Who was our Mr September?

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.

    Neville the Jetta 3rd

    Harmes in my opinion. Very good in all three games.

    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.

    He is very overrated on this site.

    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

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
