What Trengove stated was absolutely true... he IS starting his AFL career, and he IS starting it with the MFC... how anyone can extrapolate from that, that he is considering moving on, is taking paranoia into previously unchartered territory.

Exactly. Hell, it could be a sign of modesty to suggest that he's not even arrogant enough to assume he'll even be given another contract - with any team.

Is Bryce Gibbs playing for Carlton or Adelaide?

What about Matthew Pavlich, Jonathan Brown, Daniel Kerr, and so on. Most players are professional enough to play for the Club they'te drafted to. Of the rest, enough money will get them to stay. Very few players would just go to the Club that drafted them and say, "you know what, screw you guys, I'm going home," without there being any way to get them to stay.

Just saw the senile old fool sheedy try talk up GWS say what you like about Bailey but thank the lord we didn't get sheedy

Hmmm.....an amazing presence on and off the field? multiple premiership coach?....Yes I could not stand that either.

While I am happy with Bails, he is yet to prove a thing apart from being able to endure the past two seasons and not have a twitch...the proof will come over the next 2 years.

Sheeds deserves way more respect than that and has a created a rivalry, whether concocted or not, with Sydney from nothing. We would love publicity like he brings.

Imagine him talking up the Dees, about the group we have been building...maybe poking fun at the Hawks...Have they missed their chance at multiple flags etc? ( I think not) but it would certainly have many column in the paper talking about us.

what's more important, a little more column space or not having a strange fossil who is well past it developing a bunch of your kids?

did anyone else notice Newman was trying to get something out of Sheedy, to do with a dislike of G.Lyon? It occurred to me that Lyon was on the panel for the job he unsuccessfully applied for. Bails all the way.

Sheeds has been so called passed it for 20 years and he has the flags to prove that he can and will be a force again. Not one to count out.

Why would nt you want him developing our kids considering what he did with a few versions of the Baby Bombers?

That's old news. Lyon and Sheedy have always been prickly with one another.

Sheeds was VERY dirty on the Dees for the perceived 'slight'. ANd as Gaz was on the panel it added fuel to the fire...

I wouldn't have minded sheedy coaching at all. He is still a very wise man, he would have bought in all the assistants he needed, But it just shows how good Bails presentation must have been, who in fact was coached by sheeds anyway!!

I'd say, definately he intended it that way. And Roos is playing along, very poorly, not a good actor is Paul Roos.

Yes, Bails all the way.

Sheeds isn't the fossil, but, newman, sheesh, he's got more preservative in him than 'Tutankhamun'.

He wouldn't need Viagra, but plenty of fillers & botox. http://www.docshop.c...efill-artecoll/

Once we gain some form and have developed a bit more as a side (not necessarily this season), one of the best things we could do is insult a club like collingwood or essendon.

Provoke a bit of hatred in opposition supporters and make us relevant again. Make them hate losing to us and desperate to be there to see their side beat us.

One of the most painful experiences as a dees supporter these days is realizing we hold little relevance to a lot of enemy supporters.

A carefully aimed public barb at Malthouse and the coaching setup with Buckley might do mountains of good.

Or I could be wrong.

Not in my books. I'm sick of other supporters telling me to hang in there coz we have a good list and we will look good in a couple of years. That is just condescending pity. I want them to hate my club, players and supporters so I can just smile and say "must suck to barrack for your mob".

Hated and feared should be the plan that way we know we are on the right track.

    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
