DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - Round 16


Demonland

Recommended Posts

6 - Hogan - it's scary to think where we would be without him.

5 - Cross - backline general. Just professional yet again.

4 - Gawn - dominated in the ruck. Need him to kick straight (or bent on the snaps).

3 - Viney - poor rockcliff

2 - vanDenburg - would have we beat St K with him?

1 - Howe - best game for the year. Should get more votes but still hurting for on the first 14 games.

6. Gawn: He's starting to look at home in #11

5. Cross: Playing like he wants another go around in 2016.

4. Howe: His best game of the season by a long shot.

3. Hogan: His first quarter won us the game.

2. Dawes: I've been one of his biggest critics for a long time, but he was very good today.

1. Jetta: Great attack on the man and the ball, as usual.

6 - Jesse Hogan - in a low scoring game he kicked 4.1 and took 11 marks with 16 touches. Beast.

5 - Jack Viney - gave Rockliff a football lesson. Hes going to give the Bluey a fair shake. He has arrived.

4 - Max Gawn - gave the mids first use and kept us in it in the 3rd quarter with great pressure. Shame he had that poster, deserved a goal

3 - Jeremy Howe - best game of the season by a mile.. used his aerial strength to impact the game. Must do that every week

2 - Daniel Cross - the old warhorse never stops, racked up touches and constantly up thrusts from the backline

1 - Chris Dawes - like Howe, his best game of the season by far. Started like a house on fire when the game was won.

6. Gawn (A versatile and mobile tower)

5. Hogan (Can't believe this kid has only played half a season)

4. Cross (He's got another year in him)

3. Dawes. (Covers a huge amount of ground to impact on the game)

2. Howe, ( Best personal and team game for a while)

1. Jetta. (Never shirks. Rarely beaten)

6 - Viney (negated their best player while getting plenty of useful touches himself)

5 - Hogan (matchwinner)

4 - Cross (Good game culminating in him selling the candy at full back. Never thought I'd see the day)

3 - Gawn (overhead marking a feature)

2 - Howe (looks better in defence)

1 - Jetta (decision making and contesting excellent)

6 - Hogan: His 4 goals won us the game. Outstanding for a young KPF in his first season.
5 - Cross: Just pipped by Hogan for top votes imo. Leadership and courage personified!

4 - Gawn: His contested marking and 'one percenters' typify how he's improving as a player.
3 - Howe: Best game for the year (luckily Roos played him to preserve his trade value)
2 - Jetta: Back to his hard / reliable best.

1 - Garland: Good dedenders' game. Marked (or mostly) spoiled everything in his area.

6.Cross - chopped off and set up love what he brings and think he can go again and will be teaching our boys what playing AFL is about

5.Hogan - bounced back after 2 down weeks and dominated as a key forward, works hard and delivered on the scoreboard

4.Gawn - Improving every week and was the best ruckman on the ground against two guys who have been in decent form of late

3.Viney - really really good year and just always gives 100% at every contest, would hate to play against him, future captain just leads and hasn't hit 50games yet

2.Howe - composed with his ball use and used his aerial talent to advantage, played as he should no keep it up

1.Dawes - worked solidly presented as a target freeing Hogan up applied pressure to opponents forcing mistakes, workrate and pressure of this sort has a massive impact on Hogans ability to influence a game

Unlucky Jetta & Vanders

6- Gawn ( excellent tap work and strong marking )

5 - Dunn ( composed and safe all game )

4 - Hogan ( 4 goals and involvement around the ground)

3- Howe ( actually made some second efforts and was a great springboard from attack)

2- Cross ( would have scored more but for the continued butchering of disposals)

1 - Jetta ( made some important interceptions and tackled superbly)

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
