    Also good solid efforts by Hannan, Tyson, and Nibler.

    Ps forgot Omac couple of bad turnovers early but had a decent game after. The Omac haters will just focus on the turnovers but he wasn't Robinson Crusoe there

    Well said re: OMac

    Worthy mentions to the two Mac's, Viney, Oliver and Hunt - if only he nailed that on the run shot on goal in Q4!

    Apologies to Hunt, Salem, OMac.

    Petracca and Watts the high votes for match winning efforts. Jones was probably for all 4 qtrs same with Hibbo.

    Surprised so many have rated Watts' game over Oliver's.

    We were getting belted in the clearances in the first half and Oliver was one of the keys for us in getting the ascendancy in that area in the second half.

    His last quarter was fantastic. With enormous pressure, fatigued bodies and a greasy ball, he was one of the few who could cleanly pick it up off the deck in traffic and get the ball going forward for us.

    As for Watts, I thought it was more of a "moments" game from him, especially the last quarter goal and then the touched ball on the line. He was also on Howe in the first half and was beaten. I'm not saying he didn't contribute, he had a decent game and did well to come back from an early injury. And no doubt his class in the key moment in the last quarter was telling.

    But for me it was the turnaround in the contest and at the stoppages (and then the run from guys like Hunt) that turned the game around and Oliver was a big part of this.

    Hunt has the run, he has to learn to not just drop bombs: he needs to fire straight darts.

    And here are the Coaches' votes. I had Jones as best on ground so clearly one or more of us has a bit to learn.

    MELBOURNE v COLLINGWOOD
    10 Christian Petracca (Melb)
    4 Jeremy Howe (Coll)
    4 Steele Sidebottom (Coll)
    4 Clayton Oliver (Melb)
    4 Adam Treloar (Coll)
    3 Nathan Jones (Melb)
    1 Michael Hibberd (Melb)

    Oliver with votes from 8 games out of 11.

    And every time in those 8 matches he's been awarded votes from both coaches.  I can't be bothered trying to work it out, but I'm virtually certain he would have again considering the breakup of votes for QB.

    The players with 4 votes each must have been 4-0, 0-4, 2-2 and 3-1 (or 1-3). So, without going to any other sources such as comments made in media conferences, there's a 50% chance he got votes from both coaches. And a 50% chance he didn't.

    Four players on four votes means that at least one of them was 4-0. The others could be 2-2, 3-1, 1-3 or 0-4. This gives Oliver a better than 50% chance to have been given votes by both coaches.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      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 final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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?
