Gawn - surprisingly didn’t dominate

This confuses me. Langdon played well. Ran hard all day. Is a lone wingman out there but provided good linkage and tackled well. Not the most dazzling performance of his career, but certainly a good game. 

  • Grapeviney changed the title to My 3 word player analysis v Fremantle

Not bad. My thoughts:

Gawn - Couldn't impose self

McDonald - Sporadic yet reliable 

Oliver - Quantity not quality

Langdon - Had some presence

May - God among boys

Lever - Back to best

Petracca - Wasteful beyond first

Harmes - In and out

Jordan - Rising star nom

Brayshaw - did he play?

Spargo - Demonlands most underrated

Tomlinson - Club best game

Salem - Too easily beaten

Fritsch - Flash in pan

Sparrow - Not his day

Jones - Closer to milestone

Neal-Bullen - just a game

Pickett - Cyril Rioli like

Jackson - Present yet wasteful

Rivers - Has some flashes

Hunt - Not quite there

Jetta - Played solid role

Rivers: many costly mistakes

I would say this..after a really promising debut season.

Rivers - 2nd year blues

I hope he can shake them

Ha, i was tempted to say that. But it’s just one game. Let’s hope it doesn’t turn out to be the dreaded second year blues.

I’d prefer if he played the team role rather than racking up the stats.

I'm comfortable with your analysis of every player apart from the above.

This guy is the Energiser bunny - runs hard all day.

Yeah, I was shocked that his disposal efficiency was 80%. I wouldn't have had him in my top 10 on the field.

I actually thought Brayshaw was ok. He laid some big tackles in the last qtr (including one on Fyfe) and did some nice composed kicks that led to scoring opportunities. He’ll be even better next week. 

Oliver was BOG for mine.

Jetta was oustanding.

Brayshaw did a lot of important hard things, and pinpoint passes


So glad Tomo has been recognised.

Definately the best game his played for the club.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
