Over 100 years since there were draws in rounds 1 and 2. Will get back to you on consecutive weeks.

Condemned, I totally agree. People whinging about needing a result - a draw is a result!

I went last night, so that's 2 games live for me this year for 2 draws!

I usually hate watching the Saints games, but last nights game was pretty entertaining. I found that the Saints looked to move the ball a little quicker last night, but it actually exposed their lack of leg speed on the G when they play a faster style on that ground.

The Bombers next week at Etihad will be an interesting match. They are basically the Bombers [censored]!

If we can play with the intensity shown by Richmond for 100 mins. we will beat the dawks.

I have to say that I'm starting to associate the sound of the final siren with a look of puzzled bewilderment on the faces of Saints players

And I'm enjoying it

The Saints blew it last night. Without Hayes, therir lack of leg speed and a few lazy midfielders showed them up.

I just wonder what the result had been if Hayes was not carried off and Jack Riewoldt was not concussed.

A draw on the Board....but a psychological win for the Tigers.

But talk back will be flooded with people calling for extra time etc

I for one do not have a prob with the draw, thought it was a great game and think the Saints are in a world of pain this year.

Agree Condemned. The draw should stand as the result.

Amazing, the last 3 games a the MCG have gone.....

Draw, Draw, One point

The last four games at the G have gone draw, draw, 1 point, draw.

The last four games at the G have gone draw, draw, 1 point, draw.

You are missing the Carlton win in the first game by 20 point and the grand final win by collingwood

But there have been three draws in the last 6 games at the G

i know its only early but this season is starting to remind me of 2000 not 4 us i mean but the season was fairly even apart from a really dominate side miles out in front that being the pies this time and not essendon, the rest of the comp is starting to catch upto the saints cats and dogs but still a fair way off the pies

I love having 'The Draw', and the randomness of how it hits the ladder at any time of the year.

Also love the Grand Final replay.

I bet the Saints wish they had a hard in and under ball winner to replace Hayes........ maybe like Ball :)

How true.

Also, these changes will. IMO, help them for the future.

I think they will now have to rid themselves of this terrible flooding, and promote football players, instead of defensive drones.

Surprised how soft and slow Dal Santo & Montagna were last night. Surprised because I'd always considered them hard & fast.

I've had a soft spot for the Saints over the years (my grade 6 teacher was Bob Murray) but they will come right back to the field without Hayes.

I think Dal Santo looks slow, he seems to shuffle not sprint. Agree Montagna does not seem to split the lines like he use too.

    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
