6, 5 and 4 Max the Magnificent - a superlative all-round display.

3 Petracca - but where was he in the first half?

2 Oliver - worked hard but not always effectively.

1 Lever - some good intercepts.

0 - the entire forward line.

6 Gawn - Beaten in the first few plays by Cox but once Brayshaw went down just lifted and showed just amazing leadership.

5 Sparrow - with Trac and Viney quiet in the first half, Sparrow was just so hard at it and  showed what a bull he is. This game showed that he is now an elite midfielder. He's not as clean as others, but he's just so tough.

4 May - just a general down back and held firm all night with one or two exceptions.

3 Petracca - quiet first half but lifted and was just amazing in the final term - albeit with a couple of generous frees.

2 McVee - Just so smooth and our only defender with the pace to go on Hill after his early onslaught. Such was the quality of his work, it makes you wonder how come Salem is getting a game.

1 Oliver - prolific so he gets a vote, but there was a lot of 2017 Olly back in his game. he didn't seemed to sense when to go forward and when not to and I am still trying to remember when he hit a forward on the lead. As for his shot on goal it just lacked confidence from the outset with a couple of stutter steps. He just has to go to bed and realise  that when he's positive he's the best player in the game and he's allowed to make mistakes if he's trying to make the matchwinning pass.

6. Gawn - easily the best player on the ground.  I still believe he'll lead this team to the 2023 flag.

5. Sparrow - this guy is a true warrior.  His second half was excellent and he stepped up in Brayshaw's absence

4. May - controlled the back half along with...

3. Bowey - a really good rebound game.

2. Petracca - a frustrating game I thought.  Lacked intensity early but came rattling home.

1. Oliver - just on weight of numbers.  I'm not sure why he has reintroduced the 2017 circle work back into his game. Needs to drive hard forward.

6. Gawn

The distance between Earth and Mars to the next player

5. Oliver (but please don't kick a 55 metre drop punt to the same place EVERY time you kick inside F50)

4. Petracca (I rated him a bit lower due to ineffective 1st half)

3. Bowey

2. May

1. Sparrow

I do not understand people voting for Kozzie. He was appalling for much of the night with little intensity, looking disinterested, or more interesting in tackling and bumping after the event, rather than getting the ball. He is a real worry in finals for some reason.

Why does Lever get votes?

He butchered it in the first quarter.

Never tackled and managed only 3 narky with 11 touches. Got in Mays way a couple of times too.

Also Sparrow was horrible the first half.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
