Petracca - 4 quarter brilliance 

Viney - hard and important 

Oliver - seemingly different role

Brayshaw - not his best

Neal-Bullen - some vital intercepts

Gawn - fit and imposing

Brown - an important role

Jordon - better second half

Jackson - exciting in bursts

Harmes - excellent tagging game

Langdon - excellent first quarter

May - great second half

Fritsch - fifteen minute game

Sparrow - was rarely noticed 

Spargo - excellent with ball

Smith - seemingly no errors

McDonald - genius positional change

Hunt - quiet after first

Bedford - some encouraging involvement 

Bowey - continued perfect record

Tomlinson - slowish but effective 

Pickett - needed more involvement 

Salem - a huge loss

    Very good analysis but you were hard on Brayshaw. His defensive efforts were brilliant and I thought his disposal was effective for the most part.

    To say Gus Brayshaw didn’t play that well is unbelievable, you have no idea

    Not to be a scold, but I think that joke played itself out a long time ago (and I was one of the original urine takers who gave joeboy stick over it).
    It has been 4 years since Tyson left after all and joeboy is pretty generous in taking the time to come up with these analyses every week. 🙂

    Why not frame Joel Smith's game in a positive light. Seemingly waiting for the bloke to fail is pretty poor.

    Agree Joel did really well last night I've said this before but those who don't rate him need to remember he has struggled to stay on the park consistently and build his confidence and understanding of the game at the top level

    If he stays fit he has a good chance to continue his improvement and become a very valuable player for us

    Brayshaw -  continued finals form

     

    This needs to be his baseline

    Bowey - fantastic 9 touches

    We're used to small forwards having low disposals and playing well, see Pickett in the grand final, or even last night.

    But I don't think many half back flankers play as well as Bowey did with just 9 touches last night. I thought his defensive positioning and contests were really strong. 

    Along with Hunt, Smith, Tomlinson I thought he allowed McDonald and particularly Brayshaw to get in intercepting positions to provide what we usually get from Lever.

    I was shocked to see he had only 9 touches.

    Sparrow - couldnt find ball (hope he hasnt relaxed with re - signing)

    Also put his body on the line in the last Quarter, it hurt, and he didn’t flinch until the ball was moved on.

    Seemed to be playing half-forward for much of the night. Whether that was to change their on-ball mix (a polite way of saying whether he'd been demoted from that role following the pasting they received in the GF) or he had a particular role, such as tagging one of our defenders, I couldn't tell.

    Oliver had what 7 or 8 free kicks paid against him for iffy infringements and yet when he was infringed against...... Play on. CLUB might need to make representations to AFL if this continues

    Umps just want to make sure Oliver earns his Brownlow the hard way.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.
