Barty shouldn't get dropped. Will get the job on Milne. Was hardly our worst today.

Scott West on SEN before the game said Gysberts was out because of hamstring tightness.

Don't know how serious the tightness is and whether they want to give him another week or not.

We will never succeed with Baileys current gameplan of efficient disposal starting from the backline while Bruce is still either in the team or being played in that position... He's been a great player but he is one of a few (probably Bruce, Rivers, Miller) who give their best but simply don't have the skill level to execute the current game plan

Please god no PJ.

Say yes to Spencer, say no to PJ.

Out: MacDonald/ Rivers, Miller, Jetta

I can't bring myself to drop anyone just to bring in some help for Jamar, when in reality our back up options are terrible and/or not ready to make an impact at the top level.

If Reiwoldt plays as was stated in todays paper, stick Watts on him so he can learn how a forward plays. If he gets spanked, that would be great. The bugger needs to play down back to learn some desperation.

Great Idea!

Time to give Cheney a run.

You are right. I am not his biggest fan but he deserves a go next week.

I can think of 5 players that should make way for him.

What about Bell he has played well for Casey, surely could not make us any worse!

Outs - Miller & Jetta (both absolutely awful today) and probably Macdonald (although you could choose from about 5)

Ins - Sylvia & McDonald (both automatic inclusions if fit) and one of Spencer/PJ (don't really care which but we can't go in with one ruckman against St Kilda who play 3 or 4)

Rivers and Warnock only survive because St Kilda play a tall forward line

PJ won't be back next game, although he has been in Casey's best for the last few games, because he got a 1 game suspension from the VFL tribunal.

Enlighten me why Jetta should stay?? PPoor today

OUT Jetta, Miller, Watts,

IN Sylvia, McDonald, Gysberts(all if available)

If Riewoldt plays, Warnock stays in, otherwise drop him for Cheney

I like these! Try some one new forward. Maybe a Garland or Rivers!

The problem isn't the forward line, it's the way and number of times we're getting it down there.

Conversion rate today was good ... even very good, considering what was going on further up the ground.

Can you post something without knocking Bailey every single time? It's very tiresome...

But I agree with what you've said about those 3 ('cept Bruce)

Changes will be difficult this week, considering how bad Casey was last week.

    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.
