What?

He dropped two marks which directly led to goals. 

His best game was just two weeks ago in Round 1 and this was miles off that.

Apart from Gus, everyone made bad mistakes out there tonight (even Clarry got a ball in the middle ran forward and proceeded to somehow kick it down the oppositions throat).

Was at both games and from where I was sitting, tonight he was better. Tonight he stood up when lots around him were not, plus May was getting dominated tonight, whereas against the Dogs Maysie was able to help out a lot more.

Thought May was great in patches, especially early. Faded out and was soundly beaten in the air and comprehensively outplayed by Wright, who kept them in it.
 

I understand there is a structure and it isn’t necessarily 1on1 all the time, but May couldn’t keep up. Was found far behind the play multiple times.

6. Clarence Harding Oliver 

Still don't know how he always gets his hands free. Always helps clear congestion 

5. Brayshaw 

20 marks for crying out loud. Worked his absolute butt off. Becoming such a nice outside option to have.

4. Joel Smith

Yep, echo statements that this is the best game of his career. Tireless worker, good job son.

3. Langdon

The runners really shined tonight in a game that lacked skill from either side. Never stops running and capped it off with goal of the year surely. Anyone who thinks he played a howler because of 3 bad kicks I think are a bit harsh.

2. Weideman

He clunked a lot, he didn't clunk some, he kicked 4, he missed 3. But he ultimately gave us something we needed. Well done Choofta, got a great view right behind your run up in the Punt Rd pocket for that beauty too.

1. Harmes

I'm really big on goals at crucial times when everyone else is missing and the team mindset is flat. Took them well and also with 8 score involvements. I think few work harder.

Unlucky: Gawn. Far from his best but showed a heap of leadership when it was needed.

Adjudication (Specsavers award)

Clean up the packs!
It’s an infringement free zone. Too much wrestlemania and head high contact.

Plus drop the man on the mark marionette farce.

Opposition hyperbole watch;

#25 overrated superannuant claim to fame? Swallowed the dog while supposedly on lollipop duty. 
 

Positive; pleased to see two metre Peter’s career on the (w)right trajectory impressive.

Overall comment;

Dees 2022 it’s another great vintage in the making.

Viney - combining much better with Oliver, anyone noticed his 22 pace? He has found another gear, so happy for him.

He's actually properly fit for essentially the first time in his career with us.

Spoke about it on Gus & Gawny the other week - apparently his natural/ideal level is an endurance beast - something we've never seen at MFC.

Solid without being all that interesting, meaningful or spectacular.

6 - Oliver. Won us the game. Tore away from packs and kicked to forwards lace out. Just a terror.

5 - Brayshaw - My fave. Love him and everything he does. Like to think I'd play like that if I could run farther than the corner shop.

4 - Happy E - Legend. Love the way he plays the game. Always looking for a one-two and loves a goal.

3 - Bowey. Just can't get enough of his disposal. Love he's starting to get a little tougher too. So much time and plays the half back role well.

2 - Weid. Happy he got amongst it, but wasn't as enthused as others about his performance. Seems like a really nice guy and that, but just can't see him sticking around.. Had hoped to see Van Rooyen this game, but Sam went ok.

1 - Joel Smith - Not a fan, but his best game if you ask me. Credit where credit is due. Good spoils. Not terrible disposal. Stretched the lines. Gives us something the other defenders don't. Still, I doubt him. 

Hon Mention: Fritsch. Style and technique (lower that hair though Bayley, lol). Loved how he went for the speccie at the end and did basically the same thing as he did in the GF and got one over the back. Cheeky.

99/100 times Brayshaw gets BOG for a 20 mark performance but Oliver was just too influential on the night.

6) Oliver

5) Brayshaw 

4) Langdon- his GOTY nomination increased his rankings here.

3) Weid - you kick 4 goals you get votes.

2) Harmes - kicked 2 critical goals in the 3rd quarter. Good ones too.

1) Jackson - found it hard to give that last vote, but this guy is just dominating at the moment.

May can’t get votes tonight. Wright dominated the game in parts.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
