    There's still 21 plus players; we should recognise recognise their effort as much as the men (actually more so as they give up more for less); but if having 2 less players reduce votes: let's make it 5.

    5. Zanker -- a real difference maker in the midfield. Saved the game when it looked like the doggies were going to overrun us.

    4. L. Pearce -- doing the Max-style kick behind play thing, and doing it very very well.

    3. Birch -- had a great game, but occasionally a bit panicky/unclean with her disposal. Fix that up and she'd have been BOG.

    2. Hanks -- as always, a smooth mover and good user through the middle.

    1. Sherriff -- both tough at the contest and skillful when the ball was on the outside, a key link-up piece in most of our best passages of play.

    Apologies: Lampard, Tarrant, Hore, Heath, Gay, Harris (the difference from Cunningham last season to Harris last night was like night and day -- I don't think Tayla will ever quite be the player that her media profile demands, but she'll be a very important structural piece for us).

    Thanks for getting this going.

    May as well chip in mine from the match report...although on reflection I've switched Birch and Zanker; perhaps I over-compensated in trying to avoid over-rewarding my favourite player.

    5. Zanker - As mentioned I've been on board the Zanker train since it departed the station. Especially glad to see her hit the scoreboard.

    4. Birch - Saved some goals (and nearly cost a shocker!) but clearly had a big impact in a somewhat depleted backline.

    3. Hanks - I always feel like I gloss over her performances, but she's that consistent I feel like I'm just repeating myself. So good in traffic, so balanced. Hope we're saying T.Hanks on W Award night.

    2. Sherriff - Glad to see some love for Sherriff above too. She's come a long way. Desperate and courageous.

    1. Hore - Wasn't a prolific lead-up game by any means, but when her shots were there, she took them. Which as we know, is kinda important!

    Daisy gets honourable mention. She missed an easy goal in the 3rd but otherwise was smart and clean with the footy.  Classy to watch.

    5. Zanker.  What can you say? 183cm runs like the wind, natural footballer and can kick 40m+.  Stood up when the side needed it with Karen and Lily off the ground for long periods

    4. Hanks.  Also took up the reins when needed.  Just tough and skilled.  Look at her tackling and run from the back pocket in the 1st which eventually created the goal.

    3. Birch.  Saved the bacon time and time again.  Had to do it all on her own at times. 

    2. L. Pearce.  Clean out of the ruck, and then follows up and then some more.  A nightmare for opposition

    1. Kate Hore.  Did what she needed to do when needed.  Just keeps bobbing up at the right time.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
