An in-depth analysis of Melbourne Demons’ best roster, chances of playing finals footy this AFL season

Just had a read of this article by Ben Gibson, couldn't tell you much about the bloke, can't tell you if he is a Demons fan or not but this is a really good write up on us.

His best 22 for this year is more than fair and is surprisingly insightful.

Reading all this positive press for our boys is not only great for us as supporters but will give our playing group a really good morale and confidence booster.

Looking forward to a belter of a year with our current group.

NOTE* 1 omission who wasn't mentioned in this list was M . Jones, while he will never be a Viney or Brayshaw, I have been really happy with how he has been managed by Roos and Goodwin and respect the clubs patience with him, granted in the past he has had some absolute howlers there is something about him that I really enjoy when he plays well, the kid isn't afraid to kick a goal or 2 either. Hope this year is kind to him and he can really come out of his shell, I think he was only on the field for 11 minutes on Sunday and managed 6 possessions prior to his head knock. Good on him.

I agree TSD. Like most last year I wasn't impressed with the 'other Jones' last year but so far this year I have.  He has been really efficient and reliable down back and his creativity and decision making first class - not to mention his courage. I have him 23rd man in my R1 team but on NAB form would be happy for him to make it.
