6 Viney - kept fighting and chasing all night and almost got us across line late.

5 May - Huge factor on Hipwood who killed us last time.

4 Gawn - scragged and maimed but kept trying his darndest

3 Oliver - A couple of woeful early kicks but his workrate was amazing

2 Lockhart - Clean when others weren't.  Intercepted courageously. What a game

1 Lever - Smart all night, even though he was less prominent than May.

Gawn was definitely in our best 6 tonight.  Position by position he was the only midfielder who wasn't beaten by his Brisbane counterpart over the entirety of the game.  Neale, Lyons, Zorko, McLuggage pretty much had their way tonight. Whilst it wasn't one of Max's stellar performances he was very good again.  Viney's effort was outstanding after half time and Oliver had his moments as well, despite some less than average disposal early. Tracc played just a game by his now lofty standards, just the one mark and no score. But as a group they lowered their colours.  I'll be really interested in the coaches view of this one.  I reckon a defender or two might pop up.

Not sure I agree with this. If you win the tap out but we lose the clearance then your effectiveness must be in question.

And for a ruckman if you only take three marks then I don't see how you feature in the votes ahead of guys that won their positions like Lever, May and probably Melksham...

Yes but there are 6 votes aren't there?  I agree May, Lever and Melksham were in the best 6 too. My point was that Gawn clearly wasn't beaten by his opponents and provided our midfield first use.  I think you'll find Goodwin agreed with me on this point in his presser.  Our mids were too fumbly and when the ball got loose the Brisbane mids tore us a new one.  That is not Gawn's fault.

6 Viney - massive game, great agility in tight

5 Oliver - settles after a couple of early errors

4 May - very solid

3 Gawn - didn’t get the marking, but still good

2 Langdon - underrated game imo

1 Petracca - quieter but still good

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.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. 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
