In - Maric, Sylvia

Out - Briuce, Bennell

B - Rivers Warnock Bartram

HB - Garland Frawley Green

C - Davey McLean Buckley

HF - Morton Miller Maric

F - Petterd Sylvia Johnson

R - Spencer Moloney Jones

IC - McDonald Bate Cheney Jetta

Bennell had a taste, and I think you will now see him go back to Casey to develop.

Bruce was just shocking again and is long overdue for a run in the seconds, nothing more needs to be said.

Sylvia and Maric in. Two great inclusions to spark us up forward and add some much needed polish.

obviously no one will agree with bruce, but i would love to see maric and wonna in...how we fit both in though might be tricky??

it could also be good to give bennell a go at casey so he can gain some confidence, but then again, another game at AFL level shouldnt hurt. he didnt look too lost out there today or anything...

intrested to know about wheatley, whelan, bell, sylvia and grimes (and their likelihood of playing)

Wonna wont be ready, wish he was though.

Just wondering why you think people don't agree on dropping Bruce? You seen him play lately?

In - Sylvia

Out - Bartram

Backs: J.Frawley, M.Warnock, C.Garland

Half backs: J.Bennell, J.Rivers, K.Cheney

Centres: B.Moloney, B.McLean, C.Morton

Followers: P.Johnson, N.Jones, J.McDonald

Interchange: C.Bruce, S.Buckley, N.Jetta, J.Spencer

I'm not a Bartram fan. I know he did an ok job on Harvey but he butchers the ball too much. Turnovers killed us last year and that trend looks set to continue unless we get our better ball users (including Sylvia) back into the side. An improved side should not have space for an honest trier like Bartram who will never be good enough IMO.

Sylvia didn't do anywhere near enough to earn a spot back yet. & i'm a supporter of his..

Bring him back now & we'll just set him back. He needs Now to be made to fight his way back through hard team work, don't rush it.

Sylvia needs to play. He's the only player in our team with the abillity to kick multiple goals

In - Maric, Sylvia

Out - Jetta, Bennell

These players should play 10 games this season, but really should be playing at Casey to develop any deficiencies in their game and play 100% game time.

Especially Bennel. He looks promising, but clearly hasn't got a perfect game. He won't improve those deficiencies playing 40 mins in the seniors getting 10 possies. He needs 100% game time at Casey.

Considering how poor our forward line looks, Sylvia and Maric are two important additions that makes us much more dangerous

Worst on ground easily for me, then Miller.

Frawley was very good.

Raffle worst on ground between Bate, Bruce, Miller and Johnson.

OUT: Frawley

Frawley? I thought he was very impressive. Probably his career-best game to date.

For mine:

IN: Martin, Sylvia

OUT: Bennell, Bartram/Buckley

Would love to see Maric come in, but he sat out all of the last qtr for the Scorps and probably isn't ready for 4 qtrs at AFL level yet. I feel they'll give him another run there before coming back to the big time.

I'd probably drop Miller after his performance today, but doubt he will get the chop. Same goes for Bate and Davey. Unfortunately we don't have the depth or quality to cover these players on our list. But i think one of Bartram, Buckley or possibly even Morton may be unlucky next week.

    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
