Several poster not having Petracca in their top 6 is staggering to me. He was immense and critical to our win. His intensity around the ball. 7 clearances, 6 tackles. Fantastic goal off one step.

Would be interesting to see coaches votes this week. Oliver could just about sew up the coaches award 🤞

I came here to say this.

Also interesting to see whether the coaches rate the games of the big names (Oliver, Petracca) ahead of the ANB's and Jackson's.

Since coaches aren't as dumb or bias as umpires, I assume they will give Jackson votes and also ANB. Goody certainly will.

I wonder if Bont gets votes this week. He was very ordinary except when it came to winning golden frees.

Fantastic to see some of our lesser lights featuring strongly in the votes. We are building beautifully, I reckon.

Love these votes from Michael Lynch in The Age. Great to see a couple of unsung heroes recognized for their performance.

I expect ANB and Jackson to get votes, it more about the order of votes I'm interested in.

Until the lightning break I would maybe have had my best 6 on ground as Petracca, Oliver, ANB, Jackson, Yeo and Cripps (in no particular order but with an emphasis on the MFC players). The surge after the break could shake things up a bit: we defended well (does Bowey/May come into it) do the Eagles go higher?

Brown was very good in those conditions and perhaps I've underrated him too. 7 marks, 6 score involvements including 3 goals and an assist, in those weather conditions was outstanding.

(Apologies to the tally room, too, if this cleverd***edness makes the count harder😬)

PREVIEW: Essendon
PREVIEW: Essendon

Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

REPORT: Gold Coast

Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

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.
