    Oliver/Brayshaw/Viney/ANB/Petracca/Gawn - Brave

    Petty & May : Damage done on way down but Brave

    Lever : Truth is a defence in a Libel suit.

    Sparrow/Rivers : work on skills

    Salem : NQR (Physically)

    Spargo /Kossie: increase involvement

    Hibberd/Melsham : Buy a watch (Their time has come)

    Jackson : not our worry it seems

    Brown : needs another forward

    I love the joeboy 3 words every week, so I won't criticise, I'll just give an alternative and completely fail at the three word part:

    Gawn - hampered, tried, taps still sucked

    Petracca - hampered, still a gun, moments of brilliance

    Oliver - tagged out of it, dug the terminator eye

    Viney - as joeboy said, had no influence

    Neal-Bullen - good first quarter, then standard nibbler

    Harmes - good overhead, but in the wrong place too often

    Brayshaw - one of the few contested winners for the night

    Petty - my man, superhero effort

    Salem - why can't he kick anymore?

    Hunt - missing too often, not a great defender, not enough drive

    Jackson - love him, but was wearing Chris Dawes gloves tonight (I also love Chris Dawes)

    Langdon - tried, honestly was decent

    May - just a gun, spent all day angry at his teammates though, wasn't the defence's fault, guy needs to chill

    Lever - 50/50 game

    Brown - yeah, that was pretty bad

    Pickett - love him, one of the few highlights for us, constantly dangerous

    Melksham - garbage

    Sparrow - just horrendous

    Fritsch - gave no pressure, reliable set-shot, unwilling to put his body on the line, disappointing overall

    Hibberd - was ok, couldn't expect miracles with the rest of the mess

    Rivers - messed up pretty much every opportunity, but he'll be better next year

    Spargo - too slow, can't kick 30m, not enough pressure, missed opportunities

    team overall - not enough pressure, too conservative, hella banged up

    coaching - what the hell is our attacking structure? We're so conservative that we're unable to score, reliant entirely on moments of brilliance from Kossy, Oliver or Petracca. Way too focused on not being scored against that we're completely unable to move it forward. Horrible to watch all year, even when we were winning. Sort it out. Lots to work on over summer.

    Don’t use tht phrase. Annoys me no end. What on earth makes winning the premiership last year any different, other.than the disappointment of diehard fans not being able to attend? Finals played in front of crowds. Full length games. I really hate this notion that last year was some sort of undeserved premiership.

    It was 1000% deserved but it plain sucks that they won a flag when we couldn’t see it. 

    And then a year later we get dished up a woeful finals series at our home.

    Yeah I agree, was using it in jest, but also to highlight the rubbish that gawn and co continually spewed earlier in the year about the drive to win it in front of the fans.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
