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.

My main criticism of Viney, gets it tries to break every tackle under the sun... Loses it and..

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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
