    I'm really surprised at the love for Gawny today. Obviously he had some great moments but the couple of kicking clangers really were very poor and hurt a lot.

    Also, I thought that Cameron had more impact around the ground linking for the pies and got into more score involvements.

    1. May. Back to his best the last fortnight and an absolute wall and intercepting well.

    1. Langdon. Wonderful shut down role on someone who sadly is a hell of a ball user - although he's a seagull. Yes we lost Lingers run and carry but it was worth it to stop Daicos who's stats were inflated by some very suspicious decisions going his way and an ordinary 50m penalty.

    1. Kozzy. Three amazing goals and took his chances when he needed to. Probably sometimes tried to hard and got stuck in traffic but I'd rather him doing this then bombing it to no on.

    1. Oliver. He really really really just wants the ball more than the next bloke and one some incredibly one on ones. Good hands at times but still lets us down with the dump kicks occasionally.

    1. Turner. Just good hands, good decisions and tough nut of a player. A lot to love about him

    1. Bowey. Don't recall much damage from the pies smalls and this guy just keeps on negating and rebounding really well. Has been great all year.

    Special mention to Sparrow today as I saw him really going hard at Houston in a defensive role. Not sure if he was on him all game but I just noticed him with him a lot and can't recall Houston rebounding much today which was surprising with our ordinary delivery.

    All of the Age, Herald Sun and AFL.com listed Gawn as our best. In the Herald Sun he received 1 vote (Howe and J Daicos got the 3 and 2), in the Age he received 7 (Howe and J Daicos scored 8). Incidentally, Gawn is now outright second in The Age Player of the Year award behind Bailey Smith. So it seems there was a lot of "love for Gawny" everywhere yesterday, not just on Demonland (with a few notable exceptions). Cameron had three disposals to half time and got 19 hitouts for the game. He rated 10 on CD ranking points to Gawn's 17.6.

    Great team performance, great coaching performance, disappointing result. Thanks umps🤮

    1. May - best game for years. Elliott had little impact.

    1. Langdon - sacrificed his usual role for a masterful hard tag on N. Daicos.

    1. Gawn - another dominant performance in the ruck, and behind the ball (especially in the last).

    1. Turner - solid as a rock. He’s a beauty!

    1. Bowey - continued his stellar season.

    1. Oliver - his competitive nature and ball winning ability were on show. If only he could kick!

    Lots of commendations including Petracca, Pickett, McVee & Fritsch.

    I hate it when we lose games we should win ( albeit with better application) like yesterday or don’t turn up to play like Alice Springs. Makes me feel sheethouse.

    IF we had those the season was Rosie

    Looking good !

    Still there are always learnings

    @Demonland sorry all Demonlanders. I can’t give Fritsch a vote or kudos. He needed to go back and nail that goal in the last quarter. 20 metres out slight angle. Crucial mistake. We had the momentum. I know he kicked one from the pocket but his simple errors are costing us.

    You can't really know who McRae and Goodwin voted for. Nevertheless, who do you think from Melbourne should have been awarded votes ahead of Pendlebury and Sidebottom?

    • 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.
