Seems it’s gone the way of the Joel Smith tests positive thread aka the Demonland Bermuda Triangle.

It was not that long ago people were saying the Dees would fall apart without Hogan. Glad to see they were wrong. I tend not to follow ex players as I lose interest once they leave the club. I mu

Meantime, if you’re going to Gosch’s this morning and you want something warm and nourishing to eat but don’t really wanna take out a second mortgage on your house for the food cart, come and grab a snag in bread from the Demon Army tent. $2.50 apiece, or $4 for a snag in bread and a soft drink. ❤️💙

Maybe one of my teams may make it as West Perth won the minor premiership. First time that has happened since 1993. Wait that was the year they lost the GF! Not sure how 2022 will turn out.

The Purple Army has booked out flights to Melbourne so watch out for them. That good news for us over here as there will be less Shockers per Demon supporters. I had heard it cost around $2,000 for a ticket.

It’ll be a long and sad flight back home for them. 😭

But you never know  🤞🏼

Banana smoothie always a good start to the day!

The breakfast of champions, Layz. 

Speaking of breakfast, anyone who hasn’t yet had brekkie, come to Gosch’s for a snag in bread for the meagre sum of $2.50. Or $4 when you add a can of soft drink. 

Oh and you get to watch our players training, too. 
Hashtag side bonus. 😆

West Perth had won 4 flags since 1993, but the last win was in 2013. Since I had been a supporter for around 50 years I don't believe the 7 flags they won during this time is enough, l want more!

I been a Melbourne supporter since 1999, when the local ALF teams created super WAFL teams by stacking their listed players in host clubs. IMO stabbing West Perth in the back. We did win the 1999 Premiership LOL. But lost the 2002 GF to the Eagles Reserve team (East Perth), we had 1 goal at half time! Anyway back to the 23 years of support of Melbourne, we have only won 1 flag. I want more!

How do we get more flags? I want them ALL!

Wish I could! Pushed the envelope a bit last week being there during work hours, those snags were very popular!

Man I loved that album, used it for a lot of inspiration for my own musical arrangements 😀

I saw them live in 2019 and they were 🤯. Sadly, a couple of weeks later Keith “Keeefe” Flint took his own life. 😢 But yeah, that album is incredible.

    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.
