    ANB will poll very well based on his important team role the coaches ask him to play

    Top 5; Gawn, Oliver, T McDonald, Brayshaw and Jetta

    It is interesting how many defenders win club B&F's in successful seasons. Internally, voting is often so different to Brownlow or media awards. But our top three will probably be -

    1. Gawn

    2. Brayshaw

    3. Oliver

    Jetta will poll well, along with Harmes, Tmac,  ANB and Melksham.

    I think Salem's year has been very underrated and he'll be top half dozen in the Bluey!

    Lewis? Surprised me the votes he got last year.  Surprising if he is top 5 this year

    Was our best intercept player for the year (with Lever out) and a fair way ahead of any other defender in terms of score involvements.

    Turnovers diabolical at times and easily exposed on a fast counter against anyone with pace but wasn't alone there.  An area we really need to focus on solving next year (Hunt back to some decent form and applying some extra ground ball pressure / Other via draft or trade?).

    Racked up 21 out of a possible 23 matches so has the potential to get a reasonable poll total to push up the table.

    OLiver and Gawn the clear stand outs. Gawn was clearly out best player this year in my opinion

    Interesting thing for me is how high Salem, Trac, Harmes, melky etc finish.

    Jones, Lewis and Tmac will all poll in the top-ten with at least one in the top five. It's just how these things work.

    Peter Jackson will finish with mfc at the end of the month ?  ?

    He has done so much for us and deserves so much praise and appreciation.  Hope Bartlett and the Board have a special send off for him tonight with fans, staff and sponsors in attendance who I am sure would want to share in the thanks.

    If Hogan is leading the Bluey at round 11, I wonder if we might revise our offer?

    he would have to be top 3 you'd imagine?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
