DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - Round 5


Demonland

Recommended Posts

6. Gawn - Absolute beast. Set up our offense. Gawn shows the true value of a quality ruckman, his tap work is invaluable.

5. Viney - Grunt work exceptional. Second and third efforts didn't go unnoticed, an absolute bull, a real leader of men.

4. Garlett - Forward pressure amazing, ability to kick goals when we need them - impressive. Any other day he would be BOG, top 2 had amazing days.

3. Tyson - Massive day today. Tyson is capable of big days, he is levels above his recent output, and today shown that. Great game, more of it plz.

2. Vince - Classy performer, tough as nails.

1. Kent - Continues to impress, ooozes potential - starting to deliver.

 

Honorable mentions - Hunt, Bugg, improved game from Salem, Jetta steady. TMAC stiff to miss the votes.

6 Viney - what a second half, was absolutely amazing, which makes it 3 x BOGs so far by my count

5 Gawn - awesome first half where he was everywhere

4 Tyson - contemplated giving him 6 because he was god for 4 quarters, but couldn't ignore the sheer impact of the above 2

3 Garlett - one of my favourites, took his chances and and makes defences nervous

2 Kent - that is now a consistent 3 week block where he has impacted games throughout, rather than just small cameos

1 McDonald - cut off so many attacks with some great intercept marking, but was let down by some poor disposal

I was a little too "tired" to post last night but here' s my view from the good seats

Max Gawn. Simply a colossus 

Viney. As usual a powerhouse in and around the contested ball

Garlett. Kicked 4 and had a hand in another 4.  A key member of the team.

T Mac. Strong marking and provided a real barrier in defence

Vince  Classy always and a good finisher. Also provides a bit of mongrel

Tyson's more even effort just pips JW for my final vote

Interesting...

Two years ago it would have been:

6:.Jones

5: er gee who else can I think of

etc. etc.

Now- Where's Jonsey? Mind you he was OK but as shown above we now have a team of contributors and not a one man team!

6 - Viney - he is in AA form at the moment and was just a beats at every contest, he loves the jumper and the club and it shows, he is the leader this club has been crying out for

5 - Gawn -dominant around the ground and imposed himself seems to have the belief in himself and IMO just behind Goldy and ahead of Mummy as the leagues best ruckman

4 - Tyson - best game he has played for the club and an upgrade on his 2014 form

3 - Garlett - 4 goals isn't all he done his harassment and heat at the drop of the ball created uncertainty in with the Tigers defenders throughout the game, glad we got him right before bringing him back in  

2 - Vince - had the experience and poise at vital moments when the Toiges were coming I don't care that we gave up pick 20 for him, he has been invaluable to the club and to the development of Viney

1 - Kent -  gut running, hard chases and good decision making which is something if he does consistently will make him the player he can be

And where is Hogan when we kick over twenty goals like last night?

1.  Viney - four quarter effort and willed us to victory in the last.

2.  Gawn - exceptional first half

3.  Tyson - goal kicking mids are gold.

4.  Vince - silk

5.  Garlett - creative

6.  Salem - terrific first half and good second half.  Creative use by hand and precise kicking.  Very good decision maker and hurts the opposition when he gets it.  Underrated game.

Apology:  T Mac.  He would almost have been BOG but his turnovers hurt.  Just misses a spot in the six.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
