Only showing the top 5 as 6 teams had a bye
Oliver still on top.  Only Cripps has played one game less than the others.

Couldn't the breakdown also be:

5/5 Gawn

3/3 Reid

4/0, 4/0, 2/2 McCartin, McDonald, Mills

1/1 Viney?

Edit: I'm assuming the coaches splits weren't provided. If so, I apologise.

Interesting that 3 of the 4 swans players that got votes and talls.  Shows how poorly we are going in that area (aside from Gawn)

Also, good to see Viney get rewarded with a couple of votes, some DLers didn't even have him in their top 6 MFC players.  He is still underrated on here for some reason

Good pick-up.  Thanks.

The splits aren't provided.  I 'deduce' them.

  • Demonland changed the title to COACHES VOTES: Round 12, 2022

When a player on the losing side gets top billing from both coaches, you know most of his teammates have been pretty average. I would surmise that Viney got both his well-deserved votes from Goodwin.

Gawn deserved the 10.  He tried to carry us to a win but even his huge frame couldn’t lift the 12-13 teammates underperforming. 

Gawn got top votes everywhere that I've seen. Except from Mark Robinson who wrote in his Monday "Likes/Dislikes" column that Sam Reid would have got the three Brownlow votes. (In Robbo's defence, who, generally speaking, doesn't want to see more Brownlow votes being awarded to non-midfielders?)

    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?
