And - the new normal - THE WOMEN!

And for any-one who doesn't know.
The girls are flying and playing some ripping footy.
The men should watch them.

    Does anyone really think Neale had a Brownlow quality season?

    To me he was mostly average in a great side.

    Even Neale doesn’t think Neale had a Brownlow quality season.

    Yes agreed, Trac's vote-getting drop-off coincided with him spending more time forward with the petty and melky injuries. Pretty rough because he showed extraordinary power in several games to turn things our way.

    Did Goody moving him cost him the Brownlow lol

    Andrew Dillon and (hopefully) a new chairman, time to make your marks: Brownlow to be moved from umpires. To, say, the coaches' votes (with voting rules and eligibility to retain the 'Fairest' priority)

    Seems Trac and Bont are destined to never win one despite being the best players every year and influencing games more than their peers. Both got robbed of clear votes tonight. 

    Trac getting no votes in the final game was stupid. Getting 1 vote for his game against the Saints was stupid.

    The umpires are stupid. I’m [censored] sick of them. The umpires have determined the outcome of games this year and legitimately shaped the entire finals series. It’s beyond pathetic and as someone who’s attending 100s of live games since the 1980s, I’m thiiiiiiis close to giving up on the sport because of their [censored] incompetence and the rules being so vague etc. Stuff this

    I'm starting to think that the brownlow is slowly losing credibility. Neale wasn't a top 5 mid this season, let alone the best.

    Hasn't had credibility for a long time now. About 20 years

    Especially when it comes to goal kicking and delivery into the forward line

    2021 Norm Smith Medal would suggest otherwise.

    For a side that finished 2nd, the umpires couldn't find another player to give votes to.  Apparently even Ashcroft who was gods gift to football in much the same way as Daicos couldn't even score a vote.

    Similar story for Collingwood for that matter.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
