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.

10 Votes T Mac

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.

Correct.  Only way the votes could have gone

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
