Neither do AA types as in Jamar & Harvey (I assume it's Boomer Harvey ?). It's subjective to opinion.

Yep Boomer.

The guy who came dead last in our comp last year also had the most AAs in his team (7). But yes it is subjective.

Its Stand up Comedy Hour

Deal's off the table then, actually the reason I didn't propose it in the system is because I was scared you might accept it. When trading it is alway more beneficial to trade 2 average players for 1 very good player. If you accepted that trade I would therefore have to drop Leuenberger, or look to trade him off.

So to shift Boyd you're going to need to offer me something that's going to be worth my while. And I dare say that if you put that trade (Jamar & Boomer) to any of the other coaches with top 10 players they'd turn it down.

Van Berlo ?

Go fish.

van Berlo has a higher actual rating than Martin's projected - add to that he can play back and centre.

Furthermore, Martin is depth in your team and would be depth in mine - whereas van Berlo would easily walk up start into your backline.

Chris Dawes? I must say - looking at a player who can only play one position looks pretty hard to move on.

Just before the first game of each round, not sure if it's literally the bounce of the ball or 5-10 minutes before the bounce.

I have Brad Ottens on my list- chosen as a back up ruckman whom I can still utilize as a forward. If I place him as a forward in my team does his ruckwork count as a statistic?. Please advise and thank you.

I'd have Ottens as a rookie next year IF Max Bailey, doesn't come up physicaly this year.

I'd like to strengthen my forward or back line, open to suggestions.

Be creative people.

Thanks for offer to take Lake off my hands HT, but i think its best for my long term health to hang on to him. 'Twas a good offer though. Bob Murphy is one of my absolute favourite players out there. Had to have a good long think about it - and hit the doggies website/bigfooty etc to find up to date injury news... but Yeah NAH!! Lake is mine, unless Adam Goodes is up for trade then i might reconsider

No sweat. I saw the injury list and it looks as though Lake will be back around Round 6, but I've heard whispers it could be longer. Thought it might be close to a worthwhile deal.

Thanks for your advise my friend . I think he can do OK this one. I will not be trading him. Also I swam atVictoria University yesterday with Brian Lake. He hope to be back around 4/6.But will not be pushing himself too far , too early.

Dappa Dan with picck 2 wisely chose Sandilands, he is a hitout machine averaging 36 hitouts a game, the most of any player. When I come to play him my ruck, Leuenberger, only averages 21 per game.

The Sandi post you made earlier sums it up. YOu could pick Selwood (I had my eye on him) who is very close to getting you frees for, along with touches galore... You could pick Goddard who will give you lots of kicks, marks and healthy amount of goals. but when ONE player can sew up a category as reliably as Sandi does, he picks himself.

Now if anybody is interested in : Richard Tambling ©, Danyle Pearce ©, Josh Hill (F) or John Anthony (F)

Happy to listen to offers\

You still have Anthony?

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic.

As a general rule... he is.

1st, by 1 handball.

I was sitting next to him at the Roos/Dees game where each of the finalists had a guy playing... His squirming was more entertaining than the game...

goood trade HT

I think it benefits both parties M_M, I was hesitant because I love Banfield - well not "love" but you know what I mean. I think Jetta offers me more scope. So I accepted. Win-win I think.

I actually like Jetta but I think Banfield will play close to goals... I need some goal kickers. Also, I just like trading.

JCB still around ?

Always here for you- please explain why? Got a decent trade? Or do you want to pick my team ?

I can't beat a sprightly young colt like you.

    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
