Christian Petracca is the runaway leader of the Demonland Player of the Year and has a 45 vote lead over Jack Viney as the injured Clayton Oliver and Max Gawn sit in 3rd and 4th place respectively. Yo

6.  Gawn:  fittingly, the ‘supremo’ in ‘Ruck Round’.

5.  Petracca:  the ‘dynamo’ with the power to consistently change things up, when needed 

4.  Viney:  continued to carry our midfield on his broad shoulders in the absence of Clarry.

3.  Brayshaw:  love the consistency he is providing as a mid.

2.  Pickett:  the magic is still there, and the gameday ‘influence’ is returning at the right time of the year.

1.  Neal-Bullen:  the usual ‘Nibbler’ work rate, with 3 goals to boot.

Very, very unlucky:  Hunter

Very unlucky:  Chandler

6.  Viney 

5. Petracca 

4. Gawn

3. Rivers - some might query this but he had zero turnovers - contested and competed hard all day - ran through the lines 

2. Pickett 

1. Hunter 

apologies to Brayshaw Chandler & ANB 

lots of okay players who stepped up in 2nd and 3rd quarters (most were in a coma in 1st qtr and asleep in the end) 

Just don’t be fooled by stats. Many of some players possessions were little ineffective handballs to players under pressure (Harmesy, Gus, Hunter, JJ).

Good work, DOF. So good, I’m copying you!

Christian Petracca crossed the 200 point threshold at the weekend and he’s 57 points in front of second placed Jack Viney and 88 ahead of Clayton Oliver in third. If we were talking about mere mortals then I would rule out a meteoric climb to first place by Clarrie (especially given that, barring us placing off in a drawn grand final, there are a maximum of six games and 108 points available). But in his case, you never know.

i thought drawn grand finals were a thing of the past now, and they just played extra time?

May the late season renaissance continue. Must have crashed the umpire's mad monday party last season. Not to have been given a free in the last quarter. No goals but five tackles!

Adjudication;

see above

Broadcasters;

Enjoyed the balanced commentary basking in the lovely sunny afternoon.

From the director's chair;

Given the number of slips and spills by players at Blundstone Arena, on what seemed a perfect surface. The club should consider getting the boot-studder out of retirement, modern screw-ons of course are preferred.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
