    6.  Kozzie - super clean all night, pressure 1st class all night.  4 snags for a small forward... noice!

    5.  Gawn - just everywhere, sticking hands in everywhere to spoil/flick ball around etc.  Desperation off the charts.

    4.  Tracc - Bit of a coin toss between him & Gawn.  When Tracc decides to take it up a notch look out.  Not many can go with him.

    3.  Gus - a few fumbles in the 1st half.  Made ammends and then some in the second.

    2.  Rivers - Great run and drive off HB.  Solid all night

    1.  Ben Brown - got to plenty of contests.  Took some nice clunks including a couple on the lead.  Some clutch goals.  4 is a decent haul!

    Apologies... Bowser, Lever, Tomo, Petty & Spargoat

    Gawn really played a complete game. He was a threat offensively and defensively to the Bulldogs all night.  His capacity to push back and either fill a hole or play genuine one-on- one meant that we could cover May's absence. Watching him live at the ground is a real lesson in what it takes to be a genuinely elite big man at this level.  English is a good ruckman who played a solid game but he got schooled by Max in work rate and effort, as well as craft.

    The votes are in and mine wouldn’t impact the final standings. As far as I can see there are no votes for Bowser and only one mention of him and perhaps rightly so given the others in front of him but there is no player in the team I feel more comfortable with when ball is in hand and he is so clean. This kid is a jet. 
     

    Shout out to Kade Chandler. He’s now a good AFL player and not a perhaps player. When he settles in front of goal we’ve got another beauty. Judd McVee is also going to be very hard to drop when Salo comes back. Jason Taylor, you’re a genius!

    Good summary Joeboy, don’t always agree but love the thread.

    Sorry, this started out to be a comment on Bowser and no votes but mushroomed!

    In no order

    i just thought that Puckett, BBB and Spargo all played extremely well

    and Lever, Thomo and Petty were rocks 

    apologies to at least Gawn, Tracca, Oliver, Chandler, AnB, McVee, Rivers, Bowey.  
    And gussy boy

    both McVee and Chandler best 22 end of this year definitely next year

    A final word on Max. Best ruckman I have seen ....... ever.  Can do it all. A great captain.

    No wonder he is filling a wardrobe with AA jackets.

    6-1

    Gawn, epic, Hawthorn 2017, / Prelim 2021 like

    Trac, Beast, so strong and made others better the way he draws and rides a tackle.

    Lever, Totally on, one of his best red and blue performances 

    Pickett, Mr 1%, Was a Javelin missile, scared the Dogs like a tank full of Russians.

    Oliver, Still amongst the best. 

    Rivers, Is a serious player.

    Sorry to many.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
