6 - Vince - great game on Danger (and others) really hard at it

5 - Tommy Mac - held Walker to the most influence-less 3 goal game I've seen

4 - Harry - some great running to keep us in it

3 - Jones - great in and under when he was targeted

2 - Tyson - working really hard as the game continued

1 - Hogan - we'd be screwed without him

Special mention to Garlett. I couldnt give you votes with 2.4 - sorry buddy

6 - McDonald - outstanding ( and the AFL website didn't even include him amongst our best )

5 - Vince - aggressive and dynamic

4 - Lamumba - always at contest and prolific all day

3 - Jones - brilliant in and under

2 - Cross - loved his courage and energy

1 - Jamar - intelligent tap work and at least broke even against all odds

Cross- 3 votes?

One for each kick on the full ?

6. Tom McDonald - continued his rise (Walker was gifted his goals).

5. Bernie Vince - outstanding discipline, aggression and effort (especially given zilch pre-season).

4. 'H' Lumumba - prolific ball winner and used it well in the conditions.

3. Nev Jetta - again had Betts measure

2. Nathan Jones - another 'heart & soul' game under duress.

1. Col Garland - disciplined and approaching form of a few years ago.

6. McDonald - Looking All Australian

5. Jones - Loved his hardness

4. Vince - A side of him I hadn't noticed before - loved it

3. Lumumba - Great pick up for us

2. Garland - Good the 2013 version is back

1. Brayshaw - Great attitude and endeavour. The future

6 - TMac. He's a beast. Thrashed the form forward of the competition. Walker's three goals make him look better than he was.

5 - Vince. Took on Dangermouse in the middle and didn't just beat him, he bullied him.

4 - Garland. Was solid all day. Took Dangermouse when they moved him forward and kept him from doing any harm.

3 - Jetta. Kept Betts under control. Could easily be ahead of Garland.

2 - Lamumba. Won heaps of the ball, chipped in in defence, kept going all game.

1 - Jones. The usual for Jones. He was hard at it, always involved, won his own ball and probably should have had a bunch more frees given how often they hit him in the head.

5. Bernie Vince - outstanding discipline, aggression and effort (especially given zilch pre-season).

Five free kicks against him suggests he wasn't as disciplined as he could have been.

Fair point but different context. I was referring to the discipline Bernie showed in curbing Dangerfield's influence for 98% of the match.

6. Tom McDonald - BOG for third consecutive week now. Loved how frustrated Walker was looking by the end. Form defender of the competition at present.

5. Bernie Vince - said in the post match interview with Burgs that he was "just having a bit of fun". Hope he has a bit of fun every week then, as I can't recall him ever playing with such intent in MFC colours (or maybe I just have a short memory).

6 - Bernie Vince - already bleeds for the jumper and has barely played 20 games for the club. Smashed that actor Dangerfield.

5 - Tom McDonald - would be AA after 3 rounds

4 - Heritier Lumumba - plenty of the ball and lots of drive. Think he will be primed for the G on Friday night

3 - Nathan Jones - a nice response to last weeks quiet game, led from the front, got plenty of touches and kicked a goal

2 - Jesse Hogan - in just his third game already providing a massive presence and kicking goals. Straightened us up again today

1 - Neville Jetta - smashed Eddie Betts once again

    TRAINING: Wednesday 19th February 2025

    Demonlander The Analyser was the sole Trackwatcher out at Casey Fields today to bring you the following observations from this mornings preseason training session. Training  was at Casey today. It consisted of a match simulation for one half  and then a free choice activity time.

I think Kolt looks like he’s im

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    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’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    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
