- Moloney to get up for this weekend for sure. Was "50/50" two weeks in a row!! Shouldn't spend 3 weeks on the sidelines with a corked thigh...

- Great to see Grimes only 1-2 weeks away! Could play the final 2 games of the year which will both be VERY important games if we beat Richmond.

- Wrap Gys up for the year and get him a full pre-season.

Can you imagine if McMahon did play? He'd get a standing ovation by the MFC supporters every time he went to the bench.

More than just when he went to the bench, every time he kicked the ball we should applaud him as i'm sure we would get flashbacks of last season and that beautiful goal on the siren to give us picks no.1 and no.2. Stynes should present him with an honourary Melbourne jumper to acknowledge his contribution to our club.

And for those who wish to recall that memorable day.... here's a link to the video:

That mark was taken a good 3 seconds after the siren too.

God bless Jordan McMahon :wub:

I would love to see the Punt Rd end renamed the "Jordan McMahon end" for Sunday.

A banner the width of the goals (behind the goals) would do it.

It would be even funnier if Richmond were to be the more successful club of the two by the end of

the decade.

And everyone would be laughing at the smug Melbourne supporters hanging [censored] on a player who won

a game for his team off his own boot after the siren.

I hear you stmj.

Good! (cause initially I was sensing sarcasm!)

I am more than joyous about or abundance of young draftees, but I do think it's pretty ridiculous hanging it all on Jordan.

Footy is about winning games, and those games are pretty rare and special. Quite sad really when you think about it.

Interested in what the list looks like this week!

Last week a few blew out, it will tell us if we will see Grimes again this year.

Only 2 more Casey games left so if he is not back to play with Casey on 22/8

we will not see him again this year which will be disappointing!

I spoke to him on Satuday morning at training, said he was nearly ready to go (a weeks training), hoping to maybe get a game at Casey this coming weekend

He was on the TAC Show on Sunday and Hutchy mentioned that he was out for one more week so hopefully, he'll be down as "test" on tonight's injury list.

Has anyone noticed we have the most injury prone rookies ever.

Newton, Meesan, Hughes, Healy and Spenser have all missed practically the entire season with injury.

If i were in charge, i'd delist the entire rookie list, except Spenser who'd i'd try to keep on the rookie list (might have to re-rookie him?)

    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.

    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
