78.9% in disposal efficiency
4th in disposals
3rd in meters gained
3rd in tackles

You must have really high standards for him, I thought he played well and gave him a couple votes

I have Salem in for 1 vote. He showed a lot more endeavour and his kicks went forward and not sideways and short.  I don’t rate disposals efficiency for him sometimes because of the short sideways chip kicks but he was much better on Saturday night. His goal late in the 3rd quarter was crucial and brought us back into the game.  A step forward.

A lot of people giving votes to Salem, it was one of his worst games for a while apart from his goal.

Rubbish a good game frommChrisyian

yeah he is not a favourite of many around here. 

he has contributed a lot more than Melksham and others above him, but admittedly no stand out games

was amazed to see the Herald Sun opinion that Pickett was best on ground, a decision not shared by anyone here.

 

Don't quite know about best on, but Kosie did get our team high for score involvements apparently (don't know if that includes his two fairly ordanary misses?).  I do recall him being pretty good in that passage where he did the old one/two handball through the centre of the ground, but don't explicitly recall any others.  Perhaps he is the kind of player who can't be judged on possession numbers alone, but I think he's still a fair way off ripping open games on his own.  You can see the potential, but I'm finding watching him a bit of a frustrating tease at times.

Agree.  But I think it reflects that he's been good most games, but not great in many.

I did think he was quite good around the ground generally against the Giants and did kick a timely goal for us under pressure in the second half.

However, while it's true he's our leading goal kicker,  he's  also kicked more behinds than goals, which for a specialist forward isn't great and I suspect people mark him down for that.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
