Who do you think is going to win the Keith "Bluey" Truscott Trophy tonight and be declared the winner of the 2021 Melbourne Demons Best & Fairest in a Premiership year?

I reckon it would have to be Clayton Oliver. That's my very confident tip. He was the most consistent player the whole year.

My top 5 is as follows...

1) Clayton Oliver

2) Christian Petracca

3) Max Gawn

4) Jake Lever

5) Christian Salem

Anyway, it should be an enjoyable evening as I think the Melbourne Football Club is live-streaming the event?

I reckon Max will take it out. He was used tactically each week and had the biggest influence on us winning games imo. Should be a cracking night!

1. Gawn

2. Oliver

3. Petracca

4. Lever

5. Salem

Fritsch a close 6th

I imagine that Oliver, Petracca, Lever, Gawn and May will be our top 5. Oliver should finish first based on consistency. 

I'm expecting Viney to finish in the top 10. He may have missed some games due to injury but he's rated very highly by the club.

Hard to see anybody take this away from Oliver.

1. Oliver

2. Trac

3. May

4. Salem

5. Gawn

Norm Smith Memorial Trophy (most consistent): Its a hard one, but probably Oliver takes this as well?

Ron Barassi Jnr Trophy (best leadership): Lever (assuming Gawn is not applicable as Captain?)

Harold Ball Memorial Trophy (best young talent): Hard to go past Bowey

Ian Ridley Memorial Trophy (community work) : Hard to know this one - presume Jetts still doing the good stuff.

James McDonald Trophy (Melbourne spirt): Going out on a limb here to say ANB as the ultimate role player who was able to turn back from the 'abyss of delistment' and forge himself as premier small forward.

Can't remember, do the finals series get included in the bnf or is it just the home and away season?

Oliver easily.

Petracca had more brilliant games but even in the GF Clarry took out Bont and let Truck star. Selfless.

In the talk with Barassi and Flower for greatest Demon of all time. Isn't yet but he still has a decade of football in him.

But from 2 onwards, my finishing order is:

2) Tracc
3) Maximus Gawnius
4) Viney
5) Salem

The AFLCA must be a good indicator for the B&F considering Goody votes. Below is the number of games our players polled coaches votes in. Kozzie has not had much love in this thread, and TMAC polled in a relatively high percentage of games.

Oliver (17)

Tracc (15)

Max (12)

Salem (10)

Lever (9)

TMAC (9)

May (5)

Kozzie (5)

LJ (4)

Langdon (3)

Viney (3)

Yeah, T Mac’s first half of the season was miles better than his second.

He played some top shelf games against Freo, Richmond, Sydney and Carlton.

I reckon Gus might poll ok tonight. Definitely won’t go close to winning, but he played his role with aplomb this year, something the coaches no doubt would not forget when voting.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
