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.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
