    No other votes. Sick of f*cking losing, and the guys above were the only ones who put in today.

    As for Salem, repeatedly crumples under pressure in important moments.

    Vandenburg, No no no

    got a lucky goal.  Constantly outmatched and outmarked by Allir. Fell over. Several missed tackles. Not the worst but not in the best

    Just got back.  Interesting spread of votes.  I thought Oliver was great in the second half, Frost had a great first half and did some good stuff in the second.  Salem was good all day as was Harmes.  Brayshaw solid enough and Tyson was good.  I thought Jones was poor with both decision making and skill.  Spargo will be good player but he isn't up to it yet; Hunt and Jeffy both pretty average.  Gawn is just so dominant it's hard to believe our mids don't make more of it.

    2 - Frost (I thought he did really well tbh, at no stage did I think Franklin was beating him. When Franklin got on top it was through their slick ball movement and our inability to cut his leads off)
    1 - Tyson

    I've got no idea how you could draw this conclusion from today. I thought he was outstanding and one of the few who stood up at all critical moments.

    No way.

    Yes, he kicked three goals. But his inability to compete with Aliir was a huge reason why they got on top. He couldn't beat him one-on-one, he couldn't block or body him, he couldn't get to the contests and he couldn't stop the rebound. I thought he was really, really poor (but yes, the three goals were important).

    Usually too [censored] off to give votes after a game like but some efforts deserve recognition even after what the yanks call a cluster [censored] like that.

    Harmes . a terrific all round game. took it on when needed and battled all day.

    Clarrie. tagged but still got plenty of it. forgive his kicking

    Brayshaw. See harmes above.

    It gets tougher now

    Omac.  Did what he had to and played with some composure

    Salem. Tried and showed his class

    Vanders. Far from perfect but he was played as a forward and kicked 3 .

    6 Salem - Cleanest of our ball users all day and is now our most trusted defender. Hope his run in middle late was out of desperation and not something we will try at start next week.

    5 Harmes - Love how everyone now realises how important he is. However his job was to stop Josh Kennedy for much of the day. If I was giving Brownlow votes it was 3 Heeney, 2 Salem 1 Kennedy, Harmes or Lloyd.

    4 Tyson - fantastic second quarter and constant provider of drive from his wing. Opponent Hannebery did get it a bit too much though. 

    3 T.Mac - He missed a couple early as nerves took hold of side but came back later to nail a couple, including the one from outside 50m which was a gem.

    2 Brayshaw - what a first term, although ultimately unable to hugely impact scoreboard. 

    1 Petracca - Handy as marking outlet up the line, but looked more dangerous than he actually was.

    Olly and Jones - had their moments but their kicking was down compared to normal.

    All other players drifted in and out of it, including our favourite big fella.

    Quarter one was stock standard, 2-4 were finals like and that’s where the better players shone through.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
