2017 Season
1 | Knee. | ||
2 | Carl | Returned and won the ball very well in midfield, but missed quite a few targets that he must hit to take game to next level. | 7 |
3 | Geel | Eight effective disposals, one inside-50 and one clearance not enough for a player paid as well as he is. | 3 |
4 | Frem | Won the ball well again in the middle area of the ground but wasn’t overly damaging with his possessions. | 6 |
5 | Rich | 24 touches in midfield but didn’t hurt Richmond with many of them. One of a number of Dees who was sore in final term. | 5 |
6 | Ess | Chugged away in midfield mix to end with 29 touches. Had nine inside 50s and gained more metres than any other player. | 7 |
7 | Haw | Plods around for 28 disposals but debatable what sort of impact he has is debatable; 15 contested possessions and six clearances. | 7 |
8 | Adel | Another cog in the Melbourne midfield, they bat very deep and Tyson is a major reason why. | 6 |
9 | NM | Won plenty of ball and at least used it reasonably well; 26 disposals, four clearances and six inside-50s. | 7 |
10 | GCS | Handy enough in midfield and when Dees surged, had some good clearances. | 6 |
11 | Bye. | ||
12 | Coll | One of the few Melbourne mids to get a bit of it in first half and continued into second half. Some deft touches. | 7 |
13 | WB | Kicked first goal of the game and did some handy things in midfield, but ball use was a bit off. | 6 |
14 | WCE | A big ball winner. His seven clearances were important. | 8 |
15 | Syd | One of the few Demons to get a bit of the ball consistently across the night. Okay. | 6 |
16 | Knee. | ||
17 | Knee. | ||
18 | Port | Had 10 touches in the first term to set the tone. Kicking needed to be cleaner, but a good return. | 7 |
19 | NM | Huge first half with 20 possessions. Influence waned a touch, but wasn’t allowed as much room. | 7 |
20 | GWS | Got his hands on the ball a bit in midfield, but another who was caught flat-footed in GWS blitz. | 5 |
21 | StK | Did his bit without starring in midfield. Goal on the run in first term was a positive – needs to kick more. | 6 |
22 | Bris | Good ball winner early on at the clearances and used the ball well enough. Ended with 27 touches. | 7 |
23 | Coll | Clean in congestion when teammates weren’t. Really got rolling after half time with six inside 50s. | 7 |
2016 Season
1 | GWS | Had a bit of the ball, but kicking and decision making at times needed to be better. | 5 |
2 | Ess | Missed three gettable shots for goal. Not hitting any great heights at present. | 3 |
3 | NM | Started to run into a bit of form in midfield and kicking was much better. | 6 |
4 | Coll | Won plenty of ball but missed targets at times. Two goals and five inside-50s. | 6 |
5 | Rich | Great game highlighted by improved ball use and tough stuff inside contest. Five inside-50s and five clearances. | 8 |
6 | StK | Lovely goal and was productive in midfield. | 6 |
7 | GCS | Not as prolific as some of his counterparts, but used the footy well. | 6 |
8 | WB | Grabbed a lot of ball from stoppages and probably the Dees’ best. Importantly used ball well. | 8 |
9 | Ill. | ||
10 | Port | Back after missing a week with illness and struggled to pick up the tempo. | 3 |
11 | Haw | Massive opening half and continued it on in third. A bit quieter late but his best game this year | 9 |
12 | Coll | Used ball well all day between the arcs to set up teammates. Link player a feature. | 7 |
13 | Syd | Had Jack when in midfield and worked against the tide. Should learn a bit from Swans mids. | 5 |
15 | Adel | Steady accumulators game in the midfield but probably handballed a few too many times. | 6 |
16 | Frem | Made tacklers miss by standing still a few times. A consistent performer in midfield. | 7 |
17 | StK | Ran up and down on the spot after a bright start and one of many who got handball happy. | 4 |
18 | WCE | Prominent all day. Had 29 disposals and laid 10 tackles. | 7 |
19 | GCS | Superb in and around the stoppages and contests in midfield. A strong worker from start to finish. | 8 |
20 | Haw | Solid performance around the footy. Two final-quarter goals sealed the game. | 8 |
