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.

We did, but the Dockers had 5.

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    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
