This win will kick start my season, the Jackattacks list has quality across the board, and the question marks over the whether or not the coach has 'lost' the players have been blown out of the water with a confident display last week, and another on the way.

Expect D.Martin to step up this week against his old club.

Helped by the inability of scarlett to fix his team up right and the failure to actually play 11 players.... :)

You'll get a different perspective this week JA.

PS. 45 - good win. just. may have been different had I known in advance Jacobs was starting. That or a free kick...or had Selwood missed. :P

That was kind of Scarlett, but the Jackattacks will prove themselves this week and the top end of the ladder will start looking over their shoulders.

Daniel Motlops arrogant grin every time he was near the ball cost PA the game against the Gold Coast Suns.

Little Daniel snagged 4 today but we all know he is a 1st class choker & wont be there when it matters against real

opposition.

I wonder what Dappa Dan thinks of your assination of his Ruckman Mr McEvoy.

Dress it up anyway you want you don't get 36 hit outs in the AFL accidently.

Let me know if your interested in trading this week Big Guy?

Congrats on getting over the line this week.

The last 3 weeks in a row I've gone into the final game with a lead and lost. Mackie 4 FA and Corey goaling whilst Sheils missing killed me. God UF can get you angry

I thought I had no chance DL7. Coreys first goal in 60 odd games was just what the doctor ordered. Good game!

...or if the other 10 of my players didn't play?

Bit silly to say if Selwood didn't play - he did and starred - especially considering inhad 3 or my of my best out.

Thanks JCB - You gave me all the motivation I needed

& Matty Scarlett helped with his wild elbow that nearly removed Jordan Lewis's head clean off his shoulders.

That was the Free Kick that won me the game.

Congrats to all winning Coaches over the easter Round

Back in the Top 8 now & planning to hang around.

Now who's up for some Trade Action?

I meant if he missed his goal, not the game itself. It would have dropped the %; essentially handing me that category and a 5-4 lead.

I missed a few players too due to the bye. But I guess we're all in the same boat in that regard.

Voted against too...

You can't allow someone who has lost interest in the game to give players up in easy trades just cos they don't care anymore. Robbo and SnomeD, feel free to rebut... Make your case.

Haha - yeah lost interest at the top of the ladder :)

To be honest I was overseas at the time (a last minute decision) and have only just gotten back to reality as of yesterday - couldn't remember my password for this site and to be honest, while on holidays other than quickly checking my team in UF, DT and SC I had better things to do than sit on forums discussing Ultimate Footy :). I did take the time to watch the scores as the dees came back against Brisbane though :)

In any event you probably all did me a favour - got Sylvia for him in the end :) Now that Hille's back I'm even happier to have gotten rid of Ryder. Am hoping that Hawkins can improve throughout the year (still have nightmares about his first game against Melbourne) as the backup ruckman to Graham who's doing better than I expected.

Actually that was the day before I left :) I did bring the ipad with me so I could check my my team and make sure that I could field a team!

You were overseas before the vetoed trade, or had traded Sylvia for Ryder before going overseas ? I'm confused.

Ok - I traded the day before I left (30th March, 7:41pm), I was in a plane at 8am the next morning (but hadn't checked anything online since the trade) then it got vetoed (31st at 4:28pm - I was actually in an airplane during the discussion and vetoing - so not much I could do in any case :)).

Was back for a few days last week then went camping over Easter so have managed to put a trade through.

Dal Santo for O'Keefe and Darling?

Whoa.

Edit: What the fuuuuuuuck, just checked the live scores this week to see five players not playing this week because of the bye when I clearly remember swapping them out. And pressing the 'Save Changes' button.

This sucks.

Glad you got the desire you needed- payback time for me this week.Getting belted and don't have a ruckman-Jolly out injured,Ottens a bye. That's life- another week goes by.

I wish you had stayed overseas as you are giving me a belting.But you have a good liist there and coaching well. If Jolly had of played- I would have beaten you IMO.However congrats.

I was desperate for a better forward set up and OMR wanted a bluechip mid. I think we're both happy with this result.

At least I've got Darling in my UF, DT and SC sides. Consolation for not having him the Dees!

Summed it up well RR

You have to give a little in this contest to make some gains.

Both parties very satisfied with this exchange.

Good Luck today UF Coaches, some tight contests still to play out this round.

lol - I wish I was still overseas too :)

Yeah - Jolly could be the difference - your goal kickers went nuts this week!

Could come down to the wire - I think you'll win this on kicks - 14 behind - Johnson averages 14 and grant 7 - hopefully they kick 0.6 between them and give away 12 free kicks :)

    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
