Criteria:

Pick someone from Collingwood, Essendon. Richmond and Carlton. Big 4 clubs appeased and will keep audiences up.

Then better pick someone from the premiers & runners up or I’ll look stupid.

Round out the 10 with interstate sides for national click bait.

Done.

    Dwayne hardly the best judge, he'd go off like a pork chop for Clayton Hinkley.

    Derwaynne - I would watch Kozzie, Tracy, Clarrie, Max and Jacko before most of those.   (Maybe I am a bit biased) 🙄

    It’s a team game - I like watching the half per centers  and centre square breakaways. 
    Let Wines have his Brownlow.

    He's allowed to have his opinion of who he likes watching. And, of course, you can all disagree and make your own lists.

    Even though we've just won a premiership, MFCSS keeps popping out of the woodwork in all the usual manifestations.

    Apparently being voted the best player in a GF and producing on the biggest stage of all isn't very watchable these days 😥.

    Neither is winning the coaches votes for the season, getting 33 possessions, 10 tackles , shutting down Bont and a nail in the coffin goal in a GF. Voted the most selfless player by your teammates in a trend other clubs are trying to follow.

    Or a giant who is All Australian captain, kicked a goal after the siren to see his team win minor premiers and kick 5 goals in a preliminary final from anywhere he got it within 60m.

    If Stephen Milne still played, he'd be a shoe in.

    Agree. (Except that it’s a shoo-in. As in ‘‘shoo… shoo… get in there’’)

    Sorry, i couldn’t help myself. I see this all the time and it drives me crazy.

    Now that’s an oddly specific, obscure reference. If I remember correctly, a certain loud Demonland member, who is still around but mostly posts on BigFooty, was a massive Clayton Hinkley fan. 

    Edit: actually I might be thinking of Clayton Collard. So many of these Clayton’s Claytons from the mid 2000s that were supposed to be good but weren’t. Thanks goodness we got the real one.

    My top 10 most watchable:

    1. Kozzy Pickett - magic happens!

    2. Isaac Heeney - if he's injury free he'll be nearly the best player in the comp.

    3. Liam Ryan - pace, leap, execution!

    4. Charlie Cameron - the next Betts.

    5. Harry McKay - reckon he's in for a 70 plus season.

    6. Christian Petracca - who wouldn't want to see more of Norm?

    7. Dustin Martin - legend of the game.

    8. Shai Bolton - always exciting. Can mess it up but won't die wondering.

    9. Toby Greene - mainly just enjoy watching him self-destruct.

    10. Scott Pendlebury - my favourite non-demon

    You would rather watch Pendlebury then Oliver???

    As Darth Vader would say..... "I find your lack of faith dusturbing"!

    Second place Tim Ruffles, the least popular AFL player named after a chip.

    Bold statement, given the number of Smiths that have played the game.

    There was also a Pringle, so you've got plenty of variety to choose from.

    My list (excluding Melb players due to bias:- koz, Trac, Oliver, Jacko, Gawn, Fritsch, Salem would all feature)

     

    1.  Bont              (Class & match winner)

    2.  Liam Ryan    (Excitement, weekly hangers)

    3.  Dusty             (Don’t argue)

    4.  Nic Nat          (Freakish ruck-taps)

    5.  Josh Kelly      (Skill + ability to hit a target)

    6.  Buddy       (The strut, and bombs from 60m) 

    7.  C. Cameron   (Speed, stupid celebrations) 

    8.  Robbie Gray    (Class/skill/match-winner)

    9.   Danger       (Explosiveness)

    10. Greene      (Mad, head explosions) 

     

     

    Agrre with nearly all of these, except for Danger (not exciting to see a bloke trying to kick it to himself) & Greene ( I want to watch footy not a sideshow, however I will admit he can play. What about Touk Miller ?

    Dwayne Russell has two brains.

    Ones lost and the ones out looking for it.

    Good call:-  I forgot about Touk. Happy to sub him in for Danger. 

    agree re Greene:-  the commentators obsession with him can be hard to watch also. Maybe sub old mate Jesse Hogan in for Greene?

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
