    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 😉

    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)

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
