    I am taking the ballot paper in the polling booth, folding it and stuffing it in the box without touching pencil to paper.

    First time I've never voted, but I can't nominate a some of these players and then justify it - if someone challenged me!

    We had a few triers today.  I'll give it a go.

    6. Salem - thought he held up well.  Only 6 contested but went at 78%

    5. Gawn - despite the rubbish commentary, Gawn defeated both Darcy and Jackson when either was against him.  The damage they did was largely against Petty, or when Jackson was forward.  Down in clearances, but maintained the rage. Max is a victim of his own insane standards.

    4. Viney - again only 8 contested but tackled well.  Tried hard

    3. Petracca - low contested numbers as well but worked hard.

    2. McDonald - kicked a couple of goals

    1. McVee - absent in the first quarter but put up solid numbers in the last three and went at 100%.

    Votes. Votes?  Really. 92 point loss. 
    Hard job. It was a horror show. #Freo92

    6- McVee  100% efficiency.  Held Walters. 8 intercept marks. Zero stupid turnovers. Tried all day 

    5- Viney.  Tried and fumbled and fought and tackled and fumbled and tried and slipped and tried.  Tried tried tried. 

    4- Petracca. Because he cared. Looked frustrated by teammates who guarded grass and no pressure. Kicked nice goal.  

    3- Gawn. Because he’s a warrior and tried all day. Freo ran him ragged  

    2- Langdon.   Because he kicks the ball. Others just handball to no one. Tried his guts out.  
     

    1- Tomlinson.  Tried all day under barrage. Kicked well. 90% disposal efficiency 

     

    negative votes to the forwards Petty Fritsch McAdam Turner Chandler. 
    negative votes to turnovers from Bowey, Salem, Riv, Sparrow who gave up the footy all day.

    Bowey 6!! No way. 6 missed tackles. 3 turnovers led to Freo goals. He missed a player from 15 metres away. Turnover. Freo goal.  Was often lazy with tackling and disposal. Shameful today.

    In a game which we will all want to forget, finding four quarter winners wearing red and blue was impossible.  My votes are more directed at players who can hold their head up, notwithstanding an extraordinarily poor team performance.

    6.  Gawn -  tried his guts out for the full 100 minutes, despite being bashed from pillar to post.  Probably broke even in the ruck despite the odds, and was solid(ish) around the ground.     
    5.  Salem  -  worked hard and probably came close to breaking even, despite the onslaught of ball coming into our backline.   Disposal under pressure was good, and there was certainly lots of pressure.    
    4.  McVee  -  reliable under pressure for most of the game, and along with Salo, he was one of few who could make sound decisions, and hit targets out of defence.
    3.  Tomlinson  -  caught out of position a few occasions (which was understandable given the number of times the ball was coming in), but he seemed reasonably ‘cool in the crisis’, and used it pretty well.  Our best tall defender.    
    2.  Langdon  -  another ‘workhorse’ Langdon effort.    
    1.   Viney  -  showed pride in the jumper, and never dropped his head.

    I’m now turning to a bottle of Shiraz, in the hope that it will help me find a skerrick of solace in that dreadful performance.

    I think that 15 meter turnover was miscalled actually - it was Rivers. Thought he was one of the few who showed some grit and courage, and occasional composure. But you know, most sucked, so…

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
