    Ranked 267 in the AFL for average disposals.

    Ranked 165 for average tackles.

    Ranked 77 for average clangers.

    Ranked 110 for average turnovers.

    You gotta love his intensity and consistent effort, but IMO this year his mistakes cost us more than his positive impact.

    I am glad that AVB stuck with us much better having him in our side rather than in someone else's that we have to play. Hopefully 2021 will be a better year for Vanders and us.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree DZ many of us rate him  plays hard and straight ahead  kind of player. One who plays his role for the team. 

    Yes l expect better from Vanders in 2021.

    On the trade table by the looks of it.

    Heading into the final year of a ridiculous three year deal, and at almost 29, Vandenberg would want to improve significantly to earn another contract. Yes, he runs hard at the ball and tackles well, but his disposal and decision making are well below par, and he doesn't kick enough goals for someone playing mostly in the forward half. At least he seems to have gotten over the worst of his injury issues.

    • 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?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
