Demonland Player of the Year - Round 2

Demonland
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

6 - Salem (was great when we needed him to be)

5 - Oliver (terrific again especially in the 1st & last quarters)

4 - T-Mac (solid all day and set up a lot of attacks)

3 - Jetta (was very good all day)

2 - Garlett (3 goals and was a danger to their defence throughout)

1 - Jones (lifted when required)

Others who could have featured include Tyson (prolific) ,  Harmes (hard at it),  Hunt (used his pace well),  Stretch & Watts were also good at times. 

It's also interesting to note the players who could have ordinarily been expected to receive votes ... Gawn,  Lewis,  Hogan,  Viney,  Petracca & Brayshaw.  Gawn actually played quite well but we're now expecting him to dominate.

    6.  Salem  -  hard, courageous and sublime skills.  He arrived today!

    5.  Jones  -  consistent ball winner in the clinches and used it well .  Great leadership

    4.  Oliver  -  prolific, but skills a bit off compared to last week.

    3.  Jetta  -  tough and unrelenting.  Neat disposal.

    2.  Garlett  -  sharp and quick and developing his defensive game

    1.  TMac  -  very reliable and used it well

    6 Salem (Wow what a first half and kept tackling and hitting targets by foot all day).

    5 Jones (reliable, kicked goals and broke lines with his kicking)

    4 T-Mac (I know the zone means he didn't have Weitering all the time, but when he did, it was man v boy)

    3 Garlett (I bet he loved fixing up his old side - Will Docherty ever recover?)

    2 Watts (Timid early but once he got into the ruck his confidence grew and he is still the best kick in the side)

    1 Jetta (How about the bump on Kreuzer. He was brill all day with his attack on the ball)

    Sorry Clayton but you were a cancer early going backwards almost every time you got it and when it comes to the key stat you lost 10-5 in clearances to Cripps. Don't worry i still rate you as the most likely superstar in our side, but you have legs, you can kick and you can go forward some times and take responsibility for setting up our offence.

    In line with something I posted in the Oliver thread, it is ridiculously over the top to describe Oliver's game as a cancer. Reckon we'd have been better off without his 35 disposals and 9 tackles do you?

    6. Salem - clearly BoG

    5. Jones - very clean with the ball

    4. Oliver - clearance king

    3. Tyson - got better as the game went on

    2. Garlett - lots of important moments

    1. Watts - kicked a couple and set up a handful

    5. Jetta

    4. Oliver

    3. Tyson (would have been higher but for too many errant disposals, particularly early)

    2. T McDonald

    1. Garlett

    If Watts' second and third quarters were like his first or last he would have been high up in the votes.

    I realise that everyone has opinions but leaving Jetta out of the best six is ridiculous.

    Not really. I never do votes until I have a chance to watch the replay so I might change my mind, but at the game I felt Jetta was good, but I didnt have him in the best. (my best are actually very close to @demon9). Just because he plays his role doesnt mean he gets a spot in the best every week, seems some just add him in because everyone loves him. His value to the team is undeniable! but it's not a crime to have him out of the best doesn't automaticly mean we think he is the worst. Really I think Oscar played his role just as well as jetts did, I dont see a single vote for him. People seem to look for the best in Jetta and the worst in Oscar. 
    (For the record I wouldn't have Oscar in the best, but I dont think he was worse than Jetta)

    Agree on Jetta. Due to our larger midfield brigade getting back, Jetta is getting a lot of uncontested possessions and intercept marks as he doesn't have to stay strictly on his man. This gives the appearance that he's having a blinder where he's actually more just like a loose man in defense. Still a good consistent player and definitely in the top 8 players for us yesterday.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
