    Seems like the broken finger has stalled Oliver's season. I hope he can regain his full form and take the Coaches' and Brownlow home!

    He got a hard tag from Aish and did the team thing. We all know he is a great footballer that would rather a premiership medallion than a coaches award around his neck. 

    Still has a great chance and will unlikely attract a tag for the last 3 games.

    Given how well we leveraged the tag from a team perspective, other teams with think twice before applying a heavy tag to Oli or Trac

    Who tagged who? Wasting a player like Aish on a Clarrie tag when the team is getting smashed seems like a mistake.

    Clarrie kept him occupied and out of the game.

    OTOH how come the multiple umpires could not pick up the holds and jumper tags on Clarrie at ball ups. A couple of free kicks would have quickly stopped the tag.

    Touk Miller has no competition.

    Oliver is literally competing with his own teammate who is just 3 points behind him. It's why he is unlikely to win a Brownlow. He plays in a midfield that is just too strong.

    Has to start kicking goals if he's to win it one day I think, or hope Trac and Viney have shocking seasons... which he never would want!

    Probably right,. By my bit of research he has 3 for the year, Touk has 7.

    Sure, but Touk has no competition within his own team.

    Quite often standout players in middle of the road sides win Brownlows. It would help enormously that GC have received a lot less thumpings this year than previous years, and no doubt Touk has had an outstanding year and is a gun player. No doubt Dew is gonna help him along too. 

    For me Oliver winning the Coaches Award last year in a premiership winning season was an outstanding achievement. To finish top 3 again this year, which I suspect he will, just backs up what a remarkably consistent player he is at the top level. I think his last two weeks have been well down due to his injury, and not because he has been successfully tagged. It's very hard to tag someone who is so skilled at winning contested footy.

    Also if he played for Geelong, he would get 10 free kicks a game. Alas he just gets dragged, held and hit behind play instead.

    I’d rather he get a second premiership medal than either of those 2 awards.

    It isn't the main game tbh and I'm sure that at this stage of the season things can become a little compromised.  I'm sure all the Melbourne players a focusing in on one thing at the moment.  We are very lucky to have players like Oliver, Gawn, Petracca, Viney, May and Lever in the one team at the same time.  I'd much rather that than one Touk Miller (who is an absolute champion player, by the way, and would be a very deserving winner).

    Give Miller a bit of credit he’s a great footballer

    I thought they used Aish to tag Oliver in the second half of this years earlier meeting - worked well for them that day 

    Aish did a good job and was certainly one of their few good players Friday night

    Ludicrous that he finished in the votes. And ludicrous that Fritsch scored one.

    You haven't been watching the Suns play. Noah Anderson is a hell of a player. 

    And if Touk is to win any awards, he deserves it on merit. Fantastic player.

    We used it against them by Oliver playing a team game, opening up space for other free players, and other team focused acts. Is no coincidence that all our other mids were the best players on the ground (Trac, Viney, Gus)

    Agree ask any player who was there toughest opponent and there always will be some obscure non entity type that just seems to play well against superstars. Aish was a fumbly nobody at Collingwood, but has now beaten Clarry TWICE. Ask Robby Flower who was his toughest and he always said Wayne Shimmelbusch over Keith Grieg and a host of others. Not that Shimma was a slouch. Aish has improved as a footballer and at the end of his career, I would hope he nominates Clarry as his toughest ever opponent. Fair praise I would say.

    Watchh CHOO CHOO TRAIN BECOME THE "RED HAIRED FIREBALLLLL EXPRESS LAST 3 ROUNDS!

    But can you imagine what it would be mean to win one in those circumstances!

    Took Miller has had a good year although not as good as last year

    However, Clarrry’s year is head and shoulders above him. Not even a contest

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
