The Great Wall of Melbourne

Featured Replies

 

Nice little article.

Oddly enough, whenever I see things on the great wall, I think of James Wall from Casey. A very nice player. He's another one who could be considered for rookyness at the end of the year.

Back to the article however, that's a staggering improvement from last year to this one. 22 less points conceded per game is a phenomenal leap. Imagine if we were to do the same again next year. :P

It's nice to finally get some recognition for our defence, but he still couldn't help the snipe at our supporter base in the final paragraph (or maybe I'm reading into that too much?).

 

Whilst I know there is an avalanche of opinion on why the Demons won't make the finals in another thread. This little article gives some weight as to why the demons could make the eight.

Of course, this will depend upon the consistent nature of the Demons performances this season. Or will that be 'inconsistent?'

Anyway, depending upon the rate of improvement within our forward structure as the side builds 'synergy' and 'confidence' and 'momentum', our questions will sooner or later be answered,... eventually. :)

Does anyone see how I sat on the fence ? B)

I love it. :lol:

Northern NSW be buggered - Noosa of course!

this is a good sign, DB has a good defence, this is something that ND was never able to form, even when we where a top four side, our defence had no stars in it, and when every we did not kick goals the opposition would kick lots, now by the look of it when we don't kick goals this year we have been able to hold sides to low score most of the time. there are more good defenders in this one side, then ND had in all his time at the Dee's, this is where he failed to take as to the top, and that is he never had a good defence.

Even blind freddy can tell you the dees have the best young back line in the AFL. The dees back line looks the goods, and it will only be a matter of time before the midfield is polished a little further, and the front 6 start causing problems.

One of the commentators from the Port Adelaide game was raving about how good our backline is. (Oviously before the last quarter) Then said the best thing about it was they could all play together for ten years,mentioning Warnock. Great effort for Warnock to play until his 36.

I think you'll find it was Tony Shaw. He loves us for whatever reason. Has been very complimentary of us all season.

I think you'll find a lot of commentators are starting to get on the Demon Express, as they realise we play an exciting brand of football which will see us enjoy great success over the next decade. With a bit of luck, we'll be better than the Geelong of the past 4 years.


frawley is looking massive in that picture....big [censored] :)

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
