Don't worry Prymke. We'll have the last laugh when Mick walks out of the coaches box wearing a Melbourne Guernsey, 5 minutes into the last quarter of the Grand Final, with the FILTH down by 40 points!

Lol! I like the way you think Disciple.

Wouldn't that be special!

Eddie is only worried Mick will come to us, and that's why he's badmouthing us.

Little does he realise that presenting us in that light may make us seem the perfect challenge to entice Malthouse to come across.

A club primed with all the building blocks for success, but struggling to emerge from the wilderness because it lacks the required leadership and expertise.

If it's all about leaving a legacy, I can't think of a prospect more appealing to his ego.

Butt out Eddie! You are really annoying me!!

Eddie what are you actually trying to say?? If the filth got smashed by 31 goals, would you do nothing??

Thanks for the pep talk for saturday...It is Carlton.

Agree that this is where we stand. The question then is, an experienced coach or a newbie? If, as we seem to agree, we are lacking leadership/direction, does that necessitate, or at least favour, getting someone like Eade/Malthouse/Clarkson/Craig/Laidley in, or would a new coach still be able to inject this via the leadership group and/or his assistants?

Personally I don't think we have to get someone with experience. I get the feeling someone like Scott Burns could get this group going.

Eddie is trying to fire us up to smash Carlton,

I hope we do.

Agree re: Eddie.

Also agree re: your hope.

We stand a 0% chance, however.

guys I reckon he is right we are playing bruise free football.

I have been complaining for some time that we recruit mainly skinny nice boys.

No Darlings for us, what a ruffian! not at the MFC.

Well guess what nice guys don't win premierships.

It is time for a few hard arse pricks in this team.

We have a habit of shooting the messenger on Demonland.

I think Eddy is correct and we should take note of his comments,

Carlton said the same thing a few weeks back.

Are we the only ones in the band in step.

Not sure if that stereotype suits Mr Mckenzie

Eddie is going to be bad mouthing our club until we have contracted our next coach (unless it is MM in which case he will be badmouthing us for much longer...)

He's clearly trying to have an influence on Mick, and is sounding like in insecure little boy in the process. He's a bloody hypocrite. Every time his name pops up in the media he sounds like a fool, from the Andrew Krakouer incident, to now saying he will sue any club with everything Collingwood's got if they come after Mick. If you want him secured, contract him as a coach, simple as that. idiot

I said "mainly" With the exception of frawley and trengrove I saw a lot of bruise free football On saturday.

As well as numerous games during the year,

Hawthorn, Collingwood, west coast, Carlton.

The list goes on.

We play bruise free football quite often.

Either that or we have a team that has a serious shortage of talent.

Skinny boys can do weights

Does that mean that Malthouse could turn Morton into a hard big tough guy??

I would like to see that!!

    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
