Not the first time Cornes has left Oliver out when he should have been in there.  Another 10 coaches votes but thats not good enough for Kane.

Hes got something against him.

    Thought Hogan's game was good but not at that level.

    Brayshaw and Oliver far more dominant.

    Pleased to see Salem getting recognition.

    I'm comfortable with Hogan being selected given that a number of the big name forwards had quiet weeks - 22 disposals, 10 marks and 4 goals is a huge game for a key forward, notwithstanding the quality of opposition.

    The omission of Oliver is laughable.

    Hogan is is fair enough. I know there were some good games from mids but Clarry had to be in surely.

    Oliver is clearly becoming a victim of his own high standards. He was BOG by a mile.

    Spot on. Even had us winning the flag at one stage during the year. Fast becoming a Melbourne fan boy.

    Salem has just been going about his business quietly but his distribution from the back line, especially with Hibberd missing, has been critical to us. Defensively maybe needs to improve but offensively he’s been fantastic. 

    Hogan stepped up in Melkshams absence as both a distributor and finisher.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
