May's total of 13 is interesting given both Naughton and Wright were the opposition best player and he was the direct opponent for most of the game against both.  Both recorded healthy goal tallies too.

 

I think Max’s game has been underrated - in addition to his hitouts, 22 possessions 12 of which were contested, 6 clearances @ 80% efficiency. Not a bad nights work.

Agree.  The coaches votes will be interesting this week.  Gawn's second half was excellent.

I was tossing up between Gawn and Weideman for my final vote. Gawn's unlucky - I might have been swayed by the idea that Weideman needed an encouragement award. 

To be fair to Weideman, though, he really made a difference in the forward line by being a consistent threat. Let himself down with his kicking, but seeing as his history has shown he has struggled more to take marks than convert marks into goals, it was a pleasure to see the way he played. 


6  - Gus: he’s criminally underrated by some on here

5 - Clarry: gun, don’t need to say more

4 - Langon: on top of his incredible goal, a typically tireless game

3 - Weid: 4 goals on return with the pressure on, probably should’ve had at least one more with accurate kicking but so happy for him

2 - Bowser: how is such a young player doing such cool things under pressure?

1 - Harmes: not a complete game from him but kicked important goals and had some big moments

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
