Melbourne v Greater Western Sydney

9 Finn Callaghan (GWS)
6 Lachie Whitfield (GWS)
6 James Peatling (GWS)
5 Tom Green (GWS)
2 Brent Daniels (GWS)
1 Clayton Oliver (MELB)
1 Toby Greene (GWS)
 

Kingsley.  Give the Dees players more credit. 
 

Goodwin. Please!!! Surely you’re joking. Only Clarry deserved a single vote. And no one else? Rivers. May. McVee. Any of these could have got votes.  
 

Dees lost by 2 points.  It was a nail biter !!! Could have been a Demons victory if ...  well so many ifs. 
 

This coaches system is flawed. So many biased votes being given by coaches, except for our Goody!!!

    Didnt see that GWS won by 10 goals in the paper.  Maybe Goody is sending a message

    Those votes seem fair to me. I'd have Clarry with a few more there, but none of our other guys deserved votes IMO.

    The first 4 had the most disposals.

    Toby had 3 goals 9 score involvements, Brent had 2 goals and 8 tackles, 8 score involvements etc.

    Rivers and ANB had good games, but below the ones listed above

    I can't disagree with those votes. We had a number of players do a few decent things and then disappear. The Giants players were more consistent across the game, and were clearly more influential when the game was in the balance through the third quarter and into the fourth.

    For me this bodes well for us as it shows an even contribution across the board from a very young team. I don't have any issues with the coaches votes as shown above.

    He's no front runner 'picket', unfortunately he's a great young player. Unfortunately because he plays for them not us...

    Yes to Rivers and maybe Mcvee.

    But certainly for me Lever was well and truly overlooked.

    Our second best after Oliver.

    On reflection, can you genuinely think of one MFC player that was in the best 5 players on the night?

    Meanwhile how did Hogan not get a vote? Tore the game apart in the first half of the last quarter.

    Agree BBP they had the 5-6 most influential players on the ground, however I felt that we had a greater spread of players that understood their roles and stepped up as required. Their midfielders and Hogan were better than our counterparts and we didn’t take our opportunities like they did. Yet we ran all over them late in the 4th and they ran all over us early in the fourth. For all their dominance they are only a 2 point better side than us, so we aren’t as [censored] as a lot on here are asserting. They are clever and know how to chip the ball around and round and string a chain of handballs together quite impressively and rack up a lot uncontested ball to stay in the game.

    And I also thought they were coached well.

    They responded really well to a good old fashioned cook at quarter time, and refused to allow May to take on Hogan. They somehow manipulated the defensive battles such that May would take Riccardi and T Mac would be on Hogan, and we know the rest of the story in the last quarter.

    I wish they  could get him in a trade but it would probably turn out that they couldn't fit him in with the players  already on the list and he'd move to Sydney after one season at Casey

    Again the point.  We lost by 2 points.  A whisker.  It could have gone either way.  

    Yet only one MFC player Oliver got 1 vote (of the 30 votes available).  Goodwin thought the Giants had the best 4 players , which is arguable, and Clarry got 1 conciliatory vote.  Maybe it was the medication!!! Kingsley presumably gave all his votes to his players.  
     

    The 4 blokes in yellow/lime also did well for the Giants, in the last qtr especially.

    • 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?
