6. Hoges presented, ran his opponent ragged and brought teamates into the game 

5. Brayshaw - fantastic over 4 quarters and using the ball so well and strong at the clearances

4. Lever - very polished performance and very composed down back

3. Oliver - we take for granted what Clarrie does, he just does it with ease

2. Viney - Was typical JV hard at it and along with Clarrie Brayshaw and Max dominated the clearances

1. Nibbler - don't underestimate his running to create options and be vital as link up through transition.

Apologies to Bernie, Melksham, Hibberd, Jones and Jetta

    ............ and all of Lever, Oliver, Nibbler, Melksham and Vince could be added to that list, and not a single Demonlander would quibble!

    6 - Brayshaw - The guy gets better each week. Works so hard. This is what we waited for

    5 - Hogan - An impossible match up right now. Does damage anywhere.

    4 - Jones - Another Nathan Jones game. Rarely wastes a possession

    3 - Viney - Back in a big way, accelerating out of contests 20 contested possessions. Not 100% match fit yet but getting there. 

    2 - Hibberd - Always uses it. Responsible for many good plays off half back.

    1 - Lever - A man possessed! Frustrated Crows attacks repeatedly.

    A lot of guys were stiff. Maxy was sensational, would back him in against Simon Madden right now, Nibbler is back and lethal where it counts, and Milkshakes who is just a score involvement merchant.

    Not the best performance overall yet great at times. Bad errors mixed in with some great play so we still have room to improve even on today’s great win.

    In terms of real impact I saw it as:

    6. Hogan

    5. Hibbo

    4. Viney

    3. Lever

    2. Melksham

    1. ANB

    Bit surprised at Salem, thought he made lots of mistakes and disposed poorly.

    Salem was very effective in the first half especially linking up across the middle and half back.

    I would like to have fitted Lever in RTG because he played a top game under enormous pressure but jeez Clarrie just got such a shitload of the ball!

    He's a Romsey neighbour, isn't he?

    Chook, I am the consistent glass half full guy not the guy that is ecstatic one week and threatening to throw myself off a building the next if things go pear shaped. We were generally good today but better sides will make you pay more for skill errors then the Crows did today.

    Just out of interest the top 10 players statistically based on a weighted compilation of averages after Rnd 10 are....

    1.  Clarry  5.14 (weighted score)

    2.  Viney  4.37*

    3.  The Jones Boy  3.74

    4.  Lewis  3.69

    5.  Gus  3.54

    6.  T-Mac  3.52

    7.  Hogan  3.50

    8.  T Smith  3.41*

    9.  Gawn  3.19#

    10.  Harmes  3.10

    *Denotes only 2 matches played so far ie., very small sample size vs others shown.

    #Does not include hit outs to advantage, a stat specific to ruckman only.  Adding a token 0.75 to Maxy's result for example, would provide a more accurate picture of where he would likely be sitting if one was able to include the stat and somehow make it relative to the other scores.  That would put his score at approx 3.94 just behind Viney and technically at No.2 if you excluded Viney from the count having played only 2 matches so far vs 10 for Big Maxy.

    I think if we have a better than 10 goal win we should allow for some extra votes because it is for sure a team winning in style. BTW 7 points Goodwin.

    that said:

    Hogan-it was 28 degrees people,  and he ran like an Ethiopian and kicked straight and a few score assists. 

    Angus-how damaging is a player that can use both feet.

    Hibberd-(Lever as am alternate) early on this pair ruined every crow attack

    Clarry-(Gawn could just as easily sit here) Contest King

    Viney-the crows were scared of him.

    Jones-taken for granted, he is still a beast.

    finally... Jetta ANB Melksham are ripped off.

    Think i am going to google some SA newspapers and maybe the SA forum.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
