    i wouldn't agree with GOTY, Yze and Motlop's bananas ran rings around the winner, although Lloyd's kick was very clever with only a few seconds on the clock

    I agree, and i dont understand the theory behind it either. What use is the car to them after its been thrashed around by a 20 year old P plate footballer for 12 months anyway. They'd do well to gets half its original value on re-sell. They might as well just give him the car or at least donate it to charity or something.

    And to think that he almost didn't make it past Mark of the Week after it was a "tie" between he and Staker.

    The voting system needs to be changed.

    Not only does it favour the clubs with more supporters, but a club like West Coast would (at a guess) have a relatively younger demographic who are more likely to vote for such things on the internet.

    Well done Newton

    I'm absolutely stunned that Lloyd's goal won it. While it was a good goal, even i would be able to kick it with a bit of luck

    So many skillful goals this year. Players snapping from impossible angles, kicking banana kicks from outside 50, dodging one, two and three players before scoring, and they pick the goal which any 5 year old with a bit of luck could pull off

    Interesting - why would you guess that WCE would have a relatively young demographic? I'm not taking a pot shot, and I have no idea whether you're right or wrong. I'm just wondering what made you think that would be the case...success in the 90s plus a young club?

    It's a guess.

    Like you said, the fact that they are a young club would have seen a big rush of young people jump on board compared to a club like Melbourne who are more likely to have "generations" of supporters.

    Either way, West Coast still have more supporters, young or old.

    Without doubt, premiership success is a catalyst for young supporters to follow your club.

    However, when WCE started it had a monopoly on the WA players and supporters in a football mad state until Freo came into the competition.

    What a champion. I loved the first game against Essendon, always showed promise and improved a billion throughout the season. well done mate

    What makes it impressive is the fact that he won it in just his fourth game of AFL football.

    That's huge. What a thought eh? Although it's worth considering he had his debut 3 years after he was recruited...

    I wonder what the record is for least games, or yougest player to take MOTY?

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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?