21 | Port | Seven tackles, seven clearances, three rebound-50s and a goal. | 8 |
22 | Carl | The one Melbourne midfielder to consistently get his hands on the ball. Strong again. | 7 |
23 | Geel | Continually kicked the ball to the Cats. When he’s off he’s right off. | 3 |
2015 Season
1 | GCS | Big at the stoppages and formed a great tandem with Jamar. Kicking scrappy. | 7 |
2 | GWS | Started well but like many others, had his wings clipped in second half Giants surge. | 5 |
3 | Adel | Eight clearances and eight tackles for the big-bodied midfielder. | 6 |
4 | Rich | Looked hampered in second half but was good around ball early on. | 6 |
5 | Frem | Quiet start but got into the game in second term. Made some bad decisions late. | 5 |
6 | Syd | Hasn’t been able to break free this season and was well held again. | 5 |
7 | Haw | Unable to break out of early season funk. Knee issue can’t be helping. | 4 |
8 | Knee. | ||
9 | Knee. | ||
10 | VFL | Given VFL run and responded with 33 quality possessions. | – |
11 | StK | Appeared a bit rusty and not covering ground like his did last year. | 4 |
12 | Geel | Looked like the player we saw in 2014. Centering kick to Stretch late was a pearler. | 7 |
14 | WCE | One of his better games this year but ran out of gas late. | 6 |
15 | Ess | Floated in and out of game. Seemed to be troubled by a knee but battled on. | 6 |
16 | Bris | Battled hard in midfield for his 20 touches. Six tackles a good sign. | 6 |
17 | StK | Hands on the ball a lot but didn’t cut through. Kicking disappointing. | 4 |
18 | Coll | Had more of an impact in the second half. Still made some poor decisions. | 7 |
19 | NM | Led team in disposals and had seven clearances and four inside-50s. | 7 |
20 | Hamstring. | ||
21 | Hamstring. | ||
22 | Hamstring. | ||
23 | Ankle. |
2014 Season
1 | StK | Impressive and will definitely be an asset. | 7 |
2 | WCE | Worked hard around the footy. Got more of it after half time. | 6 |
3 | GWS | Big first term and racked up 25 touches, but influence not huge. | 5 |
4 | Carl | OK but didn’t hurt Blues with his touches going forward. Four clearances. | 4 |
5 | GCS | Well contained after starting on pine, then subbed in third which was an odd move. | 4 |
6 | Syd | Didn’t have a stack of ball but battled hard in close against Swans stars. | 5 |
7 | Adel | His best game so far and showed why the Demons gave up the No.2 pick. | 8 |
8 | WB | Continues to make fools of armchair trade experts. Huge again, two goals. | 8 |
9 | Rich | Set up the win with his kicking. Booted two goals from 23 disposals. | 8 |
11 | Port | Starred again with 30 touches and two goals. A class act and not bad for a ‘nasty trade’. | 8 |
12 | Coll | Tagged by Macaffer and had a rare off day. | 4 |
13 | Ess | Continued to chug away in midfield and came to the fore after half time. | 6 |
14 | NM | Wasn’t able to impact game as he would like. Caught a few times trying to break tackles. | 5 |
15 | WB | Got his hands on ball in tight but had little room and tried to do too much at times. | 5 |
16 | Frem | Good battle with Mundy in midfield. Will have learned a bit over two hours. | 6 |
18 | Port | Back in form after a lean patch. Two huge goals and dominated the stoppages. | 8 |
19 | Bris | Busy around the stoppages to end with 27 touches. The best user of a poor bunch. | 6 |
20 | Haw | Best again for the Dees and would be sneaking up on N.Jones in best and fairest. | 7 |
21 | GWS | Very good in first term then was quietened by ex-teammates. OK late. | 6 |
22 | WCE | Continued fine season against the tide in midfield. Had little support however. | 6 |
23 | NM | Could he pip N.Jones for the best and fairest? Plenty of footy and two goals again. | 7 |

4 | NEAFL | Another to standout in the midfield. | – |
5 | NEAFL | Found plenty of the footy, good around stoppages. | – |
6 | Carl | Bullocking effort in the middle. Gave a bit to the cause. | 5 |
7 | GCS | A really good game showed he can win it inside and outside. | 7 |
8 | Bris | Provided a late highlight with huge run and gun goal – one of only four kids. | 5 |
