Lots of respect for Lloydo and his insight analysis into the game.

Good summary behind his reasonings and the strengths of each player.

His assessment of big Maysie ...well i won't spoil it (2nd reel)....

20 - 16 ...

Excellent assessments.  The vision of Maysie shows just what a pillar he is in our back half.

I genuinely think May is our most important player - because of the risks he allows us to take at stoppages to blow a game open.

I also love that he’s filthy on literally every goal that gets scored against us. We could be 80 points up with 2 minutes to play and he’ll give Hunty or Riv a spray if he doesn’t think they were in the best spot to stop the goal. You’d love/hate playing with him.

I'm struggling with the thought of listening to Lloyd for 15 minutes or so.  Would someone mind posting where he has ranked Demon players🙏

Same Luci. It’s ok when he’s talking about our players but yeah, a good ol’ fashioned list would suffice.

Its made worse by stretching it out by doing the ranking in lots of 5 rather than 10.

A few paras summarising each video would be most welcome but the AFL seems to want us to watch their boring commentators on videos and podcasts.  Who has that much time or interest.

A little animation in his monotonous voice wouldn’t go astray. 😁

Haha, I'm right with you there LH. However I suffered through him (better than expected) and:

May 14;  Gawn 9;  Petracca 5;  Oliver 2

Hope you're going well

Thanks Rob, you're a gem!

I'm great.  Lots of water under the bridge in the last few years, eh?

Hope LA is still great for you.

The revenue in video advertising is considerably better, and the content itself can stretch across to different channels more effectively - specifically those aimed at growing the game.

It’s a good point though. It’s not enough to just be a former player, you have to be able to present the information with passion and interest.

CRIPPS BETTER THAN OLIVER???? IN WHICH ALTERNATE UNIVERSE????

Calm down picket, OIiver's amazing but there's nothing at all unreasonable about someone putting Cripps above him right now. Whether we like it or not, Cripps has reached incredible levels so far this season.

I'm more miffed at May only being 14.

No, we can all have opinions. I’m sure she is a lovely lady, just find her very difficult to listen to.

Biggest surprise was Tom Stewart.  Can't recall him being anywhere in the top 20.  Our 4 were the right 4, maybe Langdon a bit stiff.

Forgive me for being lazy (and I can't listen to Lloyd) but are you staying that Tom Stewart wasn't listed in the top 20?  Horrible by Lloyd if so.  He's been the most important player of a team finishing top the last 3 years.  The moment he went down last year there whole defence turned into an absolute basket case.

We need to take the blinkers off here Picket haha!  As much as Oliver is by far my most favourite player and I think will be the demons most decorated player ever, even I struggle to have him in front of Cripps this year.

Cripps has been sensational whether killing it in the centre or going forward kicking goals.  He's having an amazing year.

The going forward and kicking goals is the only reason I'd have him above Clayton this year.

Fair enough.

I dare not ask what you think of her co-commentators like Taylor, Brayshaw et al,

Are you talking about Patrick Cripps?

If so, then it’s clearly opposites day on your planet since he is none of those things.

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
