the stats looks good. Being at the game today, he was even better. great pressure, surprising pace, he was very good for his (effectively) first game after 2 minutes of footy last year. Definitely deserves a call up next week.

doesn't look much, but we will wait and see.

So great to see Rohan have a good game today. Really great bloke. Hope that last kick doesn't weigh on him too much.

what a game for a guy playing his first full game, i was very impressed. As for the last kick it hit the target, unfortunately there was just enough collingwood pressure to spoil Ricky.

i loved what i saw with this kid

rohan, jordie, tom and jack played so well together i just loved it.

i saw jack get a bit rough and was giving the pies player and good hit and then jones came over to help and i thought about time these young kids had a good crack and played dirty

What his stats don't show was his hardness at the contest. Loved it. Strong lad.

Agree they should have a rating out of ten how tough their nuggets are, i would give RB 9 nuggets today!! & 10 for a group effort.

would be great if he can string a few like yesterday together...Mckenzie, Bail, Grimes, Trenners, Sculls, Gys, Blease, all running through the middle and delivering is starting to sound like a great core! Good on you Bails...

Even more impressed with him now, having seen the replay.

Terrific courage and was really taking it up to his opponent. Quite clever in close too, giving off some very nice handballs to release a teammate.

Only disposal by foot is going to keep him from making it at AFL level IMO, so if he can improve that, he should become a very handy player for us.

Well done Rohan and i would also like to say thank you as well, because I'm in the cheer squad and had you as my first goal kicker and won $20.00 so thanks :)

I was thinking when he kicked that what the odds would have been.. Inspired choice.. name plucked out of the hat or you have flash forwards?

Rohan Bail = Nathan "Brown Dog" Brown Mach2?

This would be a good thing.

Add some polish to Brown dogs lesser points (hitting a target) and you have yourself a solid 200 gamer that can beat opponents without the flashy fanfare of an afl superstar.

Interesting point. He does drop the ball (when kicking) a little awkwardly - on its point?, but his final kick of the game, to Petterd, was none preferred (left side) and precise.

ALSO just watched replay- dead set GOER. Fture here for sure- could be very versatile- back pocket/flank,run with player,wingf or half forward flank-Great debut-- do not count last match last season as a game.Could be a BEAUTY.

Played well when required. Has a bit of toe on him too.

He did the right thing with the kick in the last quarter. Its just a pity muffed the one where he was running to inside 50 and had Green with the best position to take a good pass. Unfortunately the kick did not capitalise on Green's opportunity.

The ball just didn't come back to him on the bounce which stuffed him up. Was so unfortunate because if the ball came straight back to him he could have kicked a goal from 40 or dished off to Green with the odds of getting a goal very good.

But he has good size, good speed, runs hard. Skills might not be magnificent but looks to have skills that can make it at AFL if he excels in something.

Not sure what his best position will be - half back, wing, forward. Can't believe he was playing VFL 2's last year - I think off field family circumstances must have taken an effect. Will certainly keep the selectors honest this year.

Just watched the first 3 quarters again on TV and was thrilled at the intensity he showed to the contest. He attacked the ball in a ferocious manner and it was great to see. He has a good physique and is clearly prepared to hit hard. His defensive efforts were also good. This kid has a chance to succeed if he continues to put in.

    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.
