6. Hunt- He tried all game, and keeps getting better. Being the house that the wolves can easily blow down didn't deter him

5. Petracca- One of few who read the ball forward of centre. So chunky but knows how to move with it.

4. Vince- Was the usual kicking machine. Not sure if he actually played well or the no.23 made him look like it

3. Gawn- Was always gonna always dominate the ruck, wasn't an amazing game but made few errors. Disappointingly little umpire banter.  

2. Jones- I dunno why he's in the votes. Habit maybe? His brother won this family battle however.

1.Watts- Was shown in frame a lot. If this were a movie he'd be a main actor. That said the stream was kind of blurry so at least I think I saw him near the ball a lot. He won't be getting an Oscar though, that goes to repeat offenders on the ducking front and the only Oscar on our team isn't held in as high stead. But without a doubt it is Jack's best season to date, although we were left wanting a couple through the sticks from the man a Collingwood fan coined "Mrs Watts" from standing room last Monday.

I certainly only saw bits of the game but I find it interesting to observe that in a game against a very mature battle hardened side in awfully challenging  conditions Hunt and Wagner appear frequently in the posters' assessment of better players on this site. 

Would anyone in their wildest dreams have thought that this could happen prior to the season?

Good recruiting, great development.  Hats off to those departments.  Now on to a reformation of the selection panel.

I didn't watch the game so only going off the demonland votes but Hunt seems have polled exceptionally well. In such a wet slog I would have expected bigger bodied players with more experience and much longer time in the system (gym) to do well.

6 Vince (hard and prolific as usual but almost all of the side didn't create much, but didn't stop trying).

5 Gawn (Clearly one of our few winners on the day, although understandably didn't mark well)

4 Hunt (Loved his chase down on Heeney on the boundary. Made a few errors, but didn't they all. But broke lines when he got it.)

3 T-Mac (Why is it that so many here, judge him so poorly each week. He played mainly on Franklin, who got on the end of a few as you'd expect when he's plonked in the goal square for much of it).

2 Watts (Classy second half and showed that it was possible to kick the ball 45m accurately like the Sydney players often did).

1 Jones (Toss up here with Petracca, but he did lift after half time with Vanders).

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
