Where on earth is Jack Trengove? Would've expected him to be playing in Friday's dress reheasal - will be a key this year...The article on the MFC website doesn't say anything about his whereabouts either...not injured, an inclusion, omission or resting.

Hawthorn also have a strong squad in, only really missing Hodge. This will be a good test of where we are at. Unfortunately, I reckon they will beat us by about 7-10 goals.

I'd guess he's not playing because he's already 100% ready to go, and too many other players need the run to get up to scratch.

Surely if he is 100% ready to go thats all the more reason for him to playing??

puntroadend had a live telecast put up for the tiges supporters for a nab challenge match a couple of weeks ago, would be great if we could get that for this game?

I'm all for that...didn't get along to the Brissy game and would've loved to have had the chance to watch. Kudos that Matt Burgan and crew provide live chat updates though.

This is the sort of thing I want to see happen when we develop our own social venues around town. Live feeds shown on a big screen, when not telecast,,,as well as other shows of interest, like big boxing matches could be shown, or even members nights with a big screen say showing past Iconic sports videos, past Demon G/F's, & Icons like "The Fight", between 'smokin joe' & Mohammed Ali.

Or Sugar Ray Leonard, Hagler, Old test cricket footage on Lillee & Thomo & Marsh.

I think we could do a lot more as a club, socially.

James Strauss is named in the side, yet is in doubt with a hamstring complaint.

In fact it was mentioned in an article on the club website:

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/108978/default.aspx

Trengove could easily be a late inclusion.

I'm not concerned either way.

Unless it's a career threatening or long-term injury, it doesn't worry me.

This is a development year.

A few games missed here and there are largely inconsequential, as are wins.

good to see Gysberts and Tapscott in again. both seem to be on the same conservative program but good to see they can hit the ground running for round 1 whether it be at Casey or the Dees.

No sign of Blease, yet hear he played a praccie match last week for Casey ? no Lucas Cook either ?

If he's 100% ready to go then what do you gain by playing him (at the expense of someone who's not ready to go and needs the run)?

He would be fit and ready to go. The heirarchy must have a look at some of the others who haven't had the priviledge such as Gysberts, Tapscott, Blease, etc before the real stuff starts. WIth McKenzie out injured they must sift through for the replacement. Best way to do this is game time. They know what they'll get with Trengove.

Trengove is fine.

FACT: He didnt play last week because he pulled up a little sore from the Essendon game.

My guess is the club wants him cherry ripe for Rd 1 and the season.

Similar to Scully, he probably could of played against Essendon

    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.

    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
