How good was the way Matisse Stynes spoke? At 16 she spoke with poise to a massive audience, she did her dad proud.

    And to think no other club wanted Dusty last time he was ooc.

    We overlooked him on draft night, didn't try to get him a couple of years ago. 

    Great.

    She speaks well like her father did.

    Yep, remember that.  Roos seemed very keen early then did a severe back pedal.  Someone obviously got into his ear - unfortunately.

    We lost to Freo in the last 30 seconds and 2 points.  Freo players got 3,2,1. Really fun)($d system clearly.  

    Oliver still unknown to the umps 

    Same could be said for West Coast when we beat them.

    It's beyond depressing

    There is a book written on the Demons last 10 years, is there a full chapter written on Dustin??

    She was the best presenter, the rest were quite awkward. A beautiful young lady, Jim would be so proud.

    Probably because Oliver was handballing it to them all the time. Can't believe how poorly he polled.

    I think the umpires need to get to know him and his style.  It's no coincidence that the better known players tend to poll better and young guys tend to be largely overlooked.

    Dusty's awesome, but whey're lucky to have Petracca. He's a similar player.

    Are the mark and goal of the year voted on by the public or just the AFL?

    The public vote, then the AFL decides who wins...

    Could be yes. He has a long way to go

    I am glad Oliver didn't poll as well as he should have. Will be better odds next year. I think Dusty, Kelly, Oliver and Fyfe. Winner probably comes within those 4. The quality of talent around at present is insane. Martin is as good a mid as I've seen, and he should get better. It will take a very special player to beat him next year (Martin is only improving). Oliver, Kelly and Fyfe are all unique talents.

    Bruce and Daisy reading the club by club votes. Channel 7 displaying the club vote boards. Gets to hawthorn and then goes straight to North Melbourne. They bumble and then come back to tell Dees board. Pretty obvious that we are considered irrelevant hahha. I mean seriously, no vision all nighy..the lowest votes of any club but Carlton. No vision in the highlights package.

    And here I am, only knowing who Matt Priddis is on Brownlow night when he started polling well and i googled him.

    Tmac getting 9 votes as a forward. I think that's where he plays now, he just doesn't seem to have it as a defender.

    Swan was clearly given free reign to say whatever he felt with the betting company’s account, and attendees felt the brunt of it at times.

    You know what Clayton Oliver would be if he wasn’t a footballer? A virgin. #Brownlow

    What would Dane Swan be if he wasn't a footballer? Inmate 657.

    Oscar definitely doesn't have it as a defender.

    Not far from the truth, a truth of which most people who think he's a knockabout top block, have either forgotten or are too young to remember:

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
