Ok, coffee break, we're almost at the weekend and yes it's a another poll. Just thought I'd ask Demonlanders this: -

If "The Mighty Demons" were playing in the AFL Grand Final next year (of course hypothetically :lol: ; but nevertheless possible), which team would you want The Dees to play and win the Premiership against?

So think about who you might despise the most, etc....

I have a sneaky suspicion who the most voted team may be, but I won't influence voting by alluding to the team I have in mind. Vote away....

Also, think about who you would like to see lift the Premiership Cup on the victory dias. For the sake of the exercise it must be Dean Bailey and someone.

FootNote: Hey Swamp fox, I've put in *West Sydney & *Gold Coast, just in case you complain about another poll! ;)

**Did you want me to include a Tassie Team as well? Well I did just in case the poll copped flak! :lol:

i'd take anything against anyone, but against collingwood, or another melbourne team, would be fantastic.

more supporters to rag on, especially if it was collingwood.

in hindsight, perhaps i would like to smash essendon, as pay back for 2000.

i assume some of the bit-older-than-me's would like to pay hawthorn back for the 80's as well...

The dream: smash Carlton, with Brock as captain, and Grimes winning the NSM.

The reality: I'd take a one point victory over West Sydney, with Juice as captain, and Jamar winning the NSM.

Beggers can't be choosers!

would love to smash the pies then watch them cry again :)

Normally I would agree, but there is a new enemy.... CARLTANK led by JU$$. Love to see a dodgy free kick to butcher (our tanking priority pick) on the siren 10m out directly in front being 5 points down.

How good would it be! They would cry and carry on for years!

Definitely V the dorks after the siren with kick moved closer to goal from a 50m penalty

And Jimmy to catch the ball - as President - behind the goals within the cheer squad. How ironic would that be.

I went for Hawthorn as well. The old firms Collingwood and Carlton are naturally up there but the Hawks IMO have a bit of a smugness about them as an organisation. Carlton and Collingwood I am happy with never making a GF again. :D

I voted the obvious Collingwood with little thought

I would like to change to Carlton, and make the Margin a lot.

No stress on the heart, just 3 hours of enjoyment watching us belt the living bejesus out of them.

Oooooooh and Judd to only touch the ball twice, with Watts kicking 7.

Versus Collingwood

Bailey / Grimes

Being born in the early 1950,s Collingwood is the only choice i could make

I chose Bailey to still be coach of the MFC in 5- 6 years time and by that time alot of changes will be made in the playing list

Bailey by that time should have the core of players who play together for long periods and with enough skill to carry out his gameplan

Grimes shows enough to me to show he has a bright future in the MFC midfield

He has been given leadership in under age competition which is a significant indication he is a person of quality in regards to people skills , being respected and a high work ethic

Hawthorn. Initially chose collingwood, but after thinking over it, the number of cocky schoolkids bandwagoning and rubbing in their dominance during those years, nothing would be sweeter. Hawks to come out blazing like they did last weekend with silky hard attacking skill and their key forwards to give them an 8 goal buffer by half time, and for them not to drop off, but we lift our intensity and run over them by 6 goals with pure brilliance. Ahh. Optimism.

Much prefer Butcher to take a massive grab and kick a goal from 65m on the boundary to cap off a 55 point turnaround. I just don't understand why you would want to win a premeirship from a dodgy freekick. It should worry you that you think like that.

    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

    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.
