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.

6 - Harmes
5 - Salem
4 - Brayshaw
3 - Oliver
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.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
