i know I’m probably missing an obvious one. Viney was good, Rivers ok.

Love the kudos that ANB is getting, he is in ripping form and finishing his work beautifully.

No gong for five-goal Fritter?

haha. I always list my votes without referencing any stats or anybody else. I honestly forgot about Fritter until I'd submitted my votes and then went 'doh' after i saw everyone else.

6-Viney-Epic, could have played footy in any decade in the last 100 years and would still be the toughest guy in it.

Fritsch-5 goals on return, is a movie plot you wouldn’t believe.

Trac-power through traffic.

ANB-in any starting 18 in the league.

Brayshaw-working so hard.

Rivers-hard to split with McVee but just.

Apologies to Langdon and Clarry and Sparrow and May

Clarry did lots of work, but felt like he is not releasing other players as well as he normally does.

I just want to say thank you DLers for all your votes. Without you this award doesn't happen.

 

There's always different perceptions of what a good game is and I really enjoy reading the number of different slants on performances. Give yourselves a pat on the back!

6.  Viney - strong all game, and along with Petracca, turned the game in our favour when it needed to be turned.

5.  Petracca - Viney’s main accomplice in turning the game our way, but had a quieter first half.

4.  Fritsch -  won the game off his own boot.  Welcome back Fritta, but no more ‘scares’ please.

3.  Neal-Bullen  -  continued to play his (very underrated) role to perfection.

2.  Brayshaw  -  ‘work horse’ continuing to produce, week in, week out.

1.  McVee  -  played like a top shelf veteran, as usual.

Langdon, Hunter and Rivers also earned a mention.

By the numbers;

6 Jack Viney

5 Bayley Fritsch

4 Christian Petracca

3 Alex Neal-Bullen

2 Clayton Olivier

1 Angus Brayshaw

Honourable mentions;

Jake Bowey

Edward Langdon

Steven May

Judd McVee

Kysaiah Pickett

Joel Smith

Special mention;

Jake Melksham all the best for a speedy recovery. Follow that dream Jake.

Adjudication;

Free kick deferential was favourable, play in front boys. Razor Ray deserves his cheque.

Opposition hyperbole watch;

Buddy farewell! It's been a long and spectacular career.

Broadcasters;

No real complaints. Adequate and none intrusive overall.

From the director's chair;

Admirable resilience and ability to arrest opposition momentum swings. As Goody says it is a 'hallmark' of this year's team. Go deep into September Demons!

If it wasn't for the broadcasters I wouldn't have known that Sydney was playing for a home final. How many times did it get mentioned? 10? 12?

I like that 28 players out of the 33 that have played have polled, says good things about the depth of the squad. would have though Viney would have been closer to Trac though.

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
