    It is not only Clarry, I also think Jones suffers for votes being taken for granted, his composure around the ball, I swear my back gets a bit straighter when he picks it up but haven't put him in votes for ages.

    Your right - Jones is the reason Others are doing so well - standing  up in the first possession for advantage this guy is a serious grunt player who can do It all . I had him best on last week for his influence around the stoppage.

    Anyone else find it hard to know where to rate Gawns performances? He is so consistently outstanding now it just seems like an average game from him. 20 touches, 4 contested marks, 5 tackles, 2 assists, dominates the hit outs. 

    His hit outs weren’t to advantage (clearances) and his kicking lets him down, another shocker at goal today, already cost us one game, please don’t let it be a final

    Better late than never...

     

    6: Jetta - by a mile, what a game

    5: Oliver - can't take him for granted

    4: Brayshaw - in amazing form at the moment, love his ability to kick either side of his body

    3: Hogan - having a ripper year and in the hunt for the coleman

    2: TMac - we are a much better team with him in it

    1: Gawn - could have been higher if not for his kicking, particularly that one at goal 

     

    Fritsch unlucky

    Salem and Lewis were both effective off half back

    Melksham did well to battle on despite injury

    Ignore my earlier votes, I watched the replay and I would have Jetta as BOG.

    That was a masterclass by him.  You would show that game to a young kid on how to play the game.

    It's rally hard to see what Oliver does at the ground but on replay and tv you see these amazing little touches, gathers, knocks, gives, that win us the ball but also lots of little defensive efforts through body position, tackling, ball control on the ground and a bit of close checking that make it hard for the opposition to get the contested possession and clearance as well.  So subtle and underrated. 

    A bit like trying to decipher a rugby union scrum: lots of by play between the props and there is alway a reason one side is dominating the scrum but it isn't obvious to the outsider/ viewer.

    Agree. I thought he’d been well held. His work in traffic was lightening and clean. He plays the game at a speed few find possible.

    SF - maybe you are suggesting a few weeks at Casey (a) as punishment and (b) for development.  Pity the development league isn't there any more.  :-(

    I haven't seen the game so I won't give votes, but I did listen to the 3AW call and I'm pleased that they raved over Jetta's game and consistently said he should be the All-Australian small defender.

    In what world does Tom Bugg have double the points as Jack Viney? Both played 3 games. It probably shows how well the team has played since Viney's return.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
