The best I can do is to try to find out whether they were suspended with or without pay.

BTW, does Stu's missus speak to reporters outside the front door of the family mansion?

Stu's Mrs, a very patient woman, will take it to the highest levels WJ.

I'm not sure Mrs BBO gives a rats anymore about him but I am reliably informed that he is applying for a job as an international sign language interpreter.

We can't let this happen-a war could eventuate.

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

BBO must be due back in the next few days?

agree he may be a little fired up when he arrives so Biffen and Moon you both need to be on your best behavour. No screw it, just treat him as normal.

LOL

It'll be mascara and Prince Alberts at 10 paces.

Keep BBOs hands tied, I say. He likes it that way.

Wouldn't it be funny if Stuie's missus was spotted speaking to reporters outside BBOs mansion. Tongues would wag on 'land.

Went to training today and the boys looked good. Training appears a bit more intense and quicker than previously. More physical development was evident too.

I thought the same on Wednesday Redleg however it is hard to compared one season to the next as far as training goes.

Glad you are of the same opinion, confirms my thoughts.

I did note he did not say he went to the MFC training.

Always check the fine print OD

Haven't been down to training yet and probably won't until the new year but given that Dave Misson is still in charge of elite performance, it's to be expected that training is more intense this year. It's what he has consistently been saying about the progression in training after starting from a relatively low base a couple of years ago. This was always going to be the year when his training regime would start bringing about some concrete results.

I got 15s. When Smith was approaching 50. Smith now unbeaten on 103, Johnson 39*

Funny game cricket. Who knows? I thought Johnson playing at home was worth a chance when Warner was leading with 60!

He was at 26s for a minute(just before Haddin got out but he could well overtake Smith if he gets going.

Good luck*

Great knock by Smith. Warner having a good series. Johnson great again, this time with the bat and hopefully Smith and Mitch can put the match beyond the Poms in the first session saturday.

Haddin has reinvented himself.

That he has. Every innings he has played this Ashes series, he's gotten no lower than 50 runs.

A timely century from Smith, he needed to put in a good innings.

Rogers needs some good form with the bat and soon. So too Bailey.

As for Watson, looks like Tarzan............plays like Jane.

Thought Rogers was unlucky with that direct hit from side on, as he dived and missed out by inches on making his ground. He looked in fine form with 11 in 2 overs.

First session today will be very interesting. If we can survive and post a big score, the Poms may be completely demoralised and good bowling would most likely see us regain the Ashes.

    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
