i've got deledio... considered trading him considering his poor start, but I'm going to stick fat... the tigers have had 2 of the 4 best sides in the comp thus far, and a carlton who played like they were a top 4 side in their match as well...

out of those 3, Judd or Dal Santo... Dal Santo doesn't need much of the footy to score well in supercoach... also considered our own Flash? going to rack up a lot of points across half back this year... been racking up around 120 a week in that position so far... I'm bleeding he's not in my side...

Trade him. He's not coping with the tag and will be the first tagged every week

Eg:

v Ling

v Kirk

v Rawlings

v Baker

v Dunn*

*= joke

Trade him for Bennell & bank the cash for later in the season.

I have a strong feeling Bennell is about to score some high numbers, he seems to be such a smooth mover

& has plenty of time. 6 games under his belt & he will be a star.

Assume you have Daniel Rich / Hayden Skipworth & Shaun Higgins

Smokey - : No. 7 for Swans think his name is Merideth - Looks the goods.

Yes I have all three of the above. I am a passionate Demons supporter and I had Brocky in there to start but he sucked in the first three games so I took him out. I have Judd, Thompson, Rich, Griffen MItchell. That is a pretty full midfield but they just dont seem to score consistently. I have a lot of big stars in my team which on paper through law of averages should be around the 2,200 mark each way. Considering over 22 players each week the standard deviation is around 6-8 it myfs me as to why I struggle to crack. 20000.

I feel in the case of specialist forwards a goal should count fora lot more than 8 points. Take Fevola for example he might only tough it 6 times a game.

The forwards you want in your side @ the moment are

FLASH

His Little brother

Nathan Krakeor

Danial Motlop

All raking up big numbers

Buddy, Pavolich & Riewaldt will all come into there own later in the season.

Fingers crossed a bloke named Watts might be some value in the back half of 09

oh I forgot to mention I have S Johnson as well as Higgins who can push into the midfield when required. The three you mentioned are spasmodic at times but brilliant when they are on. The question is really how long can they stay "on" for. In the case of flash he really has to stay red hot for us the have any drive and run out of defense because he is our link man. Krakour seems to have sublime skills and I feel his points come from the precision of his kicks. Now taking into account that he played you know who last week there must not have a great amount of pressure bought to bear on him. When this changes so to might his points. Daniel Motlop if he continues in the current vein could be the find of the season as far a small forwards go in super coach. However much like his compatriots of aboriginality in the AFL this seems to be a challenge. A dangerous forward he is, a consistent one he has not yet proven to be. Factor into this that he can be volatile and he may miss a few games through suspension. His avergae is 2 to 3 games per year.

What is going on with Buddy is that the supply is not there as yet and teams congest Hawthorns back half starving him of space. I agree that, once the hawks gain their star players back he will improve. I feel Paul Chapman is a better selection that Reiwoldt primarily because he is a goal kicking midfielder who can score points both for possessions gained din the midfield and the goals he kicks in the forward half. The great thing about Chapman is his kicking skills are almost unparalleled in terms of efficiency 80%. Only a few others, including Brian Lake 100% were better than him this week. he gained 35 touches which is unreal. Pavlich is in the same position as Riewoldt in that his coach has determined he can roam further from goals to gain higher possession and kick longer into the forward 50. However based on Freos current form he is confined to dual modalities. I even saw his in defense last week. Even so I have been waiting for him to go over the hundred mark in consecutive weeks. His last two efforts 96 and 105 tell me he may be on the rise.

    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
