6.  Watts:  Jack has arrived, and there's no better way for him to confirm his arrival than against the filth.

5.  Viney: Ferocious at the ball and man.  Simply bleeds red & blue, and might heading for AA selection.

4.  N. Jones:  Getting back to his best, and we all know how good that is!

3.  Gawn:  The linchpin for our emerging midfield.  Another excellent game in the ruck and at critical times around the ground.

2.  Wagner:  Surprised me and lots of others around here.  Calm under pressure and took the game on.  Easy to see him as a 'regular' on that performance.

1.  Lumumba:  Getting back to the form we recruited him for.  His run from defence suits our new game style to a tee.

Unlucky: Great team effort today, but a few like T.Mac. Tyson, Pedersen deserve a special mention.

It was a scrappy mistake riddled match and the Pies were shocking. They played like "Melbourne" 2007-2014. 

[P-man 13,366]

Extremely tough.

Throw a blanket over about 10 players from here.

Surprised Bugg is not at least featuring in more "honourable mentions", if not the votes!

[Demon Dynasty 17,094]

6. Watts - First goal set the scene as did his first half. Just needs to put 2 of those together to finish! Solid 2nd also though

5. Viney - The Rampaging Bull. 10 Clearances. Not sure how many of those were effective. Needs to be more aware though when he gets a free or a mark as to whether/when to play on. . Cost us at least 2 sure fire forward entries today by playing on unnecessarily which resulted in turnovers and Pie goals to give them back some momentum. Those two missed entries could have sealed the game much earlier IMO.

4. Tyson - Solid. Still a little slow to decide what he's going to do. A split second in speeding this up and making better choices and he becomes a very damaging mid.

3. Pedersen - Solid and reliable. Put body on the line in the clinches also and ran hard all day. 2 critical goals.

2. Kent - Spread well, ran hard and provided solid options on the outside. Much needed on the vast expanses of the G for some team balance. 5 i50s, 6 tackles and a goal. Nice come back from the Bombers horror match Deano. Just reduce the clangers pls....5 today.

1. LUMUMBA! - The run, the carry, the breaking of lines! The eyes down hitting targets coming i50 on at least 2 occasions! Something i've rarely seen from a Demon HB of late. Ty Mr Lumumba. Keep it up son. Love it.

Apologies to Gawn (who i thought won the first half soundly but was matched or beaten in large sections of 2nd half. Took some solid clunks though) Bugg, Wagner, Salem and Jetta

6. Viney was manic all day at the pill, continually got smashed but kept fighting through. 

5. Gawn continually clunked some grabs around the ground getting us out of trouble. God help us if he goes down.

4. Jetta. I simply loved him destroying Fasolo and his rebound is becoming first class. Continually kicks well from defence. 

3. Watts has to get in slotting four. 

2. N Jones. Bless his heart. 

1. Lumumba. Provided some fantastic run today and is finally lowering his eyes hitting targets. Got pinned a couple times also that frustrated but that's going to happen with how he plays

It was just sitting there waiting to happen. Plus with Oscar KO'd that might take a while.

This is so a Jack Watts thread! (but it doesn't quite look like what I'm used to?!)
