From the top:

Frawley - what more can a player do? I said in another thread he's the new Glen Jakovich, and I'll say it again here.

Dunny - Dunn has stunned me with his development. That goal after the siren was a cracker, and he KNEW he'd kick it. I didn't.

Davey - smooth as silk, cut through Richmond like they were warm butter.

Green - all class, vice-like hands, and a great snap.

Jurrah - could and should have had 7

Bail - pace, balance, can deliver.

6. The strange moustached fellow in #14. Not sure who he is or what he's done with Lynden Dunn, but I definitely like this guy better.

5. Frawley

4. Green

3. Jurrah - Bails and co showed why they get paid the large coin and I pay for the privilege of my offerings: I had him as an 'out' this week :wacko:. This could have easily been a huge bag had his kicking not been wayward.

Jones,Jurrah, Garland and Rivers also very good.

GO DEMONS YOU GOOD THINGS. I am excited. Next week we will go in as underdogs against the hawks, looking for revenge from Round 1.

CARN THE DEES! KEEP THE DREAM ALIVE.

I gotta agree with you re Dunn.

I would be described around here as a "Dunn-basher", but FMD he has turned himself and his career around. What is even more remarkable is that he is clearly carrying a foot injury. Anyone who saw him coming to the bench today would see that he can barely put weight on one of his feet, and is hobbling badly. Amazing effort from him to really drag us through some rough patches 2 weeks in a row. I'm going to give all credit to his dirty mo! :)

I'd say that apart from Green, our senior players were relatively quiet today. Junior wasn't at his best, Bruce had good patches but didn't do a lot, and Jamar is clearly not 100% fit, and yet we managed to drag ourselves over the line thanks to the efforts of Scully, Watts, Bail and Jurrah in the last quarter.

Also, I f'ing love James Frawley!!!! :wub:

Bruce had good patches but didn't do a lot

Bruce was involved in that one play of pure poetry in the third quarter with his absolutely cracking kick between the 50 arcs to Sylvia, which resulted in the goal in the square to Wonaeamirri. Can't remember anything else he may or may not have done, but that particular bit was worthy of huge props I reckon. That one play, which started with Joel Macdonald in defence, was the highlight of the game for me.

Very even effort this week, difficult to rate who was more important, here's my try!

6. Dunn - What an improvement for him this year!

5. Frawley - Kepping Jack to 1 goal is a massive win!

4. Davey - Skillful display

3. Bartram - I would not have said this 1 year ago.

2. Bruce - Important wins in defense

1. Watts - Not sure why

6. Frawley - answered the Riewoldt v Frawley question emphatically.

5. Dunn - has well and truly arrived!

4. Jurrah - straighter kicking and he would have been BOG (kicked 4.4, should have had at least 6 or 7)

3. Davey - the cream of the crop

2. Green - my favourite for a much deserved B&F award...

1. Scully - easy to forget he's just 18

Loved Jonesy's courage, Bail's dash and was pleased to see Watts improve in the last. Great day at the G.

    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.
