    Congratulations you absolute superstar. A beast, a contested footy machine, a warrior. Underrated by some, but not by those who understand the game best.

    He couldn't give more appraisal to Simon Goodwin as he did then.

    Goody looked like a proud father.

    Well done Clarry! Come a long way since the days of rocking up fat to a Murray Bushrangers pre season training in Wangaratta 😉

    Highly deserved for an outstanding season.  The most prestigious individual award of all IMO.

    Clarry is a superstar.

    I’ve just checked the round 23 votes though, and Scott strikes again. Bizarre voting. How did Stanley get more votes than Max?

    Sympathy votes from Scott for Stanley there if ever I've seen them.  Given Stanley restricted his opponent to 25 touches, 39 hitouts, 6 marks, 7 clearances and the match winning goal, I'd hate to think what Scott was thinking Maxy was capable of without Stanley's stellar job!

    Chris Scott is a [censored]. My most hated coach in the AFL.

    Wow, that's true. Which means Goodwin has never coached a game without Oliver in the team.

    Except that caretaker one at Essendon. But that, like all things Essendon, isn't worth remembering.

    Lol. Thanks to that game, Simon Goodwin has coached the equal-second-most finals wins of any Essendon coach since 1968.

    I digress.

    Congratulations to Clayton Oliver on not only winning the coaches award but frankly romping it in!

    When will Essendon break these embarrassing records? (Hopefully never.)

    My guess...

    Goodwin
    5 Oliver  (because obviously)
    4 Petracca  (because dees)
    3 Dangerfield (because he torched us in the 2nd when the game was almost lost)
    2 Stanley (because he beat Gawn in the 2nd when the game was almost lost)
    1 Gawn (because he pulled us back into it and then won it)

    Scott
    5 Oliver (because obviously)
    4 Selwood (because cats)
    3 Lever (because there has to be a reason they lost)
    2 Dangerfield (because cats)
    1 Hawkins (because cats)

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Demons hit the road for their last practice hit out before the start of the 2026 AFL Premiership season when they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
