Have you ever seen a better performance from a Full Back? Maybe a handful of Scarlett games. 


6 May

5 Langdon

4 Petracca

3 Lever

2 Hibberd

1 Oliver

Beats his opponent and wins the footy and rebounds 

5 Lever - great marks  and spoils and smart tonight

4 Petracca - his goals were the difference. Gd looked cooked and out of sorts but willed himself on 

3 Langdon- run and run and run and wins the footy, an excellent game 

2 Rivers - showed maturity beyond his years, smart and composed and quick and skilled 

1 Salem - important possessions and good run, he is very important 

apologies to Weid Clarry, Maxy and Hibbo until injured.

Apologies to Rivers.  That second half was a beauty from the 5th game rookie.

Good games from Wagner and Hibbo (until injured).   


6. Oscar (by a fair margin)

5. OMac

4. Oscar McDonald

3. May (but only coz Oscar was there to make him look good)

2. TMac for being the brother who got us OMac

1. The rest of the team can share this point (for all being aboard the OMac train)

Oliver and Viney unlucky not to get votes from me. Viney did a great job on steele after half time and Oliver was a bull at the stoppages all day long. Richard Wagner was actually fairly good on return after being a bit fumbly early.

Somewhat surprised that the Weid is so far down the list.  Is one of the form forwards of the comp and his contribution to team structure has been very important to us.  Perhaps another case of awards voting not being a true reflection of player value.

He’s averaging around two goals a game but every week he’s more or less at that average and he’s also having a lot of games where he’s out of the action for periods which isn’t conducive to getting the big voting scores.

6. May

5. Petracca

4. Langdon (great either end of the ground)

3. Salem (composed game)

2. Gawn (back line intercept marks)

1. Viney (for his tag on Steele)

 

The whole back line played well, OMac, Lever, Hibberd, Rivers, even Jones.

I also thought that Spargo, Melky, Brown and Weid, all had important touches or moments. Pickett will be fantastic, creates uncertainty for the opposition. 

That last half of football was the most intense and strong willed from Melbourne that I can remember.  Not greatly skilled perhaps but what a game, and we won a close one....

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
