Excellent response RR.

I guess you need some some variety and surprise in the Bluey. Having said that if our 4 most talented players- Sylvia, Davey, Green and Jurrah all play 20 plus games, then we'll likely win 11 + games.

That means another 5 games from Col and 12 games from Jurrah will give 3 more wins then I will buy that!

However it might require something more.

this years favorite for b&f is davey. hands down.

you have to base it on a player who could walk into any team in the league. Jamar and Frawley could do this but davey has been a consistent performer for so long now. rarely plays a bad game. Plus when melb has been getting flogged he has always put in a strong performance.

davey is vice captain. this is proof he is more than just a good player!

slyvia, grimes, etc...all have massive potential. and could win the b&f...but davey deserves to be favorite.

IMO, it'd be difficult to argue that 5 more games from Col and 12 more from LJ wouldn't have produced 3 more wins for the team overall.

1. Sylvia if he stays fit and plays all h&a games will be almost impossible to beat I think

2. Green, can't see him going backwards and will go back to back if Sylvia has any setbacks

3. Garland is the real smokey IMO, was sensational last season. A full pre season this year and like Sylvia if he can play out the season without injury could make the aa list.

Apologies to: James frawley, Tom scully, mark jamar, jack grimmes and jack trengove.

1. Sylvia - easily if he plays all 22 games.

2. Green - so consistent.

3. Scully - will be a prolific possession gatherer.

Apology - Davey (could pip either of Scully or Green).

Unlucky - Frawley (recovery period so will miss games and needs time to work back into things).

Disagree.

It seems like when Davey gets tagged and only racks up 5-10 touches, we get flogged. It shows his value to the team, but we need him to shrug the tag and be consistent.

He'll win the Bluey the year he does that.

Grimes - Will show again he is our most consistent player

Sylvia - Will get most of the ball in the middle

Green - Never far away from the action, inspirational leader

    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
