well Yze Magic, any thoughts on this comment of yours?

If Chris Johnson somehow transforms into a good league footballer that can impact games or even just play a role, then I would say that Dean Bailey is a greater teacher of men than Jesus himself once was.

Alas, the chances of Chris Johnson becoming a serious league footballer are about 4 billion to 1.

Can Dean Bailey turn water into wine?

We will see this Sunday, cos this is surely Johnsons last chance.

4 billion to 1 ?

think it's time to go buy a tattslotto ticket...

I guess i mean i wish he would play 4 quarters without the lapses in concentration that occur in his game.

He'll do a smart thing, then often follow it up with a poor decision

Yup..

He plays alot beta when he just lets his instinct run things, but looks like sometimes, when he

overthinks things, he can make the wrong decision, but that will come!!

Yeah can play, not always plays. There's been plenty of players that have looked the goods early on but haven't found consistency and have ended up on the couldabeens list. Good luck to em but they won't have truly made it til they can put in 88 quarters a year (or close enough)

Whats wrong with you people? :blink:

Y_M, all Sylvia has done is better his 'Trade Bait' price; instead of 4th/5th round, now maybe 3rd/4th. If he keeps this up, we might get a 1st/2nd round pick for him.

To stay at MFC, he needs to play well consistently, AND convince the footy dept he is part of their plans. The latter won't be easy given his record.

I think the FD wants him to be agood, so they will persist, and ATM he is slowly rearding their faith...

a few more 4 goal hauls, along with 2-3 25 possie games in the guts towards the end of the year will signal his arrival... i want 20 goals for the rest of the year

I agree. Not taking anything away from his game today, but he's still got a fair way to go.

The magic being spun here is gold!

Like the club in bursting at the seams with players that can actually have an influence on games at the moment.

And some of the scientists on here want to kick out a player who has been seriously injury prone early in his career, who was a high draft pick who is still only 22 for some mid range draft pick now that he is finally starting to get on the ground consistently and deliver on his promise.

Is it just me, or is the absurdity beyond belief?

Telling me I'm missing something here.

Lucky for you and me, Dean Bailey isnt as stupid as these Sylvia-bashers.

If Bailey can make players out of Miller, Garland, CJ, Buckley etc.. it is scary to think how good he will make Colin Sylvia.

    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
