I've moved on from yesterday!  We didn't go all the way but we had some very fine performances over the three weks. 

Interested in who people think was our Mr September (across all three games).

My votes are (in Brownlow style):

  • 3   J. Viney
  • 2   N Jetta
  • 1  J Harmes

They were the most consistent - each had an exceptional game in at least one of the earlier finals and were the most likely to drag us out of the quagmire yesterday.  (Apologies to Weideman and T Mcdonald).

James Harmes for me.  Not only was he able to curb some of the best players in the game, but he also found his own footy and was damaging when going the other way.  He has turned into a very important part of our side and his improvement has been a joy to watch.

Jack Viney a very close second.

Oliver by a mile. 3 excellent games from the kid who was great from day 1 of the finals despite close atention. Agressive and gave as good as he got . Hugely advanced his reputation and no stage fright for one so young. Yesterday he was our best.

Harmes for me. Teams are going to focus on him a lot more next year. So hopefully he can deal with it.

Viney second.

Joint for Harmes & Viney for me, everyone lowered their colours in the West Coast game.

I would have said TMac before the game but he was a strong contender for WOG yesterday. 

Definitely Viney for me though. 

Pretty harsh on Tmac. Spent most of the prelim in the backline plugging holes and rucking.

I’d argue Mr September is a player that rises above their season form.

Viney and Oliver both incredible, but no more so than typical. Harmes and Brayshaw emerged in season. Trac is the player we all hope for.

1. Hibberd. Found the desperation.

2. Weid. The big surprise.

3. TMAC. First to stand tall.

On reflection and based only on the first two finals it was probably Weideman.

As No 10 says above my view of a Mr September is someone who goes to that next level.

I was hoping it would be Petracca who while having an okay first few finals didn't have that stellar lift in form.

Sidebottom at Collingwood and Martin last year are perfect examples of the elusive Mr September

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
