Bombers get up by 4pts!

Obviously James Hird's big write up in the HUN didn't do any favours for the arrogant mob at Carlton.

Seems they're starting to believe their own press.

The "Big 4" pfffttt... :lol: !!!!

Carlton are long way off being the certainties they would have u believe if they keep serving that crap up.

Great result.

Was actively barracking for Essendon for the first time in my life, and while I feel very dirty and disgusted now, my hatred for all things Carlton just took over.

CJ's stuff up in the goal square was the cherry on top of Carlton's misery cake.

It's ok - just go and wash your mouth out with soap (I barracked for Collingwood in a match once, and had to do it every day for a week before I felt clean again).

Cop that CJ you unloyal bastard. Great to see Carltank suffer a heart breaking loss. Carltons theme for season 2009 "They know we`re coming", the theme for the match last night "We know we`re tanking". COP THAT YOU WANKERS.

CARN THE DEES!

Too bad we only play them in Round 21 and it's at the Dome

Yeah, wouldn`t it be great in Round 21 if Chris Johnson plays on Micheal Newton, and Newton kicks 9 on him and Ko`s him. lol

Go Dees

while i dont think much of CJ, and I particularly don't like carlton, and I agree with all the pro-essendon sentiments in this thread (and was very happy that they got up), I must say that describing CJ as 'unloyal' is a tad strange. Considering we delisted him.

He may be an averge player, he may be soft, e may be playing for a bunch of cheaters, but unloyal? Im not sure if we ever tested his loyalty.

We didn`t want to delist him. He wanted to be delisted so he can go to Carlton. So he was being unloyal to us. His Father played for Melbourne. A great player, and he wants to leave. That is a sign of weak character.

We only delisted him because he refused our offer of a contract and sold himself off to Carlton.

However, owed the club nothing and we owe him nothing so there's no need to hold back any criticism of him.

I agree. Johnson never was going to stay at the club, and he deserves a lot of criticisim

I loved Robert Walls comment when asked about the fab four. He was asked do you rate the Carlton fab four up there with the Brisbane midfield of old, or the Geelong midfield. And without hesitation he said no! He went on to explain that this Carlton midfield have done nothing. Nick Stevens has never been a great player in big games that count, so until they actually achieve something, they're not fabulous.

Riicky, did you hear Walls holding back the tears as he said this?

Most biased commentator around. Utterly ridiculous. The entire pre match was based on Carlton, and he hardly mentioned Essendon until about the Third quarter.

Actually he mentioned Essendon a fair bit . . .

Mind you it was all just bagging out Knights:

"When will Fletcher move onto Fevola? He's the veteran defender."

"I really think Essendon could use Ryder in defense now. I'd like to see him go back."

"Lloyd is a full forward so why wouldn't you play him there?"

After last season DB asked him on three occasions if he wanted to play for the Demons and each time he had to defer back to his father!!After the third time DB realised that CJ was the type of player he didnt want at MFC - no passion for the club. (He should have had a talk to Greenie!!)Melbourne tried to talk to him about a contract but he wouldn't talk to them. Maybe his father had a higher regard for his son's ability than DB did. Maybe AJ doesn't have the passion for his former club that other players have. A bit sad but what else would you expect from AJ. So CJ just did not want to be at the club particularly after Carlton told him that MFC had no future etc etc typical Carlton!! CJ is playing for the money just exactly like Judd except CJ hasn't got a job spruiking recycling!

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
