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.

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
