    The question is, how many of the other 43 would get a game at Melbourne based on our exposed form in September?

    Bontempelli went ok for a half. Could rotate off the bench as an impact player.

    Yes I could squeeze Isaac and a battler called Dusty into our bench rotation!

    On first glance Travis Boak should be in the top 20

    Nic Nat overrated as always, 13th best? He averaged 68% TOG and 1.6 marks per game. Completely overrated.

    Three of the best five players in the comp, that’s about right and that certainly helps you win games of footy. Oliver or Gawn could easily have been number one.

    It’s a cult; you’ll never convince any of them.

    So in Robbo’s view, the sixth best player won the Brownlow and there are three Demons in front of him (plus one ineligible).

    the problem with the brownlow (apart from it being voted by umpires) is that only 3 players can get votes per game

    ‘Cult’ is a very good descriptor in this instance, completely agree.

    I’d say he’s right. The Brownlow is often won by a midfielder who had a good year in a side where teammates don’t take too many away from them. Wines is a great player, but does he swing games the way the other 5 can? Ditto Sam Walsh.

    As a player. Absolutely. Was easily one of the best forwards this year

    Was good without being great this year, definitely not top 50

    Fritsch is too high. He wasn’t better than the other 6 Dees this year. More like 40th, maybe the 5-6th best goal kicking forward 

    Lever was better than May this year.

    Gawn not top 5 either. Somewhere between 10-20. He’s had better seasons. Paced himself this year.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
