    Very hard to allocate votes when I feel gutted and we had so many passengers, but:

    6.  Hogan:  a standout.  We would have been obliterated without him.

    5.  Jones:  a warrior, but Viney aside, he had very little help around the stoppages.

    4.  Viney:  see Jones.  They can't do it all on their own.

    3.  Watts:  worked hard and did a few nice things in a team that was well beaten.  He would have been one of the first to go missing 12 months ago.

    2.  Gawn:  probably just broke even with Hickey.

    1.  Kennedy: a trier, and bobbed up a bit.

    6 - Hogan - do I need to give a reason. 

    5 - Viney - his 3rd term should have turned the game if the others came along. 

    4 - Jones - I love that when we play bad he just comes out and leads by example. 

    3 - Watts - presented well - where has his marking gone though. 

    2 - Tyson - rounding out a really good centre clearance team. 

    1 - Gawn - was below his par but above par for any other ruck. 

     

    My worry with the votes is that our centre 4 and our 2 tall forwards are coming up in the votes again and again. I don't think we are getting enough from the others around the ground.

    1. Gawn in the absence of anyone else. Refuse to give Tyson a vote for his junk-time possies.

    Everyone seemed tired.   IMO Gawn is easily the main reason we're doing better this year, but if we don't get serious help in for him soon, I predict he'll go down injured and we'll be seriously screwed.

     Peder/Frost give Max a break, but they also give the opposition rucks a break because they're easy to ruck against.

      Shouldn't have traded Stef Martin.  I'm not a Spencer fan at all, but he needs to practice goal kicking like crazy & replace Peder/Frost.  He'll hurt & tire the opposition when rucking,  so the opposition will have less energy to battle Max, Max will perform better and be more likely to survive without injury.

    Our back 6 has been unfairly maligned after this game. We just need to show intensity around the ball otherwise it makes our attacking press look really stupid.

    I reckon they'll ring in the changes a week late but with the longer break, I hope they give the same blokes a shot at redemption.

    No team can maintain two All-Australian level ruckmen and both Gawn and Martin seem to be the type of guys that thrive on their own

    Dean Cox and Nik Nat?

  • Quote

    Maybe. Nik Nat was a bit of an unknown quantity at that stage. Martin and Gawn are both in their prime, it would be virtually impossible to maintain.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
