It's difficult when you are at the match, yoiu only see some bits.

6/ Brayshaw

5/ Oliver

4/ Langdon

3/ Jackson

2/   now it gets difficult

2/ Harmes

1/ perhaps ANB   for the last quarter  i thought he played well

but so did Rivers Sparrow Bowey  Spargo Kossy  Weide Max Viney Tracca   et al

The 1 votes - no, no,no,  way.  Kossy was not in the best 10 players on the day. Maybe he needs a forced "rest" Spargo - average Bowser - yes, played a great game. Very reliable.

May ? ???? More like Weidemann 

One scores four (4) goals guest yome in his career and other has (4) Gour goals against for the first time in ages.

Glad  your not on the selection panel Chook. 

Saw it at the ground and just watched the replay to confirm my thoughts.

6. Oliver - his ability to move at speed from contest to contest is remarkable

5. Brayshaw - this move to half back could be a masterstroke.  The Bombers showed him too little respect.

4. Langdon - the running man.  He was everywhere.

3. Gawn - his best game of the season and his third quarter in particular was leadership personified.

2. Bowey - this guy is just so composed you are almost surprised if he makes an error.

1. Weidemann - He marked almost everything and was our only forward of any effect for the bulk of the game.

Interesting that when Stringer went forward they tried to isolate him in the square with Brayshaw his opponent. He kicked two goals.

6 Clayton Oliver   A warrior   Definitely a 3-vote game 

5 Angus Brayshaw   Seemingly everywhere and linked up creativity all night

4 Ed Langdon  runs and runs and gets footy and runs 

3 Max Gawn   Battled on around the ground to drive the ball forward 

2 Joel Smith   Defensive efforts were important at key moments  

1 Sam Weeeeideman   Better attack on marking and kicked crucial goals 

apologies to May and Bowey who were solid all night

I was at the game and just sobered up.

The first three were stand outs and you could argue about the order

Oliver 

Bradshaw

Langdon ( this bloke must have a motor hidden in his jocks)

After that there's a few deserving

Jackson

Weid

Bowey

There was a lot of ****ty football and errors.

Does that make you twice as silly or only half as silly WCW?

Hey! Don’t make light of a potential alcohol problem!

BTW Uncle, you should deign to come and sit down amongst us plebs some time. Only once, let’s not get crazy here. You can see how the other half live. And you’ll learn a bunch. For instance, did you know we’ve all been mispronouncing ‘Essendon’ all these years? Yep, seems the first ‘n’ is silent.

To wit…

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
