Petty? He played one of the worst key defensive roles at our club since probably a game from OMac in 2020. His body language stinks and got badly beaten in one-on-ones again.

    This is a tough call, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons.

    6.   Chandler:  A four quarter ‘workhorse’.  Ran hard all day, put his body on the line, and kicked three goals. One of his best games.
    5.   Oliver:  Slowly working back to his best.  Never gave up against the odds.
    4.   Salem:  Solid defensively, despite that he seems to have lost a yard.  Mostly precise delivery, and a few nice second efforts.
    3.   Bowey:  Solid game, spoilt by a couple of costly clangers.
    2.   Lindsay:  Very mature and composed for his age and experience. A big part of our future.
    1.    Henderson:  mostly nice vision and neat execution.  Will be around for a while, I expect.

    Not voting - very disappointed,

    Only one player can honestly hold his chin up!

    Didn't see the game, and probably won't, now, but good to see Lindsay featuring.

    Have enough people voted yet to end this toom?

    Working yesterday and just watched the replay, so I feel quite confident that five players were worthy.

    Sixth goes to one of our hardest workers.

    6 Chandler - This was his best game ever and showed that Goody's faith in him was worth the wait. I am one of those who queried his ability to be physically effective enough to play small forward and having some time in middle helped break up that role and he was mega clean, unlike teammates.

    5 Oliver - Very good at winning the footy (12 clearances) and one lovely left-foot goal. But he was part of a terrible bit of play after halftime when both he and Trac failed to stick tackles on Paul Curtis. But still very much a step back to his good old days of 2021.

    4 Lindsay - Laid the most tackles of any Demon and very effective with his disposals. Career only two games in, but gees he looks the part.

    3 Bowey - Made perhaps the biggest howler with a dreadful shanked kick when going long through the middle that resulted in a Zurhaar goal, but otherwise was very serviceable and he's made a great start to the season after a very good game last week.

    2 Salem - Neat and tidy all day and seemed to play close to his opponents.

    1 Sparrow - Yes I know he had no awareness when being chased down with a shot on goal, but at least he worked his butt off along with Viney. Both turned the ball over continuously, but Viney's left boot missed passes did more damage to us than Sparrow's errant ball blasts.

    Not worried about the votes.

    Was that a breakout game for Chandler? Sure looked like it. .Its taken a while but with some players when the penny drops  it hits the turf with a thud.

    He now knows what he is capable of doing.

    If that is his new standard going forward I will take that loss and look forward to Kosi joining him up forward.

    3 Myself for making the effort to go to Shizzen stadium and catching the train and being entertained by the antics of other travellers,which was better than what was dished up by the Dees on Sunday!

    2 Myself for staying till the end

    1 Myself for putting up with buses replacing trains and not getting home until after 9

    Definitely chandlers best game. Did not think he had this level in him, well done.

    other years he has started OK then faded hope this also changes.

    Windsor and Oliver both played well. 
     

    3 positives  make the result a little more palatable

    That Daniel Turner is 8th is bizarre and concerning.

    He touched the pill 7 times at 57% efficiency.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
