Yes he can, and he's almost a certainty to finish in the top 3.

Reward for effort if nothing else.

He is on the bottom of every pack, every contest, every week.

Correct on all fronts. Will definitely be a massive chance for the Bluey, though perhaps Bruce may have him covered. As for most Melbourne votes in the Brownlow, I tend to agree.

Will they give him a rising star nomination?

He was our best player today but hasnt got a hope in Hades of winning the Best and Fairest - White and McDonald would be streets ahead of him

Why would White and Junior be "streets ahead" ????? Whitey in particular has hardly dominated in the ruck! Junior has also had a quiet year compared with 2006 ( but who hasnt!).

From an internal viewpoint Godders is one of MFCs best players in 2007 as he has done the tagging jobs very effcetively morst weeks (although well beaten last night) and he one of the few MFC players who runs hard all game ( lst night and esp against the Tiggers).

Very few have performed all year and Jonesey is right up there - hard at it an has been effective!! One of MFC's few winners in 2007. So has very chance.

It will be a (further) travesty if he doesn't get the nod this week. Only 5 players scored higher Champion Data points this round.

i know a lot of you are going to laugh, however i think godfrey is in with a chance.

Until this week, he has been our most consistant, and has got the majority of his jobs done. I'm not a massive godfrey fan, respect his heart and work ethic, but that would sum up our season if he won it.

Godfrey being a chance is why we are 2nd bottom.

When a player of the skills of Godfrey wins your B&F you SHOULD throw out the baby with the bath water.

Of course Jones can win the B&F and he may well do so.......

Is it right to say he is one of the few who have actually played every game this year? I have lost count but if so then he is already ahead of the rest.

So that, plus his fantastic attitude and effort, and consistently good form, yep he will be right up there when the votes are read out.

And if he wins then it will be a fantastic and well deserved victory :D !!!

Correct! The only other season Godfrey had a top 5 finish was 2003 when we qualified for a priority pick. Looks like history repeating! I don't mind him but he needs to be somewhere between our 18th and 24th best player not top 5 - which I'm sure he will be this year.

He missed the Sydney game in round 5.

I think Carroll, White and McDonald are the only blokes to play every game this year.

Just on a possible Rising Star nomination for Jones, is he even eligible? He won a nomination last year against the Kangaroos, so does that cancel him out?

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
