Just wanted to ask people's opinions on who will win this year's Keith "Bluey" Truscott Trophy for 2022?

There's an article about it found here: https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1229898

Personally, I think it will be either Clayton Oliver or Christian Petracca with Steven May as a dark horse to win it. I definitely think it will be pretty close this year!

My top 5 for the Demons Best & Fairest would be:

1) Clayton Oliver

2) Christian Petracca

3) Steven May

4) Max Gawn

5) Jack Viney

 

Anyway, please let me know who you think will be your top 5 in the Melbourne Demons Best & Fairest for 2022 ok?

It's got to be Oliver, surely. I'm also hoping Petty polls well.

 

Definitely Clarrie. 
Is anyone here going on Friday? 


Clarry to win and equal the record for most B&F's for Melbourne alongside Stynes and La Fontaine.

Still only 25...

Yes, I am going and I think Clarrie should win but Trac played every game and the voting system doesn't help if you miss a game or two. Watch out for Langdon who polled really well in the Brownlow and Gus.

Oliver surely.

I also think of Langdon being in the top 5.

 

I’d like to see Fritsch in the Top 5, he probably finishes in the 6-8 mark.

Counting the sleeps. Have missed the last couple of years but attended many going back to the 90's (at Melbourne Town Hall).

From memory it's 6 rounds at a time with the highlights of each round played of the screens. Absolutely spectacular.

It was funny during the Neeld years (5 wins from 33 games) that they could get enough material for the highlight reels.

Oliver by the length of the straight

Oliver.

Daylight

More daylight

Twilight and anything else in between

Sooooo  CLAYTON OLIVER EASSSSSY

Gawn and May both missed multiple games.  Oliver missed one.  I still think Clarry gets it  just from Petracca, Brayshaw and Viney and then either Gawn or May.

WCW, I am concerned about you being there. We might have to call the Fire Brigade to dous your flames! Maybe myself and Uncle Bitter could be called on to chaperone you to ensure some propriety! 😇👨‍🚒🌅🔥

Should be all good, PF. Apparently when they heard I was attending they ordered extra security. But thanks for the offer to chaperone. If I ever did need chaperoning I couldn’t imagine anyone I’d rather be forcibly restrained by than you and Uncle. 😁

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    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.
