    Im shocked that some people have Max over Trac. We don't even get a chance at the come back without Trac. For most of the game, that was one of the best solo performances I have seen in a long time. Max was absolutely fantastic, of course.

    I went Max because he was great for 4 quarters. Trac was missing for 10 minutes in the second when they were charging. Although he did come straight back into it and kicked one to show how dangerous he was. I think you can go either way for me it’s more consistent effort vs outright brilliance

    You're welcome to be shocked but 21 contested possessions and 10 clearances for a ruckman isn't good. It's out of this world good.

    Thought Hunter might have picked up a few 1's & 2's.  Felt he was solid all night (26 possessions)

    DE rating wasn't kind to him but I didn't think he was wasteful

    Had the most metres gained by any player on the night (559) 2nd best none other than Joe Daniher with 490

    Top 3 standout and then any number of players could have filled the next 3

    6 - Gawn (a colossus all night)

    5 - Petracca (brilliant)

    4 - Viney (a beast)

    3 - Melksham (dangerous & productive)

    2 - Brayshaw (solid)

    1 - Hunter (solid)

    Unlucky - Pickett, McVee, Bowey, Rivers

    One of the easier BOG's of all time I would've thought.

    6 Gawn

    5 Petracca - he was excellent and the the third best man on the ground behind Max and Daniher who was very nearly a matchwinner for the Lions.

    4. Melksham - such a clever player, sometimes too cute but did a good job on Andrews and then proved to be the matchwinner.

    3. Viney - an amazing defensive and offensive game, again!

    2.Brayshaw - Gus doing the team things again

    1. Pickett - Koz was back to somewhere near his best.

    I really liked Rivers, Bowey and McVee.  I thought they displayed great poise and footy IQ.  All three of them could easily feature.

    By the numbers;

    6 Max Gawn

    5 Christian Petracca

    4 Jack Viney

    3 Angus Brayshaw

    2 Jake Melksham

    1 Kysaiah Pickett

    Honourable mentions;

    Lachlan Hunter

    James Jordan

    Steven May

    Alex Neal-Bullen

    Trent Rivers

    Tom Sparrow

    Special mention;

    Judd McVee

    Adjudication;

    Bounce downs at the centre square were by and large acceptable. Balls up were a bit of a  balls up, straight up and vertical gentlemen. Timid parabolic attempts are unacceptable. Last one of the match suggests senior umpire Nichols still has it in for Max.

    Opposition hyperbole watch;

    Eric 'the Hipster' Wood gets this week's reality check award for disputing the final contest of the match. The ball landed on Jake Lever's chest. Collect your free eye check from specsavers. A monocle is prescribed.

    Broadcasters;

    BT managed to read the tea leaves correctly during the last quarter. Predicted a Demon victory with two minutes to go. Nathan Jones' special comments were intelligent and insightful.

    From the director's chair;

    A come from the clouds win that will inspire belief.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
