B.O.G

Recommended Posts

Who did you guys think was bog against hawks??

Lots of good idivual efforts all the way round.. the experienced and the young seem to be gelling a lot better now..

3 Votes = Bate for prescion skill execution and that kick arse tackle.. tried hard all day

2 votes = Aussie very inspirational stuff and made space like a bad smell lol forward pressure was great and sparked the boys

1 vote = couldnt split garland/Green garland for his poise and speed in the backline really started a lot of drive. greeny seemed to have a floating role so was expected to rack up possesions..but showed bravery a few times and kept a level head all day. and his feet.. made a huge difference to our backline.

Would do a poll but cant be fagged

yeah i agree with mclean .. thought brucey looked rattled all day and had some very dodgy disposals.. but i was more just wanting to see who people would vote for 3,2,1 style and what reasons..

I find it the easyiest way to see their opinions without any arguements lol

Brock,Green,Miller, Warnock all good games. Thought tackling and presure was fantastic today. Backline stood up and worked hard and together.WELL DONE MELB you showed something today. AND UP YOURS KENNETT YOU [censored]>

3 Bate Sadly missed in first 6 rounds and is getting better n better. Will win a Bluey within the next 3 years

2 McLean, Started us off in the 1st quarter with 13 possessions and was efficient all day without the usual clangers

1 Take your pick , Davey n Aussie awesome, Moloney best game for a year but I`d give it to Garland for stopping Buddy today. Most thought he would kick 10 today including myself

im going to really cop some here for saying this but i really hope greeny has a great year. If its true, that he wants to leave we will get mkore for him if he has a good year obviously. Somehow me thinks DB wants to keep him tho.

3. Bate

2. Jones

1. Aussie

special mention: Miller, Garland, Green and McLean.

He doesn't have much support on this board, but I agree with you. Some of his best games were as acting captain. I think he thrives with the added responsibility. Neitz rates his leadership qualities too, that's enough for me.

3- Mclean, just loved his game, phenomenal first quater.

2- Garland, great on Buddy. I was terrified of this game facing Roughead, Williams and Buddy without Rivers. The kid was great and really level headed.

1- Take your pick, Aussie, Beamer, Bate or Miller.

I don't want to bring the mood of this thread down because the boys all put in a great effort but I just don't know how long I can stand watching Jamar...

I remember more of Green's , Bate's and Aussie's possessions than I do of anyone else's. That's usually how I decide my B.O.G... if a bloke has only 15 touches but most are effective, goal saving/assisting possessions I think he has a lot more impact on the game than a bloke who has 30-35 touches that don't stand out in my memory bank.

So my Top-3 B.O.G's would be Green, Bate and Aussie (in no particular order). Taking nothing away from blokes like Brock, Miller, Beamer, Garland and Warnock though... all performed well.

No wonder he's not captain if he's not in the leadership group, doesn't work the other way around

McLean was our best today IMO.........didn't stop hitting in hard all day......I thought Moloney was excellent too.....best game I have seen him play for a while......he was tough in the middle all day.....26 touches and 9 tackles.......that's a fair days work!

McLean and Bate were both pretty good, Green and Bruce also had solid games. For me the performances of Garland (who now has taken the mantle of our best young tall defender), Wona, Buckley & Warnock were most pleasing. I had written off a couple of guys in that group, and I'm very, very happy to be proven wrong, hope it continues.

My most dissappointing effort was Miller late in the game. He was good early but with Holland playing injured it was a good opportunity to stand up in the last quarter - take some contested marks in the forward 50 and kick a couple of goals, sadly it didn't happen.

He teases us with glimpses of what he can achieve.

3 - Bate

2 - Buckley

1 - McLean

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
