Very hard because we really didn't have a player who won their position.  We had some triers so here goes -

6. Van Rooyen - 8 marks, a couple of goals, looked like he put in a decent effort.

5. May - some rubbish stat padding but wasn't disgraced and managed to get the Freo fans riled up so points for that.

4. Petty - was decent around the ground but as long as his backside points to the ground he no ruckman. Liked his contested marking.

3. McVee - he played another solid game.  He's composed under pressure and uses it well.

2. Billings - did more in less than a half than most did in a full game.

1. Langdon - ran a lot, got to position well and was a useful link

Absolutely shocking effort by our midfield - Viney, Oliver, Sparrow, ANB, Rivers, Pickett.  As poor a display as you could see.

Lever - just about a career worst game.

    Votes? For that performance?

    Maybe 1 to Langdon for trying to teach Fritsch that the game involves running, chasing and tackling.

    6   McVee. Stood up under fierce heat. Kid is so composed

    5   McDonald. The wide vision on TV was damning. On transition the only bloke running with intent was 94 year old TMac

    4   JVR. Sadly is the second best ruck at the club. Competed against the odds & showed a bit forward

    3   Petty. Sadly is the third best ruck at the club. Competed against the odds & showed a bit around the ground

    2   May. Had a crack, showed some passion & comittment

    1   Billings. Also damning. Did more in a half than most of our mids contributed for the game

    Yeah I was hoping no-one would vote out of protest.

    6 - Jacob van Rooyen tried his guts out

    5 - Steven May despite some blues

    4 - Harrison Petty good around the ground plus he re-signed to ‘27

    3 - Ed Langdon our running man

    2 - Judd McVee great awareness

    1 - Trent Rivers just edged out Billings

    Our midfield badly mauled by Freo and penalised by umps as well, our much vaunted backline were badly beaten by Freo’s as well, junior football stuff, who was guarding the goal square and Jake Lever you were so out of touch today what the hell, outmarked, outplayed jumping at shadows.

    Casting votes today is very similar to my Year 6 maths exam ie. aImost impossible!!
    All of our boys lowered their colours, in a performance I seriously want to forget, but here goes:

    6.   May  -  under immense pressure all game given the amount of ball coming in, and the complete absence of our hallmark ‘team defence’.  Battled manfully, and won or halved some contests.   
    5.  JvR  -  worked hard, whether ruck or forward.  Commendable effort against huge odds.
    4.   Petty  -  clearly not a ruckman, but battled hard all game, and contested marking around the ground (especially in the second half), was a worthy effort.
    3.   Langdon  -  ran all day (again!), and should be commended for his work-rate.
    2.   McVee  -  solid in the face of insurmountable odds.  Showed his usual good composure when he had the ball.
    1.    Rivers  -  little influence as a mid, but improved considerably when he went to HB in the second half.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
