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

So, who are we going to pick up for our midfield and how? And in the minds of the banana brethren, who are we willing to trade out?

Who do you want to complete our lines of coaches including a 2IC?

How much ground can we make (if any) on the competition?

And when was the last time you had anything banana?

Useless unknown alleged fact: Stuie Dew consumed a banana at half time in the 2008 GF. Will he need another to be released from the clutches of Colless/Longmire...stay tuned.

Ok...I'll play

A very left field hypothetical. A dodgy rumour, but i'll work with it suggest Rockliff might be avail for the right deal. ( we're talking using #2 in some manner ) Add Cross and make a play for Chapman.

Not my fancy really but Roos has a history....add Shaw into the half back line

Now right up a team sheet. A bit different huh ? :)

this would give us 2-3 years of competitive midfield whilst the youngens develop. We'd seriously straighten up. we'd almost look like a real football team....truly :)

Tommy Rockliff? Makes you wonder why this site pushed for Jurrah a hell of a lot more than Rockliff in that PSD, given what has transpired. Yeah I know, hindsight is a wonderful thing....

Nervous using up pick 2, it would want to be a good return.

it might not...it might need other 'negotiation' of other picks. But hes a fair dinkum mid.

Suddenly the gutz looks like Jones, Viney, Cross, Chapman, Rockliff, Toumpas, Trengove, Jordie.......

just an "what if "

Just heard from Mrs. Redleg. She and Mr. Redleg have successfully traversed the globe and landed in Nice where they start a cruise tomorrow. She reports that Redleg has scoured the local markets and will proudly carry a crate of bananas onto the ship. She also reveals that his shipboard reading is the Paul Roos biography which he has read 3 times since our new coach was appointed.

Thought you might want to know.

Would it be Wrong?

A man once told me that they wanted to see their team beat my team in a Grand Final by 1 point!

This incident happened in the mid to late 90's while we both were working for same Local Government in a North West Mining Town.

A Gentleman who made this outrageous statement later went on to be a radio personality in Perth.

Would it be wrong to seek Revenge over these comments?

LOL

I am celebrating a Grand Final win so I been changing my Avatar.

I always seem to pick the under dog teams so everyone is very special.

If only we had someone in charge of the MFC who know what they were doing before the start of the 2013 season, maybe I could be celebrating a MFC grand final win tomorrow.

WJ everyone loves Frogs so no need to hide LOL

So Prince William wore West Perth gear at the wedding?

I actually thought at the time that it would make a good alternative strip for the Dees.

LOL you know why I liked this photo then.

I would love the MFC to have this design in its jumpers.

Told you all to get with it two weeks ago.

Today I am a Hawk

We're a happy team at Hawthorn
We're the Mighty Fighting Hawks.
We love our Club, and we play to win,
Riding the bumps with a grin (at Hawthorn).
Come what may, you'll find us striving
Team work is the thing that talks,
One for all and all for one
Is the way we play at Hawthorn.
We are the Mighty Fighting Hawks.

Great Day

YES

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
