The same six that featured in the Demonland poll. This would have to be a first. I hope that the other seventeen teams are paying attention!

Most had Brayshaw instead of Garlett.

I think putting 6 MFC players in is a bit of a knee jerk reaction. The team was good, that was a surprise - must have had several stars.

I also had Brayshaw in my best six however I don't have a problem with Garlett (or even Watts for that matter). I think that they had to focus on positions (which is why Gawn is nominated in the forward pocket rather than in the ruck)!

Only 12 teams played this week with the bye.

Still a great result.

When was the last time the Dees had more players in the team of the week than any other team?!

This is why I love footy.

Probably about the last time we beat the Cats at skilled!

Round one, actually, I seem to recall we had four.

Has this ever happened to MFC before? I certainly can't remember more than maybe the occasional three. Not even sure is the highest number from one team since this has been around.

Shows that there has been significant progress as a team.

Keep it up.

just nit picking here- why the [censored] is Vince not named guts or one of the onballers. 34 touches, 38, 38- more clearances, more contested posession than cripps. its not about 'team balance' as a. there is no such team or b. any of the other blokes there could be named HFF as well as a better mid is named as such. Pisses me off

Pretty rare for us to have the whole ground covered in the team, defender, ruckman, midfield and forward..they all deserved some recognition and well deserved. Im over the moon for Gawn, he is like a Toumpas for me, someone who i really want to make it.

I agree! We should have had eight in the team, including Vince and Brayshaw!

Vince has to be in All Australian form

If he keeps this up, he should be selected... but then not play because heaven forbid he gets injured!

We need consistency from BV 3 weeks of B.O.G compared to 5 weeks of 25 disp etc ..i prefer the latter...

He has had 25 touches 6 out of the last 7 games, so that's reasonable consistency

Sorry C & B

Ask Robbo, he beat the Cats single handed.

7G 3B equal highest tally of his career.

I love the man, so much humility.

    The tough on baller won his second Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy in a narrow battle with skipper Max Gawn and Alex Neal-Bullen and battled on manfully in the face of a number of injury niggles.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.
