    6 Viney - the ultimate warrior when the chips are down.

    5 Oliver - slow start but really motored in the second half.

    4 Van Rooyen - anonymous for three quarters but his three superb contested marks (and goals) were crucial at the end.

    3 Gawn - not quite at his very best but in combination with Grundy eventually wore Richmond down at the stoppages.

    2 Chandler - worked hard and kicked key goals when we were under the pump.

    1 Langdon - covers the ground like no other.

    6, Viney, 

    5, Gawn, brilliant game, we don't win without him.

    4, ANB, critical game, pick pocketing Richmond in the fwd half was critical, defensive forwards are key, Voss needs to show vision of ANB to fix carlton.

    3, Lever, such a clutch player

    2, McVee, I swear he went at a 100% DE, clutch moments time and again saving goals

    1, JVR, take a bow, probably stole the RS nom off McVee

    Chandler took his chances he needed to take. Grundy looked a bit lost but the way he stuck up for McVee, (1st time Viney has been second in backing up a team mate ever), really gave me the warm fuzzies. Feel dirty about Langdon, should probably have McVee's spot but need to share the love. Oliver and Tracc I have both taken for granted.

    Sorry to Chandler and thought Grundy was more influential than being given credit for.

    Grundy needs to improve his defensive marking.

    Really hard tonight because I don't think anyone played a complete game all day. A couple accumulated and did their thing all day without breaking free, others burnt very bright but for a short period of time only.

     

    6 Petracca. The most complete game for me, 26 touches, 12 i50s, for 609m gained, 7 score involvements (including 3 GAs). I thought Petracca was involved all day, but also added some real power and burst at times.

    5 Viney. I'm not going to quote stats. They were good but Vineys votes are based on effort tonight. He wasn't as influential with the ball as Tracc imo

    4 Gawn: 6 contested marks (Richmond took 8 for the game) and led is for contested possessions with 13. Also snared a goal. He was the dominant big man on the ground when forward. And Grundy looked much better in the ruck.

    3 Oliver: Another all day warrior who didn't truly dominate to his standards but was clearly in our best. Disposal was scrappy at times. However his clutch goal on the siren was the spark we needed: it gave us the momentum. Set shots aren't his game, but he worked hard to nail it, and I think that gets it extra credit. Had no love from the umpires when being held. 

    2 JVR: it was a 15 minutes cameo, but you could argue he won us the game. Strong contested marks in packs meant he learnt those goals himself. No one else stepped up like that when needed.

    1 Lever: 10 marks (2 contested), 10 intercept possessions, and the only player to play 100% of game time. I don't know how to find stats for spoils. But I thought he was our best defender overall, reading the play and impacting contests.

     

    Special mentions to Langdon, Chandler, Grundy, McVee and Brayshaw who I thought all played pretty good roles and could have nabbed a vote. 

    Also shout out to Bowey who (apart from one shocker used the ball well and defended very well, including that top notch effort and smother near the end of the game.

    Congrats to Jack Viney for winning the Checker Hughes medal. I’m glad this game has the medal in his name for best afield.

    For info, it was Checker Hughes that paid for and donated the Bluey Truscott perpetual trophy for our B&F shortly after Bluey died in 1943.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
