Can't give a vote to Petracca - did he hit a target all night?

    I'm surprised at the love for Langdon.  His man got away from him in their 50 repeatedly and in return he missed his chances in attack for us.

    He worked his a... off all night covering for his teammates who didn't show.

    The 3rd Q it looked like the Swans v Langdon, the kid tried to get us back in the game but had to carry way too many.

    He worked hard, he got lots of ball and lots of ground, but in terms of the scoreboard, his contribution is basically the winning margin for the Swans.  His man kicked two goals (from uncontested marks) and set up two others.  Langdon missed two set shots, one of which resulted in a goal to the swans, and had no assists.  He's not alone in that by any means.  Jones cost us two goals and plenty of other people missed easy shots, but I do factor it into my assessment of his game.

    I’m still too angry to vote. Weakest bunch of ?

    May I join you in your anger. I also feel too angry to vote! What a shame it’s come to this!

    I should add I feel dirty giving Langdon and Gawn votes of the same value as given to May and Petracca last week.

    I'm sure it's been discussed before, but maybe the Demonland POTY could adopt a different voting methodology next year? My suggestion would be to keep the concept of top 6 players, but instead of an automatic, unweighted 6/5/4/3/2/1, change to a score out of 10 for each of those players. For example, last week I might have given May 10 and Petracca 9 (and the other four players probably scores between 5 and 7). For last night's game, I would have given Langdon 6, Gawn 4, May 4, Neal-Bullen 3, Oliver 3, and Tomlinson 2.

    And the coaches agree with Demonland.  Only Langdon and Gawn polled in the AFLCA votes.  3 to Ed and 1 to Max.  6 Swans players scored votes which is no surprise at all.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
