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: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
