Demonland Player of the Year

Recommended Posts

Tough to find six players worthy of votes, but here goes.

6 - Nathan Carroll - was terrific all day. If it wasn't for him, we may have lost by a record margin.

5 - Cale Morton - looks like the classiest player in our entire list. Has a dip, never gives up and disposal is excellent.

4 - Paul Johnson - again looked better than White for most of the day, took some strong marks ... shame he missed a few shots on goal.

3 - Jeff White - better game from him, but PJ still ahead.

2 - Paul Wheatley - got lots of it, tried to be creative but disposal and decision making was ordinary.

1 - James McDonald - for playing 200 games.

Our nominated vote givers for today's game were:-

  • dees_rule_4eva

  • Maybe next year

  • demondomination

dees_rule_4eva has already voted. Maybe next year and demondomination must place their votes on the site by midnight tonight. Otherwise, I will accept the next two serious set of votes for the official counting.

As a result of our team's efforts today the weighted percentage for today's game is 41% - a minor improvement on last week.

No Way.

Sorry, but I thought that his intensity and delivery into the forward line were both way above that of almost every other Demon out there. Having said that, however, I reckon he is a forward who can rotate through the middle, not the other way around.

1.) Nathan Carroll---big chops, solid and tried his heart out

2.) Paul Johnson--solid, improving around the ground

3.) Cale Morton--silky, a little lanky but will improve

4.) Clint Bartam--surprised he hasnt been mentioned yet

5.) James McDonald--200 gamer, played with fight and courage

6.) Paul Wheatley--contributes, a couple of mistakes here and there

My votes for this round =

6 - Nathan Caroll - clearly the best

5 - Jeff White - 2 goals and improved around the ground

4 - Cale Morton - out of hope for the future

3 - Jamed McDonald - gave his all and took on opponents at the right time

2 - Brad Miller - showed aggression, attacked the ball and assited Carroll in the backline (often maligned here but credit where credit due)

1 - Cameron Bruce for his job (mainly 1st half) on the superstar Johnson who kicked goals when the game was won.

It was hard to choose between Bruce and Jones but I could not give the last vote to Jones (despite my appreciation for this guy and his endeavour) becaus ehe tries to run around too many people and more often than not gets caught. We all need to understand our limitations. I may be a bit harsh but I can't always give him votes.

Paul Johnson is the surprise leader by a little over half a vote at this early stage of the season. I can't wait for us to put in a competitive performance so that there will be more votes on offer but this is what happens when you play the sort of footy we're playing at the moment.

7.915 Paul Johnson

7.38 Nathan Carroll

6.955 Cale Morton

4.55 Nathan Jones

4.1 Jeff White

3.9 Brock McLean

2.925 Brent Moloney

2.77 Brad Miller

2.05 Paul Wheatley

2.05 James McDonald

0.65 Colin Garland

0.41 Cameron Bruce

0.325 Simon Buckley

0.325 Brad Green

LOL

Funny. But at least they are having a dip. More than I can say for Bruce and Robertson

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
