Not for one minute suggesting Maxy has had an AA year, but the bloke almost universally tipped to take his spot, Tim English is only 3 coaches votes ahead him, after Maxy missed three games, was off in the first minute of another one and has spent most of the season sharing ruck duties.

Not sure.  I just checked English's total as a matter of interest.  


Well done to Kozzie. Gone from a 4 possession game to equal BOG in the space of a fortnight.

Kozzie hitting form can only be a good thing as we head into finals.

If Max keeps this up for the rest of the season, as in getting 1st or 2nd BOG, then he has to factor as AA ruckmen. English gets the stats but rarely has a significant impact on a game. The AFLCA voting will definitely factor in the decision making. 

I've been able to understand the voting in most games this year, but not so this week. There is no way we win that game without Viney.

 

Maxy was our best player. His tap work in particular was top drawer. Dropped a couple of marks he would usually snaffle but other than that was very good.

I gave him top votes in the Demonland Player of the Year but both coaches obviously didn't rate him that highly.  He had a very quiet third quarter - 3 disposals. Maybe that factored into it. A strange one.

Me too!  Jack was good for most of the game, but practically dragged us over the line on his own broad shoulders in the last quarter.  Surely that counts.  Amazing!

i think he is often under estimated. Arguably  our most important player since Clarries demise.

Oh [censored], I hadn't heard. How sad. When is the funeral?

Yes.  It will be interesting to see how many Brownlow votes he polls, both for the Adelaide game, and over the last 6 weeks.

As @roy11 noted, I have them on my site and have just updated them for round 19. You can view a lot more stats under "Select statistical categories".

Had a few costly turnovers in the last qtr.

Gawn played a good game and deserved a vote or two but not BOG imv.
Gawn missed the goal in the last quarter from 30 metres out. Beautiful lace out pass from Trac.  It was hugely disappointing as it would have sealed the result and killed the crows. He missed and they rebounded to setup the frantic last 2 minutes.  
I think Viney carried us on his shoulders over the line. Not sure Goody can see much from the boundary line (???) 

Personally would have had Viney but Max was in my top 3 for the DL votes. No major surprises, good to see Gus get some plaudits.

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
