Makes a few people who posted to drop him on the changes thread look a bit silly to say the least...

Great first game back.

The split looks like:

  • 5/5 McDonald
  • 4/3 Mills
  • 4/2 Oliver
  • 3/0 May
  • 2/0 Harmes
  • 1/0 Hickey
  • 1/0 Salem

So both coaches gave votes to McDonald, Mills and Oliver.

No agreement on May, Harmes, HIckey and Salem.

If we drop Tom McDonald and James Harmes surely that makes it easier for Gawn, Oliver and Salem to get more votes, and win the award.

Maxy is due for an absolute blinder. 

Was  hard on Sat eve  with the ball being so slippery. He dropped a few he'd normally swallow whole.

Almost as silly as those you suggested Mcdonald plays back.


I'm a bit surprised that Luke Parker didn't get a vote.  He seemed to bob up with annoying frequency, particularly around those much discussed centre clearances.

edit:  I just checked his stats to see if it was just my imagination, and he had 32 disposals, 4 marks, 5 tackles and 7 clearances.  That's a good day's work by any standard.

It really was a good return for Harmes; he battled hard and kept working away at it all despite a loss of form and a few errors. His use of the body in close and in screens was terrific. His ball usage was sloppy at times and at other times, effective. His ability to run and link is a real asset to our game, and it will improve as he, too, adjusts to the new footballing mantras about him.

Yes, good first game back for Harmes, but he does owe the club.

You really have to hand it to him. Amazing mental toughness and application to get his body and game back to 2018 level. Put up for trade last year too.

No-one saw this coming.  As his confidence grows, he could really dominate

Him and Fritsch on track to get 40-50 goals this season

Indeed. Dont kniw what game they watched.

He made a few poor decisions but for tge most part played a ripper even outside the fact it was his first gamr for the season.

Will be even better with a few games in him.

So many players are reaching their true potential because of our new winning culture.

Sorry started with Fritta and got carried away but agreed on the big guy.

 

  • Demonland changed the title to COACHES VOTES: Rd 08 2021

Amazing that 2 of our forwards have gained 10/10 in consecutive weeks and 4 players in the top 12. Shows that there is not an over reliance on 1 or 2 stars.

  • 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.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
