The problem I have with the voting is I only know the 4 Melbourne players in Heath, Hanks, Zanker and McNamara. The opposition players I have no idea of.

    I can't believe Zanker is only 22 - it feels as though she has been around for ages (same for Conti).

    Good to see Heath getting recognition, she has become a really important player.

    Hanks should be available as a midfielder, although she is guaranteed selection as a forward.

    Lots of very good young talent selected.   Surely Alyssa Bannan's more mature recent performances must have had her in the selectors frame.  She's only 19, huge upside.    

    Conti from Richmond has really good footwork and disposal, Charlie Rowbottom from GC is exciting and Blues Maddy Prespakis goes alright too (plus her sis at Geelong looks the goods). 

    In Finals Week 1 watch out for Brisbane's Hodder, a real livewire up forward, the Pies young mid Mikala Cann, Freo's Dana East who impressed against us and Daria Bannister from North who can take a good mark and kicks well.

    Bannan next season for sure!

    A lot of players who are pivotal to their teams in this list, especially midfielders in the expansion clubs, which says everything about the competition's direction.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
