Anyone see Garry Lyon on Foxfooty geeing up the team for the 2nd half?

Even though he was dressed innocuously in a Demon top, he looked focussed and angry like he did in the good ol' days...

Does anyone think he'll get a sniff and relent? Personally, I'd love to see a Lyon/Viney combination - two of the toughest, uncompromising players ever to wear a Dees jumper.

If this happens and they woo Junior back....sorry, just a fantasy.

Was thinking the same thing when they said it on radio. Would love it to happen. Still very much think we have to keep Viney in a coaching role at the club.

He is one year into a 5 year contract as a development coach.

He'll be around.

But I think he realises he isn't the person to be in charge.

Lucky if there was 11K.

I was embarrassed when we scored compared to when the Tiges scored - the difference in crowd noise was phenomenal. I'd say of the 36k who rocked up, literally one third were Melbourne supporters. Pathetic. Don't know how the Tigers supporters got the title as the biggest bandwagoners in the comp.

Hahaha Garry looked like he was ready to deck Hutchy after calling him on referring to Melbourne's head coach selection process as being "variable", purely because it hadn't been made public and Hutchy knew nothing of it.

Also, Lyon said there was a board meeting today, and some details will be made public tomorrow.

I think probably an announcement about sponsorship too, based on what Schwab said on Sunday at a prematch event.

($1.9mil for the back of the jumper - no front sponsor signed as yet).

Surely they wouldn't reveal a new sponsor while there is 2 more games in the season with the current ones still paying for the exposure.

Yeah, I thought the same, but I'm pretty sure Schwab said on Sunday we'd be hearing something about it in the news in the next week.

Spot on. I was disgusted with the lack of people there. People may whinge about the time-slot, seriously harden up. Couldn't pick a better game to go too, Beautiful day, at the G against a team were we really should have won.

Whenever Richmond kicked a goal in the clutch the noise was deafening, when we did it was polite clapping and a couple of shouts.

Viney and Lyon. Two guys how have both come out and said multiple times that they don't want the position.

I would prefer someone who wants the position.

Spot on. But we need Both of them around the Club OFFICIALLY, & in Power positions.

Lyon as Pres after Jimma.... Jimma to Patron.

I'm starting to think we should go after Balmey, to bring his experience back.. We gave him a good AFL start.

We need Todd to do what he thinks he's best suited to.

After the tripe that has been served up this year i don't blame a few people for dropping off...The season is over...If Richmond fans get excited about finishing 9th again good luck to them.

This club will improve, but it won't be this year....and the crowds will build.....A lot will depend on the next coach appointment

    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.

    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
