I think we are a sneaky chance if we can find someone to stand up and kick some goals and play a consistant 4 qtrs..... But as i've said in other posts I am not going to hold my breath and be let down again this season haha

We've played some good footy and some pretty poor footy lately it will be an interesting match in more ways then 1

I will also be interested in the off feild hand shaking - Will McLardy pay Db a visit/???? haha

I'm going to the club's Foundation Hero's function tonight and this talk of Aussie has jolted my memory of last year's event when I was delighted to be the happy highest bidder for Aussie's autographed number 33 jumper.

I think it was the following weekend that Aussie made his return after a long period out whilst grieving for his late father Matthew and mentor Maurice Rioli. History says that Aussie damaged an ankle playing for Casey that weekend and was delisted at the end of the year.

I sponsor Max Gawn and the day after I sent off the sponsorship payment Maxie did his ACL.

Tonight, I'm not buying a thing but next year I'm going to call GWS and offer to sponsor Tom Scully.

This game seems like a lifetime ago!

Wonder who will have the more useful inside info in the coaches box? Although Bailey knows the boys well and so will Craig.

Would make for an interesting sub plot if the result wasnt destined to be 60+ points

Thinking about it now I will be very interested in the final result, just to see how competitive we are becoming.

We haven't been flogged for a while (sydney off the top of my head was the last time) this game will either give the Neeld haters more bait or support the positive argument that we are getting better.. It could be an interesting game after all!!

Surely the Dees have had their fair share of bad luck this year!!!

Very true old dee......

Lucky for us the finals are upon us and this one might slip under the radar?? I hope that is what the AFL are thinking hahaha

But in all seriousness if they sanction us - surely they have to look at Carlton, Hawks, Pies, Dogs, Saints and anyone else who has received a priority pick? This is Watergate esc.... surely no one single entity is to blame and the AFL CEO will have to fall on his sword??

If the worst should happen UH I expect the MFC to attack everyone and ever thing in sight.

Go for every throat in view.

At that point what would we have to lose.

If we are going down lets take the ship with us.

Still it probably will not happen so lets cross that bridge when we get to it.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
