Andrew Brayshaw, the better Brayshaw?

I think he is. Gus is solid enough, but don’t think he will get back to his best for whatever reason. Andrew is a very good young player.

 

Doing the math, looks like the coaches saw it basically the same. Only difference is they had Lever and Oliver swapped around as 2nd and 3rd best on.


They've got some good young players, Brayshaw, Serong, Cerra. I'd have any of them.

I'm no Goodwin basher but with Gus I really feel that Simon is not utilising this talent and potential. At another club I could see him being in their top 2-3 midfielders.

EDIT
Also, well deserved for May. No way anyone could deny him BOG (though I'm sure the umpires will).

Clearly at the moment but the older one did snag a 37 possession 3 goal game in 2018.

The regression of Angus has been fascinating (a bad fascinating).

On topic, i can’t recall having a better full back at the club than Steve May. He was brilliant in 2020 and his 2019 was also pretty good once he got on the park for those 7 or 8 weeks.

You can tell he is hungry for finals as much as any other player on the list.

Injuries haven't helped, including the last one (Lisfranc). Seriously compromised preseason, that he's out there at all is an achievement. Thought he wasn't the worst, and he showed more level-headedness than in the past.

May was amazing. Best tall defender we’ve had in a long long time. 10 kicks in the first quarter. Amazing player

Without a shadow of a doubt.

I hope whoever did the votes for The Age is suitably embarrassed. Didn't have May in the top 5 players on the ground.

Probably didn't watch the game.

Or, if they did, they plainly didn't understand what they were watching.

Just unbelievable.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
