Hard to argue with your top 3 Picket but I think you’ve undersold Viney.

The Brisbane QF match was a fair while ago now so it’s easy to forget but he was enormous in that game.

Even in the GF it’s not until I’ve watched the replay 3 or 4 times lol that you realise how pivotal he was.

Had him in at 7 but could easily have been in for 1 or 2 votes that game!

Unfair to pick out a top five as it was a superb team effort. Salem played a blinder in the Granny for example!

We knew the top blokes were going to be fantastic, but what about Sparrow proving finals is not a barrier and young Bowey who also proved he was up to it !

Spargo , ANB  as well

Viney & Gus .........the list goes on .

Actually you are not going to believe this, because I thought the finals was best of five (just like NBA) and we won the first three by exactly the same score...........resounding !!! ( How come Foxtel was the only broadcaster for the final 2 games.

Seriously?  It's a term for an excellent performance in a game and a well-known phrase at that.

It's out of an advertisement.

What is a blinder?   Google ad I think.

Oliver is stiff to only get 5 coaches votes in the grand final. I would normally say I must have been watching a different game but given I have watched the replay enough times it amazes me.

They are all champions in my eyes but here's a bit of data to mull over.  Weighted average scores from the three finals.

I usually add about 0.70 to Maxy to allow for his hit outs to advantage which would bring him into about 5th posi here and something a tad less for LJ.  Say about 0.30 bringing him up to around 11th?

In the table I showed players who voted in more than one final.

Fritsch got 8 votes in the GF.  Only so many votes to go round.

18 were drafted and developed by the dees and, of the top 10, eight were home grown.

All 18 earned and deserved their place in the team on GF day. There were no easy spots or players making up the numbers.

Only 5 out of 23 came from other clubs. But what a five - May, Lever, Langdon, Brown and Hibbert. Three AAs, a champion goalkicker and the best wingman in the league.

Kudos to the club.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
