Forgot to change the team - poor management and paid the price.

Yeah, I wondered what happened.

And the Dogs don't know what they are doing. They have one ruck and it's Minson...

Bring back Hudson!!

Robbo 24 - Corey & Vince hold some interest.

Check out my list & throw up an offer.

Riv, im not to sure we can get a deal done. I'm only really keen on Pendlebury, but I don't see you handing him over cheaply. You are short on rucks at the moment. I could throw in Griffin/Hampson to get something done?

Corey and Vince also interest me Robbo. Looking to add a decent mid to my mix. RR.

RR, Roughead interests me, as do Enright and O'Keefe. Straight swap for any of those?

Well done RR. A well deserved top spot all yours.

No Sandi, no Dan.

my mob was hammered in a lacklustre, bruise free performance, struggled, with cotchin, watson and newman on the sidelines and a late withdrawal of franklin my team didnt have the quality to even compete, also buckley not playing wasnt helpful.

RR list has great depth too

Cheers Dappa and MadMelb, nice to be breathing the fresh top-o-the-ladder air. My stars seem to be aligning at the moment. Roughy and Kennedy in rare form up forward and I made some hard calls on trading Waite and Dal Santo out to get greater depth across the park.

Swan out for a couple of weeks will make it tough to stay up there and I'm a bit worried about Eth38 ... looks to be the bolter!

RR - Waite & Dal Santo they look familiar.

Definately a valuable lesson that all that glitters is not always Gold.

2011 has been a steep learning curve in UF.

Demonland 7 - Very impressive victory this weekend.

8 - 1 if you dont mind.

Rolled by 1 Kick, 4 HB, 5 Marks, 1 FF & 2 FA

Its a fine line between pleasure & pain this game.

At 4 - 7 going to be tough from here however I wont surrender, will keep punching on all season.

Now any interest in Robbie Gray?

You have McEvoy...where as I have Derickx :)

Anyway, good match. Having McKenzie back is huuuuuuuuge for me, should start winning tackles and free kicks for just about every game from now on.

Edit: Just checked the player rankings for my team, and I like it:

McKenzie 19

Bartel 24

Boak 46

McGlynn 58

Mumford 60

Garlett 67

Chaplin 80

Hodge 86

Byrnes (predicted 105, fit to play this week)

Savage 117

Gee they're impressive numbers. McKenzie back is a massive, massive in in the form he's in. I think many steered clear because they didn't think he'd get fit and stay fit, even with lots of game time. But 25 touches, and 8+ tackles, that'll have him deeply ensconced in the top 100 in the league the rest of the year. Huge pickup.

I had tried to trade to eth38 for Jordie a number of times. No cigar.

Scully. Just at the minute is more of a chance to blow up. Trengove is ultra consistent, and is coming off 3 weeks rest.

Jeeeeeez... OMR... Any danger of a free against anytime soon?!!!!

My Lads are playing to strict instruction this week.

Do not give away any stupid free's or be delisted.

& the forwards 20 sausage rolls already if you dont mind.

Game still alive with Luke Ball versus Pendles & Max Gawn tomorrow.

Bad luck Dappa you ran into my boys on a weekend when all the planets aligned.

My Sides pumps out a massive 22.5 (137) on the scoreboard

Launced up to 9th. Next stop the top 8 - The Giant is awakening.

Yeah, but I just experienced my loss to West Coast.

Edit: Up for trading. Need some player who are going to rack up the disposals, preferably not midfielders as I'm set with Bartel, Hodge, Boak and McKenzie in there, unless good offers are made. Feel free to check out my list and make some offers.

[censored], I did it again.

Can everyone who reads this veto the trade between me and OMR...again? Clicked accept by accident.

Or JACKATTACK, you're the league manager, can't you cancel it or something?

OMR, I was going to say neither of those players were what I was looking for.

I voted against it based on your request. Have a good match.

As the league administrator I don't think it is my place to involve myself in mistaken trades. It's really up to each club to not accidentally trade players away. And really the world won't end if you lose a player like that. It might seem unfair to you but personally i don't give a stuff about your club despite it being the (equal) oldest in our league. However, you'll be happy to know I can offer compensation for your loss, I found a sock in my backyard that was ripped to pieces shortly before passing through the digestive system of my golden retriever, consider it yours.

But seriously I can't cancel this trade, but I have voted against it, and I think if it goes through before this week I can switch it back. But i'm not exactly sure how this feature works so I can't make any promises.

Re-posting this message I just put up on the UF noticeboard....

Suffered my first serious injury blow this week with big Roughy going down for the season.

Looking to trade up for a decent KPF.

Trav Cloke would be ideal, or a Pavlich or even a Tippett. If you've got a KPF you're willing to look at trading, have a look through my list and make me an offer.

Cheers, RR

    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
