Horrific injury to Browns RB Nick Chubb on Tuesday. It was apparently so gruesome that ESPN would show a replay. Knees just aren't meant to bend that way ☹️

Steelers fans chanted Chubb's name as he was carted off the field. Take notes Collingwood, very possible for a big fanbase to act with grace.

Akers traded to Vikings for an unconditional 7th and a swap of 6th round picks. 
 

We were linked with Taylor earlier in the year, I know the Rookie running back is doing well but hasn’t faced a lot of stacked boxes yet and Taylor is a gun. Rams have $75 in dead cap this year and zero next year! 
Id do it, will help Staff stay healthy as they have to respect the run game and not know we will be throwing 75% of the time. 
 

Joe Burrow didn’t strain with his calf and Bengals said they hope he trains before Monday. Could be a huge out.

Interesting game, giants did much better than I expected with their oline banged up and Barkley out.

Their D was great on downs 1 & 2 early but wow did they screw up some 3rd and longs.

Niners are good across most of the positions, I look forward to the Dallas game when the D faces a good oline meaning the secondary will come under more pressure. I think that’s where teams will try and get them, not that it’s a big weakness just not as strong as the Dline.

McCaffrey is the key to this team. If he gets hurt then things change big time. In saying that the niners should win a SB in the next three years.

Cowboys not good enough today. Cardinals were very good to be fair.

Dallas defence had no answers today. Cardinals moved the ball with ease.

Penalties cost us. On big plays too (that old chestnut, McCarthy does not seem to have the cure for this disease)

Running game in good shape. Red zone offense a big problem. Can’t get it done. Couldn’t execute on a 4th and goal and picked off on 3rd and goal (Dak tried to force it).

Doing a lot right so still confident about the season ahead.

I’ve been critical of McCarthy for so long. 
He can’t seem to take that next level as a coach. 
Cowboys run game is good, got good wide outs, good D, good oline and an good QB, but Prescott is another that has never put himself truly in the top echelon of QB’s

Cards were good and elite in the red zone defensively.

We need a new QB. Dak isn't good enough, he isn't top echelon like you say. When the pressure comes on he throws interceptions.

Into the last Qtr and McVay has cost us any chance at this game so far. Absolutely idiotic play calling all game long.

Bengals second worst vs the run, we have been good and elite in the red zone, so what does he do… repeatedly throws the ball. No run plays. The fool wants the ESPN big plays and not the grafting work. It does this all the time. 
0-5 in the red zone on throws. 
McVay drinks his own bath water at times.

    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.
