Ironical that the Toigs finish the season with an 80 point defeat 6.9.45 to Weagles 17.23.125.

I reckon they're a year behind us at least but there's no #1 pick for them this year and no priority pick next year.

And a real big thank you Jordan McMahon. They should name the Draft and Trading Board around here after the man.

I'm just looking forward to draft day watching Richmond stuff up their picks by drafting Andrew Moore at pick 3 instead of Morabito or Butcher only for the fact that they have Andrew's brother Kelvin already on the list! :lol:

Hmmm. Would the mods here be up for that? I reckon it's hysterical, but they likely wouldn't want to be criticised for cheering on the tank.

Tom swift looked fantastic tonight for the eagles.

I was wondering how long it would take for people to mention this.

I was left feeling very empty after last years draft day. Watts was a given, and when it came to picks 17 and 19, I was really only hoping for Swift. People told me to sod off as he had injury concerns, but for mine, he moved the best out of ALL draftees, except maybe Watts. When they called Blease at 17 I was saddened, but I thought we'd get both when Shuey's name was called out. Choosing not to draft Swift with both selections was one of the big stingers in recent memory for mine.

I know it's only the last month he's played well, so this is obviously very early days, but I think this one'll end up hurting us in the future, for whatever that's worth.

No disrespect to Blease and Strauss... I don't mean to talk down about them. My problems with Blease are for another day, but I think Strauss will be ok.

If the Moderators had any sense of humour or irony they should do it. The guy is a legend and I'll never forget his contribution to the MFC.

The "Jordie McMahon Drafting and Trading Board"

It's a must.

I'm with you DD, I was following the draft and celebrated when I heard Shuey's name being called out. He'll be a very good player but just as long as Strauss becomes a regular it won't hurt too much.

You make some worthless posts HT.

I have the tigers and hope they stay down the bottom for the next 5 years.

Digga mate, what is your problem?

The name of the forum has been commented on quite a few times in this very thread. I have followed suit. Hardly worthless.

    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.
