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.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
