1. Gawn - something happened every time he went near it.

* Appologise to Howe and Nicholson who both had great games, Moloney could have easily got in there also.

Lost of people hard done by not to get in. I also think my top three could have been in any order today. They were all brilliant. How good is it that we can have Green get 5 goals and 19 disposals and he isn't in the top 3 on the ground?

Just got home, haven't looked at the stats or anything yet and my memory is a bit sketchy after a few frothies. I'll probably watch the replay during the week and want to change my votes, but for now it's...

6. Martin - the most complete game i've seen from him. Probably beaten in the tapouts, but his work around the ground and up forward was just superb.

Apologies: Scully, Trengove, Nicho, MacDonald, Petterd and about 10 other blokes too... Lots of impressive performances today.

6 - McKenzie - Becoming one of the most important players in the team. Doesn't get the media coverage of other young players, but kept Pavlich out of the play on ball, got the hard ball, and went all day. Melbourne’s Sam Mitchell, and hard as a cats head.

5 - Martin - Dominant big man on the day. Did it in the middle and down forward. Genuine first ruckman. Must be on GWS radar.

4 - Watts - Complete game. Kicked goals, took marks, hit teammates on the chest, ran hard all day. Looks physically strong. Could have changed the top three in any order.

3 - Green - Best forward on the ground. Kicked goals when it mattered.

2 - MacDonald - Was solid in defence and provided good rebound. Not flashy, but .

1 - Gawn - Very good second ruck. Worked hard around the ground. Loved his attack on the ball at ground level. . Loved his attack on the ball for a big man and super fast.

Apologies to Sylvia, Howe, Nicolson, Frawley, thought they were good, but did a lot when the game was over.

Didn't consider Scully, got a lot of the ball, but it seemed that only about 20% of his disposals were good ones. To many up and under kicks, and handballs at players knees/hips/wrong side. So many times he had quick hands, but the receiving player had to break stride because the ball wasn't delivered to the right spot.

    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
