Neither Rivers nor Hibberd are tall defenders. 
Petty struggled but he was still our best tall defender even on one leg. I shudder to think how many more goals we would have conceded without him. 

Tonight yes

But include May, and the options open up

Tommo becomes 3rd tall... and we look totally different

Sure but May wasn’t an option tonight. So we had to push on and Petty fought on manfully. 
I think Tomlinson is a poor defender but agree that Petty needs a week off to recover properly from his 240 injuries.

Adjudication

 Helter skelter.

Opposition hyperbole watch;

Tom Papley;  shameless self promoting skite on steroids. Save it for the bathroom mirror son. Get a real job as a sideshow spruiker. Honestly.

Broadcast;

Channel 7 have an unsavory fetish for frequent throws to John Longmire in the coaches box. It’s supposedly a sport broadcast. Absurd.

Best they could do of Simon was an out of focus boundary shot. Reflected the team performance.

Overall Performance;

Like Icarus we Demons have flown to close to the Sun. Only to find our wings clipped and the team fabric unwaxed. Need to pull out of this dive quickly or the plummet could be painful.

Special mentions to Harry Petty for battling on on one leg, and to Kozzie for some incredible solo pressure efforts that lead directly to a couple of our  early gaols.

And a Purple Heart medal for Petty.

I'm astounded at the love for Fritsch. Three goals is nice, but that's just a cameo. He needs to be exerting pressure when he hasn't got the ball and just isn't doing enough.

6 Gawn, has a Ruckman ever had more contested possessions, played his heart out. 

5 Viney, brilliant game.

4 Brayshaw, reliable has not lost an ounce of courage.

3 Oliver, did a power of work in defense. 

2 Jordon,  smooth moves, looked assured.

1 ANB, one clanger but a lot of good work too, improved out of sight on his couple of down games.

 

Petty - Brave heart award

To kick three and should have been four when he was double and tripled teamed all day was a great performance.

I would dispute your opinion that Brayshaw was Melb's second best. Defensively he was very poor.

I agree ANB was better but I’m still not happy with ANB and Spargo.  They contribute barely enough and very very low direct scoreboard impact.

Not potting you, just genuinely curious, what didn't you rate about Viney, happy to hear another POV?

Lack of execution. Viney needs to start lowering his eyes and hitting targets again, otherwise he is a liability. Gets it a lot and doesn’t utilize it as well as he should/can. I get he is hard at it, and I admire his will to win the footy, but unless he’s hitting targets, then I cannot have him in my votes. Jack once adapted his game, many years ago. Harnessed his aggression and when he did - he started lowering his eyes more. He is actually really good user of the footy (if poised), also has a pretty snappy side step. He needs to get back to that player. He is one of my favorites so if I could’ve fit him in the votes I would’ve. He’s certainly having a ripping year.
