For a bloke that put his mate into next week, Rohan definitely played a good game. 

 

So  I think this works 

is there another way ?

Rohan   5 and 5

Stewart 4 and 2 

Tracca.  4 and 1

Close.          3 and 2

Viney           3

Lever         1


Sad to see Oliver so far down the list.

It's a strawman. Unless you think Butters polled his 70+ votes against us...

No its not... not ar all. Not conversant with the goings of the Port Game ?

A certain adversarial player was opening us up. So much so even our brains ( sic) trust gave consideration to him.  Then decided to leave him alone. That is nor my summary..that's on record ( somewhere)

The man who allowed Butters free reign... Simon Goodwin.

In life you can only control ( affect ) the things you can. Here he [censored]'d up.

He clearly didnt give due respect to the player. Others have .

You might disagree... your prerogative.

And the vast majority of touches were to 3/4 time... when we were ahead.

Our players didn't get the job done in the last.

FWIW, I would have played Viney on him, but it wouldn't have mattered at all, if JVR hadn't havegiven thstfree kick away or Chandler kicks his goal or Fritta kicks his.

Zak got 5 votes from both coaches.

Man of the match.

We need to make better decisions.

Viney to him might have worked but Jacks efforts are more valuable..imho.. possibly what the box thought.. who knows.

Id have sent some Terrier with a tank.to just wear him as best as can.... just niggle him..  even Spargo could do that.

Anyway...my point was we cant rely on our game alone. All well and good to back in.our blokes....need to lift eyes and accommodate theirs too ...at times..  jmo.

Imagine letting Rohan score a perfect 10 against you. 

I dunno…..I had him pretty high up in my votes at quarter time. 👀

Viney himself was tagged that night as referenced in Ollie Wine's post match interview

Who'd da thunk such things.....

The opposition apparently.. 

I wasn't at the game - not many visiting supporters ever do down there 🤮 even if they want to - and relying on TV to get a broad view of the game is impossible as they love to zoom in or more recently show the players legs at ground level.

Was anyone "on" Rowan??  He seemed to have free rein from what I saw.

Exactly. I'd have tried to throw the tag by shifting him across to Butters, but we should have won regardless and didn't get the job done.

Maybe , just maybe he's suggesting Goody shouldn't let him get 42 touches next time.....

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
