Looking forward to seeing what Goodwin and Scott thought of that.

At least Swooper worked out the Lever stuffed up numerous Cat forward entries and gave him recognition. Numerous times the cats got the ball on the rebound but found they had no targets, they could only see Lever and when they took him on they lost every time. Great game by Lever.

I think that is the one of best games I’ve seen Viney play. I could have had so many others in the votes but thought these were the players that were a level above.

Oliver deserved to be in also...it was him or Salem. Salem’s last quarter was pivotal in holding the cats out. Loved it when he outmarked Guthrie twice in a one on one in the space of a couple of minutes.

A great team performance!

hard to pick everyone but who kicks our goals without Fritsch?  critical player. kicked a 1/3 of our goals.  not sure we win without him

Yes agree to a point BuT ONE person started a Trade Fritsch post.

No apology yet to my knowledge.

Its onward and upward for Bayley and the Dees in 2021.

6. Langdon. Offered vital run all day and kicked an important goal. 

5. Gawn.

1. Salem. Won some big 1 on 1's.

 

Insane that you can watch Kozzie Pickett play a game like he did today, but not see his name mentioned once in this thread.

Why?

Because there were several others that played EVEN BETTER.

 

Gotta love it.

6. Petracca - Best game for the year from Trac

5. Lever - Lever was bloody important after May's injury and showed true leadership

4. Fritta - He was brilliant with his kicking for goal

3. Oliver - They tried to tag him, they failed

2. Gawn - Big game from El Capitan

1. Salem - He is having an absolute cracker of a year, I don't think he was beaten once all day


6: Gawn

5: Petracca

4: Langdon

3: Salem

2 : Lever

1: Viney

Fritsch, Spargo, Oliver, Bradshaw all excellent as well.

 

We have all picked 6 players,

and we all have slightly differing views on the way the game played out, but I think there were at least another 10 players who deserved being picked in the best.

from one or two outstanding tackles, to beating Guthrie each time it came to him,  to being in the right spot as the ball came off the pack up forward, to miss by a bees donger, to sprinting in pairs down the wing, thought I was seeing double, to tacking 9 marks or heaps of hit outs and saving marks, or being on the bottom of a tackle not letting the ball get out, to Chunky playing like he deserves to be there, and JV walking tall past  Selwood on the ground,    Really yesterday we wer3 never in real danger,  got caught a bit in the third then settled down, what about Lever calming down the backs after a couple of poor decisions, great stuff

We played as a TEAM !   And  Hawkins should be cited and rubbed out !   Go Dees.  5 Zip.   Make it happen.

just goes to show how difficult it is for a backman to get recognised let alone be awarded a brownlow. Most would agree that Lever was among the very best on ground but nothing according to the so-called experts.

  • 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.
