It's hard to find players to give votes to after that performance, but I'm surprised by the love for Hunter. I thought he had a stinker. He covered some ground but, to me at least, it seemed every disposal was either a turnover or he sold his teammates into trouble.

    Was so ... 6 major turn-overs delivering the ball. Perhaps more, as I was not really counting but recalling, after the game.

    We were outworked, outmarked and outplayed by a team that had our measure and adapted to the conditions much better from the first bounce. Draper is going to be a nightmare when he really gets going.!!

    Viney was dreadful... Back to Viney of old!

    I'm surprised to see how many people have lauded Viney's game. I thought he was part of the problem with his poor delivery. And the idea that he should get votes because of his effort astounds me. If that's how we award votes, Walking Civil War should get 6 every week. Oliver and Petracca were streets ahead of everybody else.

    6.  Any dees supporter who travelled from interstate to watch the game live.  True dedication.  Love you.

    5.  Any dees supporter who travelled from other regions of SA to watch the game live.  Amazing.

    4.  Any dees supporter who travelled from within Adelaide to watch the game live.  Good stuff.

    3.  Any dees supporter who watched the entire game on TV.  Good.  (That's me.  My mental health is suffering as a result)

    2.  Any dees supporter who watched until 3/4 time on TV.  Meh

    1.  Any dees supporter who switched off their TV earlier than 3/4 time.  Boo

    From the director’s chair; 

    Home and away is starting to look like a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde horror movie. Selections for Anzac eve will reflect Hammer Films Productions, after a no show matinee last Saturday afternoon. Be prepared for some old fashioned blood letting on the casting couch.

    Adjudication;

    Dons got some sure goals from the goal square, some justified other soft as Gil’s over buttered cold toast on Sunday morning .

    Broadcasters;

    Propaganda courtesy of the Scott brothers. Sticky fingers in everything. Nauseating.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’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.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
