Recommended Posts

I was at a Christening unfortunately today.

SEN had Bruce as our best and only winner for the number he did on Stevens. Yet he's not recognised as I post.

Hmmm

2. Whelan

1. Rivers

Sylvia beat Fisher created of half back then did OK in the last up forward. Mclean would have been best but considering the impact of Judd he had to be put down a liitle.

Why am I getting singled out? Plenty other people gave him 6.

Besides, if you think McLean got destroyed by Judd, you have obviously never seen Judd on fire. Faster, more experienced players have suffered much worse at the hands of Chris Judd. His 3 goals were very influential, as was some of his forward delivery, but he certainly didn't rip us apart like I have seen him rip us apart before.

McLean had a huge job to do. To his credit he didn't go too defensive, and still got plenty of his own ball, while at the same time limiting Judd to the best of his ability. McLean more than held his own in the clearances, but obviously struggled for pace in the one on one situations.

Very few, if any, can stop Judd, and not many find themselves amongst the top possession winners while playing against him.

I would love to give green 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 votes but it is against the rules. My votes are:

6 - Green (you guessed it) - he tries his guts out and i hope they leave him on the HF line

5 - Rivers - has the smarts

4 - Austin - his chasing was great today and is one of the best disposals in the team

3 - McDOnald - primarily for the chase down

2- Bruce - easily accounted for Stevens

1 - Bartram - would have like to see him on Judd

Mclean was well beaten by Judd - cannot give him votes. For those who thought Judd did not rip us apart, in the words of "The Castle", tell them they're dreaming

Judd having a good game and his opponent having a good game are not mutually exclusive. McLean went head to head with Judd, and came out second best (because Judd is a better player), but that doesn't mean his game was bad. His role was more than just "stop Judd" and I think he did a damn good job.

If the role was just "stop Judd" it would have been Bartram or McDonald playing on him, not our best ball winner.

Off the ball, Judd killed him and he was probably only running at about 70-80%.

McLean wasn't bad, but Judd is in a league of his own.

if he got 'destroyed' why did you give him 3 votes?

judd is in his own league yes. but that isnt a reason why not to give mclean votes. the issue here is 'who were our best players' not 'how good was judd?'

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
