in the Brownlow voting. Nice to see how we go this week against the same rabble? Another four MFC players will be nice!

    p.s. Also nice to see that the coaches rated Watts, Viney and McDonald in their 'Players of the Round'!

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
