Lever was truly outstanding.

That looks like:

  • 9 = 4 and 5 for both Pickett and Lever
  • 5 = 2 and 3 for both Petracca and Gawn
  • 2 = 1 and 1 for Oliver.

So very similar assessment by both coaches.

Trac makes up 700 metres and he gets 5 votes  .........WTFF>

De Goey got 10 votes.  Even without stella performances each week he could end up on top as there aren't other players of note to consistently take votes from him.  Conversely Oliver, Petracca and Gawn take votes off each other. 

The same goes for the Brownlow. 

Would feel 🤢 if De Goey won the Brownlow.

Do you think he should get more or less?

Daicos brothers and Pendles are always in the mix LH.  Not sure how DeGoey got 10 in that match.  second half was good but certainly not as noticeable in the first.

Agreed DD, but will they do it consistently enough...

...after all it is a midfielders medal.

It's tough because the great performers we had on the night were REALLY good performers. I'm ok with them rating Lever high, he was crucial at times. Not going to argue with coaches.

Ours was a pretty even TEAM effort which reflects the spread.

Don’t worry, Ebay Petracca will get himself into trouble sooner rather than later.

Lever gets 4 and 5 coaches votes. Now watch as he gets ignored by the umpires in the Brownlow who instead give 1 vote to the Bont

Clarry:  33 touches, 7 tackles, 8 clearances. 2 votes. It shows how much everyone takes what he does for granted.

Does it?  Or does it say that on the day others played better.

I will be shot down for this next comment.  Clarry is amazing and consistent for a full game and as a result is a worthy BnF and Coaches champion.  But it is rare that he is the 'game changer'. 

Our 'game changers' are Gawn and Petracca.  When they go into 'beast mode' there is no stopping them.  They will put in an amazing spell that turns the game and demoralises the opponent.  Like in the GF, on Sat night there was a point where Petracca played as if 'we don't lose this game on my watch' and he went into 'beast mode'.   He is a tactical weapon, breaks the game open and turns it in our favour with an amazing spell on the ball.  Ditto Max.

Consistency king. Clarry is more a 'play starter' whereas Trac is the master of the score involvement.

Fair enough, although 700 metres is a lot of thrusts giving opportunities.

Maybe coaches are hard markers or they just remember what Chris Judd did with the ball 

But if you're trying to fit Max Trac Ollie Kossie and Jake into the mix then the numbers are sure to be difficult to balance

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
