Brayshaw?? Not in my top 10 today. Serviceable at best.  

I thought he was pretty bloody good in the CB gets behind only Viney. 
Was pivotal in a lot I50 entries.

    Just got home.  What an epic game of footy.  Well done to both teams.  Max Gawn played perhaps the best second half I've ever seen today.  He imposed himself on the game in a way that only he can do.

    6. Gawn

    5. Viney.

    4. Petty

    3. Petracca

    2. Melksham

    1. Pickett

    JVR is going to be a very good footballer, which we all already knew.  He loves body contact - the hallmark of most of the better big forwards.

    6.  Gawn  -  a Colossus again.  What a leader!

    5.  Viney  -  behind Max, but another outstanding, ‘lead from the front’ performance

    4.  Petty -  6 goals and only 4 votes. A revelation.

    3.  Melksham  - getting better by the week since his return.

    2.  Neal-Bullen  -  a consistent work-horse who plays one of the hardest positions on the field.  Doesn’t get enough recognition.

    1.  Lever -  just typical Jake.

    Plenty of others who I couldn’t squeeze in including Riv, Lingers,Tracc & Hunter.

    6. Petty - come on guys, clunked it, kicked 6 and kicked a ripping snap

    5. Gawn - a colossus later in the game but was actually beaten early 

    4. Petracca - beast mode

    3. Viney - really solid midfield game 

    2. Rivers - got lucky with some Riv shanks but just loved his drive and energy 

    Hard for the 1 vote, could go Langdon, Lever, Gus, Melk, JVR, Pickett

    1. ANB settled ok Nibbler because he rebounded from early shockers to be good and did a job on Rioli who’s incredibly dangerous and had limited impact

    2 - Milkshake - accuracy

    1 - Roo - he’s gunna be a beauty

    ANB, Riv, Rick, Ed, Gus, Kozzie and everyone that pulled on the Red & Blue today. What a great win.!!!!

    A bit mystified by votes to Bowey and McVee. 

    Think with McVee people are confused whether he was responsible for any of Dusty's goals. I think only one was on McVee. The others were from the midfield where as far as I could see Brayshaw was responsible for him.

    By the numbers;

    6 Max Gawn

    5 Harrison Petty

    4 Jack Viney

    3 Christian Petracca

    2 Ed Langdon

    1 Alex Neal-Bullen

    Honourable mentions:

    Jake Melksham

    Jacob Van Rooyen

    Kysaiah Pickett

    Trent Rivers

    Jake Bowey

    Jake Lever

     

    Special mention;

    James Harmes after a woeful start became an effective team contributor.

    Adjudication;

    After the ledger was rather skewed for 3/4's the final balance was acceptable. Tiger fans may feel the rough end at the end but footy like life sucks sometimes.

    Broadcasters;

    Nathan Jones talks sense, Patrick, Rodney Dangerfield is much funnier, Luke Darcy had a belated conversation on the road to Damascus after being tiger terrific most of the afternoon.

    From the director's chair;

    A terrific game of footy with high stakes. The Demons' ability to absorb pressure and repeated momentum swings late in the season is really giving the faithful something to believe in. With Captain Max leading the victorious charge to the final siren. Bravo!

    6. Petty with 6. Also 7 marks inside 50, we don't win the game without him for mine.

    5. Gawn - 22 contested possesions for a ruckman with 9 in the last quarter is absolutely insane.

    4. Viney - That man is made of granite. 32 possessions, 9 tackles, 7 clearances. This is the best patch of his career.

    3. Trac - Possibly a few misses away from being higher. The master of the score involvement with 13.

    2. Lever - 9 Intercept possessions, tough day for the backline but he was great.

    1. Melksham - Played his role to absolute perfection and dobbed some beauties.

    Apologies Brayshaw, Rivers, Langdon.

    I’m not confused  at all. It was one of his poorer games.

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
