Would hope that this is a further use of the practice arena to utilise the features of the squad.

Maybe more of a run at Casey at a lower level to fine tune and yes rest for round 1 if needed.

Probably needs to give Green a run

Paterns systems structures all need to be trialled. I hope we have more than one

We cannot play all players in every match I think rotation could be a good asset as long as we win a few games with the team and pattern we choose for the particular opponent.

Why was Watts dropped and Fitzgerald rested!

Because Watts is in the mix for round one Fitzpatrick is a back up ruckman that hopefully we don't see at AFL level this year, he has a rest then resumes his VFL preparation, hopefully Watts is on fire and gets on track for round 1

Really nice, solid squad , its taller and more mature than recent year. I really like it.

Yet it looks to have good upside with some "potential" sitting in the wings that have to prove themselves to get a game - both physically & mentally.

Makes me feel very positive that we are now heading in the right direction. I really like it.

PS Cant wait to get Viney & spend those Scully picks

I honestly think that squad looks slow. For every thoroughbred there are 2 clydesdales.

What does everyone think re the result of this game.

Last game of 2011 Port beat the Dees by 9 points but I never thought we looked like winning

New FD

very similar players to then

Dees average pre season form

Port looking better than 2011

Played in Adelaide

Result dees by 4 points

However zero confidence

Jeremy Howe, 40. Mark Jamar, 46. Josh Tynan, 47. Tom Couch

Watts dropped no Gysberts Grimes or Tappy.

So will it will look something like this:

FB: Garland - Frawley - Bartram

HB: Rivers - Sellar - Bennell

C: Jones - Bate - Trengove

HF: Howe - Green - Petterd

FF: Davey - Clark - Dunn

R: Jamar - Moloney - Sylvia

I: Blease - Joel Mac - McDonald - Martin - Tynan - Couch - McKenzie

Not a weak team, and with the inclusion of Tappy, Magner, Grimes and Watts for Round 1, we are looking to have a decent team.

Like it was yesterday OD! Fair bit has changed since then though i would think.

That is my worry Demonator.

The players are basicaly the same.

They have had only 3 games to totally change the way they play.

So far they have shown me little that they can excute the new plans.

Now I am wrapped if that happens on Friday

but I am not expecting anymore than a close win.

I just think we couldn't have been any lower at that stage last year and we only got pipped. I'm not saying we've all of a sudden become world beaters, but i just think 'enough' has changed for us to convincingly beat PA.

    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.

    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
