Firstly thanks for the links, after sorting out how to recieve them , i watched all 3 speeches Twice each.

All 3 speeches were inspired. Anyone who does not fully believe in DB's ability should watch his speech VERY CAREFULLY.

He is a fine operator, i have no doubt.

2010 is going to be great, i just hope we can score a couple of early wins.

And supporters roll up to those early games. Show the club and players we have faith in the plan that is being executed.

Inspirational stuff. Everyone clearly 'on the same page', and confident that we are on the right track to deliver.

Salient point.

I hope one is an indication of the other, but to be honest, we've not yet been in a position to find out.

Yes we have. To do what DB has done over the past 2 years takes a lot of Guts and strength of character. You have to give him credit for that,

he could have easily cracked under the conditions he was given.

i admit 2010 will give us our first glimpse of his "real" coaching ability but i am betting he has that covered...if his players stand up

All I'm suggesting is that it's ridiculous to say that people should believe in his coaching ability becuase he gave a good speech.

Fair Comment, But i still believe after listening to that speech that DB knows exactly what he is doing.

For that matter so does Cam Schwabb.

you can be cautious of course, but sometimes you gotta belief the feelings inside ya guts.

2010 Bring it on.

the bit at the end where he said there will be a few moments this year we will be proud to be Melbourne members, I think he truly believes it and so do I. I don't think we will get higher than say 10th at best but I'm sure at one or two stages in the year we will upset a highly rated side and make everyone notice. Please be the Pies.

Our Biggest Problem is going to be in the Ruck.

As for the rest of the ground, the excuses are over. The Team must go out there and match it with the best.

No one believed The New Orleans Saints could win the Super Bowl yesterday-but they did it.

That is the kind of attitude that Bailey and the club must expect from all players.

New Orleans won their first Grail in 43 years of existance yesterday-Nobody picked them.

There is one thing going for the MFC right now...We have some good players in our side....& nobody out there rates them

On the back of a wily old fox as a coach.

He took some good risks and the players didn't die wondering.

Thats what i hope DB does. Kevin Sheedy has done very well out of that philosophy.

I think that's a reason DB wants players to play in multiple positions-keep the opponent 2nd Guessing.

Agreed. Not only does Bails' plan keep the opposition guessing but creates resilience in our players, to be adaptable, flexible and ready for any challenge thrown at them.

Wish I could have been there at this year's AGM to see the speeches but unfortunately I have moved interstate.

Go Dees in 2010!

    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
