Didnt even make the top 10. DISGRACEFUL. The voters should be ashamed. Bell was easily one of our best 3 or 4 all year

 

another year Travis Johnstone doesnt make top10 b&f!!!

absolutely pathetic!!!

thatis why he should be traded while he still has market value!

he is a disgrace. for someone of his talent, he should be top 5 in our bnf every year, and should be taking the afl by storm.

shame on u Johnstone. only 1 top10 bnf in 9 years at the club!

also,

good on Matthew Bate. i thought he had a fantastic year. he will hold down CHF in the future and will absolute dominate. sticky hands, great footy brain and good goal sense.

Bate, Mclean, Sylvia and Rivers and the only 4 players on our list capable of being A+ players.

let's hope they perform better than our potential stars of old (johnstone/green/bruce) who never became A- graders

agree... i dont think he was worthy of top 5.... but he did play some good games and really developed..... mclean out... and slip bell in at 8

swap white with davey and brown with robbo

 

Im not a fan of Bell but how McLean made a spot and not Daniel is stupid to say the least

Absolute joke!

Belly, even though he missed some games through injury, was our best and most consistent defender all year. Or is this like the Brownlow medal, no votes given to defenders?

Davey making the top 5 is puzzling. He had a horrible year, in fact, his worst year to date.

At least the people in charge of voting are no longer a part of our club. I think it's fair to say that October 1, 2007 will go down as a day to forget for the MFC.


The results absolutely reflect the year from hell that we had .

IMO for Bate to come third and Davey fifth suggests masssive dilemmas were faced by the voting panel in their struggles to find anyone worthy of giving votes to - the former was very ordinary and the latter was very poor .

Bell should be in and above davey, bruce, mclean, brown and robbo. my top 5 would have gone

mcdonald

jones

green

bell

white

thats [censored], those who awarded those should never do so again.

 

How many games did he miss? He had a really good year, but maybe his missed games cost him too much.

I would have stopped awarding anything after the top 4.

The rest didn't deserve to be classified as top 10.

In fairness:

1. James McDonald - 21 games, 489 possessions @ 23/game (1), 131 tackles (1), 3 goals

2. Nathan Jones - 21 games, 365 possessions @ 17/game, 86 tackles (2), 10 goals

3. Matthew Bate - 19 games, 294 possessions @ 15/game, 94 marks @ 5/game, 59 tackles, 19 goals (4)

4. Brad Green - 18 games, 384 possessions @ 21/game (3), 117 marks @ 6/game (4), 49 tackles, 13 goals

5. Aaron Davey - 18 games, 258 possessions @ 14/game, 74 tackles (3), 24 goals (3)

6. Cameron Bruce - 16 games, 377 possessions @ 23/game (4), 96 marks @ 6/game (5), 66 tackles (5), 9 goals

7. Jeff White - 22 games, 356 possessions @ 16/game, 127 marks @ 6/game (2), 461 hitouts, 41 tackles, 7 goals

8. Brock McLean - 14 games, 254 possessions @18/game, 60 tackles, 4 goals

9. Nathan Brown - 19 games, 416 possessions @ 22/game (2), 137 marks @ 7/game (1), 46 tackles, 3 goals

10. Russell Robertson - 15 games, 169 possessions @ 11/game, 85 marks @ 6/game, 10 tackles, 42 goals (1)

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
