The rest were deplorable and again embarrased themselves the club and the few supporters that still watch them

Oliver doesn't exactly deserve a vote but there's no one else and he at least continued to put his body on the line through the four quarters. His kicking was deplorable though.

Cannot find anyone else to give even 1 vote to

6 - Oscar - You knew from the first play when he ducked back behind his man to allow Georgiades space to run forward that this was his night. The comical stuff from the slowest player in the league continued when he avoided making a play just outside the goalsquare  in the third term.

5 Pickett - Goody loves this guy and it's not hard to see why. Two goals in six games since the break - the same as Cody Weightman - except that's right, Cody was rested. Why. Perhaps Goody could ask Bevo why it's best to temper your excitement with a new toy.

4 Jackson - Action Jackson was everywhere and nowhere. Another kid who needed a break. But no we'll play him against the top side for his development.

3 Oliver - A week off via the tribunal will deprive all of us his exquisite kicking skills and also his favourite game of setting up a mate with a 2m handball. Best thing for him at moment is to sit up in the coaches box and see how a game flows.

2 Brayshaw - The world's best wingman with amazing leg-speed. No wonder the coach won't play him in the middle.

1 Hannan -  Another who needed a break after a fumbly game against Brissy, but go figure. Let's play him again.

While these guys were all eye-catching, the blame falls way more on the coach for not having read the signs that a four-day break might actually require some changes with fresh players.

As evidenced by my votes, I reckon our defense stood up reasonably well, given the speed and frequency that the ball was coming in.

Agree - it wasn’t the defence.  It’s the ridiculous skill errors by our midfield.  All of them.

Very very tempted to bunk this one off. However this is a serious award and deserves serious effort unlike what the boys served up.

6. Hibbo. Purely for touching that kick on the line to save us from another laughing stock blooper to add to the ever-growing MFC reel. At least he showed desperation at times.

I honestly couldn't find 6 players who held their own last night. One of the worst performances I have seen, an absolute train wreck.

AFL website report says Dees best were May, Salem, Gawn and Hibberd. Salem ???  They must have watched a different game. He put other teammates under pressure , missed tackles and went half stepped at the footy. Got caught too often.  Metres gained 150. 

6. Gawn (although nowhere near his best game)

5. May

4. Hibberd

2. Lever

1. Salem (but what has happened to his kicking? Or, in BT speak, his ability as the "best distributor of the ball"?)

It wasn't easy finding those six. The rest were shambolic, except for Sparrow who I considered for the last vote.

Salem was garbage last night. The writer must have like his bleached hair because he literally did nothing all night.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
