I got some corporate tickets through work. Should be good to see Neita and Robbo again.

I'm also looking forward to seeing how large Pickett is these days demon_blink.gif

All I want is to see Neitz kick 1 goal, just 1 goal haha.

Seen him jogging around St Kilda a few times so surely there is still some fitness in the big fella!

Shaun Smith is always worth watching. Remember him playing in the VFL up until a few years ago and was still doing pretty special things. Very grey hair I might add. Do we count Smithy as a Demon?

Had a chat to him the other night, said he agreed to it in the summer when he felt fit and had been running, said the running has now died down and he's not looking forward to it...Told him he was in better shape than Kickett so had nothing to worry about

More a Demon than Pickett.

Agreed!

I am hoping the Neita dominates up forward. I reckon he will go alright. Few guys back there for the All Stars who have been out of the game for a while.

I saw Shaun Smith in a pub 2 weeks ago in the wee small hours while watching the World Cup bending his elbow, talking to a lovely lady, so that'd be his training regime sorted then.

So after all these years, Robbos been re-relegated to the Rookie list!

If Robbo isn't set up for a few grabs I'll be [censored]. He's still in good shape and is playing.

Could have been playing this year. ;)

And imo should have

Robbo should have kicked 2 in first 30 secs. Was unselfish and handballed to Modra in the goal square. Perhaps a tiger can change his stripes. Geez I would love some forward power...AND GUESS what...Neita got involved...geez i wish we kept either one of these blokes just to mentor these younger blokes...and then ! I had another idea...sack Josh Mahoney and get either...

Ps Robbo involved in another ..could have 3. Un selfish again. who wouldve thought..hahha

Can't believe we pushed a star like this into retirement when he still had more to offer the team. He's looked dangerous, and dare I say it, hungry. We should probably even look into re-drafting Byron Pickett.

yeh...he can help fatten up Wona while he guts through his injuries...what a beast!

But seriously, Neita would make a great mentor.

It was a little tongue and cheek in relaton to Robbo. I thought about how long it would take for the knives would come out. Thanks for accepting the invitation. ;)

Of course...he took the greatest mark ever (arguably) as a demon!

There's nothing stopping Neeta nor Robbo from involving themselves in our resurgence. Hope they do :)

3 biggest blowouts post football career.

1st = Long

2nd = Kickett

3rd = Pickett

(probably forgetting somebody)

Long in front only because he was so slight during his career where the other 2 were bigger frames to start with.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
