Hey all,

I'm a recent sign up to demonland.

I've started a new blog about being a Dees supporter in our tough times.

I hope some of you guys will find it enjoyable to read over. I'm taking a lighthearted approach to the topic.

So have a look and hit me up with feedback.

www.diarydemon.blogspot.com

If you don't enjoy it please keep feedback constructive rather than crude.

Thanks all,

FCmelb

So it wasn't the worst we could have expected!

I was pretty pleased in patches and then in fits of rage as we softened up and let the Pies kick an easy 4 or 5 goals.

Still, when we showed we actually wanted to go hard we were on terms with them. Take a bow Jack Grimes for the head clash contest.

This is a blog I've started and am writing each week having a look back at the games with a bit of a light-hearted approach.

Have a read.

Feedback very welcome, please keep it constructive if you don't like it.

Thanks,

So season 2 starts with a win.

Can the Dees salvage something from the second half and show us supporters what we so want to see?

I also wanna know, what do we think about the new backline without Garland and Rivers. Will it stay this way???

I spose it's about versatility.

I've started a blog that I hope all supporters enjoy.

Hit me back with some feedback if you're interested.

Cheers,

Thanks to 'Demon' for the feedback.

As a result here's a little bit of this weeks blog:

Footy is a physical game. We often see players go so hard at it that neither gets up unassisted. We watch as bones snap, heads clash and concussion sweeps through a playing list.

This, I already knew.

I did not know, however, that spectating could also prove quite so physically demanding. Waking up Monday morning I felt as though I’d gone three rounds with The Champ (I can just imagine every boxer of the last 10 years, with their self-inflated ego’s, reading this thinking, “hey, he’s talking about me”).

But why?

Well I knew the loss of our favourite son Mitch Clark would hurt but I was hardly prepared for just how much. When the news broke last week I had no plans for a candlelight vigil down at AAMI park.

Now I’m selling candles for $2 each or three for 5. See you there.

If you're interested in checking out the rest please hit the link.

Also please keep that feedback coming. It's much appreciated.

Thanks guys,

Here's the next one guys.

Bit of video content in there this week.

And as with last week here's a little of the blog up front:

I wasn’t able to catch the whole game on Saturday and apparently that wasn’t such a bad a thing. Going off what people have told me, the parts I missed were just about as bad, if not worse, than the one’s I caught.

So what to make of it?

Well, considering the actual game was a battle of who could lose first, maybe we should turn our attention to things that managed to be more painful viewing for the time being. We'll get to the calamity later.

The advertisements. Now these are worse. They have to be.

Latest update following another bout of disappointment.

This week sees a nod to Dennis Parker. Don't know who he is?

You should. And you won't regret it once you do.

Cheers guys,

There’s one thing worse than leading a game for three quarters before conceding seven goals to zip in the last and finishing up 34 point losers. That thing is Fremantle’s club song.

Following a spirited display for most of the game I know I felt pretty flat when the final siren sounded. I sat there thinking, “well, that was rubbish,” and then the Freo club song started, rubbish had new meaning.

Alternatively ,you could quit your rubbish blog and just post random and obscure thoughts on here and cop "feedback" like all the rest of us .

Individuailty is frowned upon in here-so just be yourself .

If you cant be yourself ,then just write what everyone finds socially and morally acceptable so we can drift into a deep coma and ignore the needs of our families/housemates whining and rustling around the place .

I admire your ambition and entreprenuereal spirit in trying to create your own thing but I am suspicious of creativity in general so I have organised a hit man funded by guys like Nasher ,HT ,Old Dee and the Neo cons to vist you at your blogosphere .

Sorry.

Have to say though, totally agree.

    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
