Good afternoon Demonlanders, Great to be alive isn't it? The GLOW has not faded as yet after 2 weeks and nor should it for the rest of our lives!!

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!

 

Coaches votes were:  

    QF PF  GF     
Petracca 7 6 10 23
Oliver 10 4 5 19
Gawn  1 10 0 11
Salem 0 6 2 8

Lever had 3 vs Lions, Viney had 3 vs Cats and there was a few 1 votes for other dees.

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

Only trouble is Max's effort in the prelim should have been a 15

Whats a blinder? 

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 hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
