    1. Bowey. I reckon the margin would have been much more without his effort today.

    1. Langford. Amid all the horror of today, he was very, very good.

    1. Langdon - pity his disposal was so poor

    1. Sharp. Getting better each game.

    1. Chandler.

    1. Oliver - horrendous skills and decision making but one of the few who ran and tried all day.

    I understand your amazement, because his disposal and decision making was so ordinary, but he ran and tried better than most today.

    He gave up at times, but I have said this for a long now. Oliver has the best below-the-need ball control since Williams, but he is a shocking kick, lacks football decision-making abilities and as the game gets quicker, like Viney, are liabilities to a team.

    1 - Rivers for his 9 marks

    Jeezuz Matt Rowell really took us apart in the midfield today.

    Sadly, contributing my ‘two bob’s worth’ to this thread is becoming harder, and harder by the week. Such a bloody shame, especially after a pre-season that had me brim full of confidence ……… but anyway, here goes:

    6 - Bowey: stood up, where most of his teammates failed. Showed loads of courage, awareness and anticipation, and used the ball very well under pressure.

    5 - Langdon: ran all day, put his head over it, and won plenty of hard ball. Might have challenged Bowser for our best if he hadn’t given up possession so often by ‘bombing away’.

    4 - Langford: showed plenty to like in his first full game. Great footy IQ and skill beyond his youth. Lots to build on!

    1. Chandler: great work ethic, and a very solid performance following last week’s best ever game.

    1. Gawn - probably broke even with a very good ruckman.

    1. Oliver - never gave up, and fumbled and bumbled his way to a not particularly productive high(ish) possession count.

    Suns destroyed us. Embarrassing skill errors. Easy soft 15 metres passes then turnovers. Dees very poor in the midfield especially. At the clearance and in contested footy. Trac and Clarry and JV7 looked 2nd rate. Rowell and Anderson just ran away from them.

    Votes ?

    6- Bowey

    5- Langford

    4- Langdon

    3- Sharp

    … that’s enough

    Good work, DOF. I concur.

    Dearest DLand

    You need to fix being able to quote you and then add things to your message before I post my own.

    Otherwise I may make some geese here calling themselves some nales.

    Or changing their words.. 😜 😜 😜

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
