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

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
