Will be very interesting to her the shite that gets dribbled. :P

Probably unfair considering these blokes will have been sent out to fly the flag for the club.

Still I partially agree and in that I really don't want to hear too much more from the players or coach at the moment.

Watts looks more comfortable infront of the camera than Green.

And he's not afraid to show a sense of humour!

Watts spoke well, Green towed the company line (even when being heavily pushed into cracking a joke about Gary coaching the club). Basically said everything we've already heard, just live.

Watts is too young for me to say this, but I'd hit that :unsure: *shameful*

Also that segment was hardly worth me watching a whole 15 minutes of The Footy Show. Worst.Show.Ever.

Brad is not comfortable in front of a camera, he wants to be. But it is just not in him i do not think.

He wants it too much.

Desperately trying to be relaxed rarely works.

And he was cringeworthy on the 5th Quarter last weekend.

My favourite post so far.

You're being very harsh on him I think.

He's only just become captain, give him a chance.

He has been at the club since 2000, and was not even in the leadership group 2 years ago...i am concerned that Greeny is not a leader, and should just play footy.

Being Captain is a huge job, you must be mentally tough as do it. It's not a slur, i am just concerned.

Well he was voted by his peers to be the best possible replacement for Junior.

The FD wouldn't have given him the job if they doubted his ability.

Cometh the man.....Leaders are not made, it is in the DNA...so let's see what Greeny is made of.

I miss his courage on the field this year, it is like he has become a different person, we need him to fire as a player, worry about the captaincy later.

The important thing was they were out there fronting the media, pushing our barrow to get more members.

Does it really matter if they were asked entirely predictable answers and gave corresponding answers? Some people complain we dont get enough airtime on the various footy shows around, and yet when we do people complain they dont tell us anything we dont already know!

Its probably the first time Watts has been on and fronted up to a TV programme since the hulllabaloo after he was drafted died down, so its good to see the club is not hiding him away.

No problem with Jack Watt's he was comfortable, but i can feel Brad's pain when that red light goes on...Would have taken balls to do it though, so i do acknowledge that.

Agree with this DD. Damned if you do, damned if you don't....

    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
