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: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
