Saints (ES)

Carlton (MCG)

Essendon (MCG)

Collingwood (MCG)

If we can pull off two unlikely wins out of the next four games our season will be well and truly on track. However if we lose all four our season will be done and dusted. Agree? Disagree?

It all starts this weekend against the Saints. Can we break our Etihad hoodoo? Given we are not very good at breaking hoodoo's i think its mission impossible

To be honest I dont think we can win any of them.

Next 4 weeks ?? alas the season is already defined.. and its not good. Who does anyone seriously expect to beat from here on now ? Maybe the Lions and GC....... maybe Port... but certainly not any of StKilda, Hawthorn, Collingwood, Essendon, Doggies ( maybe a maybe ) . I wouldnt be too wishful against even Freo on what Ive seen this year... Richmond are playing a much better and consistent game...so dont hold breath there.

Itll be 5-6 weeks beffore anything approaching a best 22 , match fit team takes to the paddock. By which time were languishing on maybe 4-5 wins ( if lucky ) Its really all over red rover...again.. Brilliant isnt it !!

With our lack of captain, leadership & injuries...i cannot see any wins in the next 5-6 weeks.

Not Happy Jan....

This month would have been tough enough with a full list, but since we're decimated by injuries I think it's pretty reasonable to expect 0-4 over the next month.

It saddens me to say it but Green looks cooked, while I would have Jamar, Scully, Garland (?), Trengove, McKenzie, Rivers and Bail in my 22. I think it's pretty uncontroversial that the first five are in our best side, and at least three would IMO be in our top 10.

Blah blah blah.... every week we say something like this... the next 4 weeks will do this or that... sick of it!

Dean Bailey said the game against North would define us and how did that turn out?!

Something needs to change, NOW! (Not saying fire the coach, just to clarify) We've ben delaying and making excuses for too long time to stop acting like the Vixens and start playing like Demons, FOR A CHANGE.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    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.
