6 - Gawn - did everything but win the game. 

5 - Trac - could have been bigger if he wasn’t sent forward after Taylor’s injury 

4 - Clarry - showed he was in the company of Selwood and Ablett for a good part of the game. Not all, but a good part. 

3 - Hogan - key forwards kick big goals. He needs a friend though. 

2 - Jones - we came back when he told us too. He put us on his shoulders. 

1 - I’m struggling here. Harmes was great in the 3rd. ANB bobbed up. Fritch had a solid first game. I’ll go with Harmes but now I know why we lost. Where were our other players????

Gawn dominated the ruck but he doesn’t deserve full votes for missing the most gettable shot. He’s played for long enough and should nail those. No excuse. 

6- Trac

5- Oliver

4- Hogan 

3- Gawn 

2- Jones 

1- Omac

6 Max Gawn - Sure we wanted more from the hitouts, but Smith spent all day trying to negate him and Max was a clear winner.

5 Christian Petracca - unbelievable first term and mega dangerous in third as a forward. Based on that is top tier.

4 Clayton Oliver - obviously he's had a tricky couple of weeks getting over his knee knock, but god it was great watching him do his work at clearances and his kicks forward were generally more dangerous than our other midfielders.

Clear gap to the rest and we all can make a case for just about anybody from here.

3 James Harmes - just loved his attack on the footy and his third term when he moved on to Ablett and hurt him going the other way. But I'm sure he won't want to see a replay of his missed pass to Hannan in the last down the AFL members wing - it was mega costly.

2 Nathan Jones - he just kept working, but as with many mates, struggled to hit enough targets. 

1 Bernie Vince - really lifted with Harmes and Wags and Lever in the third and that charge was inspirational stuff. Did Goody err in not having him for a stint on Ablett and Selwood? Maybe.

Those voting for Jones have got no idea.

Thank you for your tick of approval. Jones was huge in the 3rd helping us get back into the game. Not just his ability to find the ball, but he was also directing traffic and coaching out there. Something that our other 2 leaders in Vince and Lewis didnt do much of at all today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
