I don’t have the energy to pick 6 but I would have Frost in if I did.


 

Anyone who can find 6 good players probably were lucky enough to find an unguarded  case of beer by the 10 min mark!

But to put up 6 names I'll go with:

Frost

Pruess 

Brayshaw

Jones

Jetta

Melskam

But this is really about who did something good rather than who played well

 


6.  Salem

5.  Frost

4.  Harmes

3.  Hore

2.  Viney

1.  Gawn (& not for his ruckwork!  Competed ok otherwise but still not the same dominant Big M of recent years so far)

 

6 - Salem

5 - Harmes

4 - Frost

3 - Oliver

2 - Gawn

1 - Hore

Our bottom 9 were worse than their bottom 9 by a long shot..................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. Gus - Our best mid by a mile today

5. Frosty - Our best back by a mile today

4. Salem - Continues his good form.

3. Viney - Fought like hell while being held without the ball, roughed up and generally scragged at every opportunity.

2. Oliver - Got a lot of the ball.  Tackled hard.  Set up that opening goal with a pass that was pure [censored]. 

1. Preuss - He's doing what we need him to do, providing a tall target forward and rucking a bit.  Even put in a few nice tackles. 

 

6. Brayshaw

5. Salem

4. Frost

3. Oliver

2. Viney

1. Hore

Put myself through the replay last night to check if my eyes weren't deceiving me and came up with following.

6 Salem - Our only defender who regularly laid a tackle.

5 Brayshaw - our only midfielder with the confidence to go forward - unlike Clayton who looks as if he is in fear of being tackled and flicks it off sideways/backwards nearly every time.

4 Frost - The critics won't like it but there were no major howlers and he worked really hard on Bruce (two marks).

3 Petracca - Yes he made mistakes, but he was our only lively forward all day and the only one who looked dangerous even if he ballsed it up on occasions.

2 Hore - Plenty of intercepts and in general safe with his kicking.

1 Viney - Huge first half trying to lift the guys.

Preuss had some memorable moments early but faded again and big Max spanked Marshall, but the stat that worries me was just 11 pressure points.

5 Brayshaw - our only midfielder with the confidence to go forward - unlike Clayton who looks as if he is in fear of being tackled and flicks it off sideways/backwards nearly every time.

4 Frost - The critics won't like it but there were no major howlers and he worked really hard on Bruce (two marks). - - -  has some speed, - has a go

3 Petracca - Yes he made mistakes, but he was our only lively forward all day and the only one who looked dangerous even if he ballsed it up on occasions. - only player who has had some Acid applied to him over Pre - season

2 Hore - Plenty of intercepts and in general safe with his kicking. - a player worth watching, to see how he goes

1 Viney - Huge first half trying to lift the guys. - playing under duress

Preuss had some memorable moments early but faded again and big Max spanked Marshall, but the stat that worries me was just 11 pressure points. - gives some hope... but needs to do a lot of 2019 in-season, away from club distance running... to work his engine overtime.  He needs to be  MUCH  fitter for 2020.

 

 slow is out Now with 666.  unless they have special skills.

Tom Mc and the Weid  zero points after 5 games, yet  huge no of inside 50’s in a number of our games. Don’t get how they couldn’t have 1 point with nearly a quarter of the season gone. Something fishy going on. TMac injured? Weid already got at?

6. Salem

5. Harmes

4. Hore

3. Oliver

1. Gawn

Mention to Fritsch. In a backline that is almost always on red alert he uses it every single time.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
