I think all our favourite non-MFC players is now playing VFL reserves.

Looks like the last great thing he did in his career was hand the demons Jack Trengove!

The Richmond fellas behind me were laying traditional Tiger crap on all of their players last Sunday, but I was amazed at how often they talked about Jordan McMahon. For a guy who wasn't even playing that day, I thought they were unusually obsessed with him ("he's earning 300k at Coburg and has never done anything good. Get him up to the seniors so he can get smashed every week and earn his money.") I nearly turned around and said to them that the only good thing he's ever done was to give us Jack Trengove.

Actually Jordan got us Tom Scully rather that Jack Trengrove.

If the Melb v Rich game result was reversed ie Richmond won by a point. Richmond would have ended on 4 wins and Melbourne on 5 wins. Melbourne would have received pick 2 (JT)and Richmond would have received Pick 1(TS) plus a PP at the end of the first round. This must really hurt tiger fans when you consider Tom Scully was a Richmond supporter.

So heres to you Jordan! Your heart beats true.........

If we did not get the PP last year we would have had only pick 1. With pick 1 we would have taken Scully...thus we would not have had Trengove.

Jordan McMahon was another disasterous list decision by Wallet and Miller. Their scars will sit with Richmond for many years.

I am not surprised Hardwick would not warm to McMahon. But on Sunday, he could not have done worse than some of the crud they had out there.

If we had have won that game against Richmond we would have simply lost to Freo in the next few rounds. Draft picks 1 & 2 delivered.

So while Jordan was handy for us he wouldn't have dee-railed our plans :)

I enjoyed being amongst the crowd last week so much. Even the old MCC members were getting stuck into the Tigers-with very little reply! :)

I dont think so. Richmond was a game we did not want to win.

We did everything not to win that game despite the opposition. It would have been a potential disaster for us

Freo were 5 times worse than Rich and we would have had to manufacture something even more extreme than in the Tigers game.

I feel sick thinking about what would have been required to engineer a loss to Fremantle.

Mate it looks like your favourite non-mfc player is running(slowly) around for the blues going by your profile. Might need an update :)

Incorrect.

If we had defeated Richmond (thus losing the PP), Richmond would have got the wooden spoon and received pick one, and us pick 2.

Therefore Trengove to us in all probability.

    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.
