The backline will be interesting

There isnt much competition for the true FB, CHB. Its between May, Weitering &   Stewart  probably ends up taking one of the pockets and i think Maynard gets the other pocket.

I think Gus will be close to securing one of the HB roles, given his defensive form and recent time in the midfield, which ticks both boxes. 

Trac and Oliver are 100% locks. Gawn will be likely (pairing up with Witts for the ruck combo). Having 5 players in the team will be a tough ask, given Geelong are unlikely to have that many.

    Fair selections. You'd reckon Oliver, Trac, May and Max will get jackets.

    Fritta and Brayshaw next season!

    Lingers struggled the second half of the year and many here were calling on Kozzie to be dropped half way through the year!

    Reckon Melksham, Spargo and Ben Brown are stiff (but only because I like to annoy people on Demonland).

    surely ANB gets a nomination for the best spew of the season

    I think May is actually a bit lucky. 

    Has Had an average 2nd half year compared to last year. He has been in most people's AA teams by default

    Lingers stiff but the truth is he doesn’t handle a tag very well, maybe that’s why he missed

    Only 2 rucks, and Gawn [censored] all over Witts.

    Marching to his 6th AA

    Delighted for Fritta. 50 goals - best medium forward in the AFL by a country mile.

    Sam Taylor is a lock for one of the KPB positions. May should get the nod ahead of Weitering and Stewart for the other, and I'd imagine Stewart would get the BP position. Maynard should get the other BP position, and the half backs should go to Daniel Rioli and Sinclair.

    He’s been a bit off his best but at the same time since he came back from his break he’s easily beaten Daniher twice and taken care of Walker, McKay, Hawkins and Naughton. 

    Unless I’ve forgotten someone the only key forward who’s really got away on him was Peter Wright early in the year

    Playing half a season of ordinary football probably played a role too

    I’d have Wilkie in a back pocket, such a great shut down defender. And I’d have Sicily over Taylor, just does so much more.

    Stewart CHB, Maynard back flank. Rioli’s been great but only need 1 rebounding defender

    6 AAs in 178 games. Has to be an all time record of games per AA

    Jeez max could go 5 in a row!

    He should go 6 in a row. Witt's has been pretty good but no where in the Max tier. I'd only go one ruckman. I get having 2 when Grundy and gawn where both playing at the same high level but no ruckman could claim to be at Max's level this year

    No Maynard? I think he’s had a very very good year.

    If Max gets his sixth jumper that puts him ( deservedly) into rarified company.

    Max is so bloody good his "average" performances get underrated . Yet an "average" performance from Max is light years ahead of the best from almost any ruckman I can remember.

    Plus he is an outstanding captain.

    Absolute champion of the game

    I think Sinclair has had a better year so much so that they had to put a tagger on him.

    No ifs about it he WILL get his 6th AA jacket.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      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.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
