Dwayne's Most Watchable in 2022

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?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
