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)

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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
