On days like this it seems like everyone will be giving different votes. 

6. Viney - when it was there to be won, he won it for us. Then went off and still was one of our leading ball getters. 

5. Gawn - dominated. Thought Currie did well, but Gawn just was dominant around the ground. 

4. Harmes - 14 to begin with and 3 goals. Finished with 26 and had 4 inside 50's. Sneaky rising star nom this week. 

3. N Jones - picked up where Viney left off. Great to see him dominate a game again. 

2. Hunt - his speed is seriously good. He is looking better and better as the year is going on. 

1. Bugg - 13 contensted possessions, lead these and top 2 for tackles and top for clearances. He is making this position his own.

6 - Tom Bugg -  and people say hes just a pest?    26 disposals, 7 tackles, 8 clearances, 7 inside 50's

5 - Clayton Oliver -  his handballs are like a work of art. He is the Mozart of contested disposals

4 - Nevilla Jetta - smashed anyone he played on

3 - Max Gawn -  brilliant again, even had 5 shots on goal for 2.3

2 -  Nathan Jones - a classic Jones performance

1 -  Jack VIney - set the tone in the 2nd half as he always does for us

 

Apologies -  the rest of the team

Gawn - It all starts here and can go forward and kick a goal.

Viney - Made  a big statement in the third quarter

Jones - There's a reason he's captain.

Harmes - Got a shitload of the ball and used it well.

Jetta - Does his job and more. Has guts.

Oliver - Cant believe I have to put  a kid in the votes.  He is a genuine  [censored]  brutal beast. Cant wait till he starts to shave!!

Unbelievably difficult this week...even more so as just watching on the telly not at the game.

 

6 - Gawn: he was immense all game

5 - Viney: I have always thought he could be our Joel Selwood...could he be better than Joel Selwood?

4 - Jetta: he's just about my favourite player, I love the way he plays and he's a player who's fought so hard

3 - Jones: it's always great when he's hitting the scoreboard, and that Gawn to Jones move inside 50 is sublime to see

2 - Harmes: his game for the club, he was a terrier defensively and just added huge hustle and bustle around packs

1 - Hunt: an attacking weapon off half-back, his speed and line-breaking is brilliant

 

last two spots could've been raffled btw Harmes, Hunt, Oliver and Petracca.

 

Oliver and Petracca are going to be lethal together. Exciting times.

6.  Gawn  -  Impossible to go past big Maxy imo.  He just had so much influence (gave our mids an armchair ride, kicked goals, took marks around the ground and always had a smirk on his face.

5.  N. Jones -  True captains' game.  Led from the front from start to finish.

4.  Viney  -  A powerhouse!.  Just keeps improving, and is becoming more and more damaging by hand and foot.  Probably pips Jonesy if he had played out the full game.

3.  Jetta  -  Steady as a rock, gutsy, composed under pressure, and never gives up.  Just a thoroughly good footballer.

2.  Harmes  -  Great comeback after being down last week.  How good is to have some depth to bring the best out of our boys?

1.  Hunt  -  Confidence is growing.  Blistering pace, hard at it and was very creative with the ball.  Based on today's game he might be the real deal!

Special mentions:  Oliver, Bugg, Pedersen

I want to give all the votes to Hunt, I thought his first half kept us in it.

6 - Gawn

5 - Jetta - how many one on ones did he win against all types?

4 - Hunt

3 - Jones

2 - Viney

1 - Harmes

Sorry Clarry and Petracca for leaving you out. Bugg and Wagner as well

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
