Well done Jackovich Lives on you victory this weekend. Was dam close until Cyril sealed my fate with 4 goals. Shame his hammy didn't go bang in the First quarter. At 1 - 4 I can feel a big trade coming on. So who is interested in Jack Darling, Col Sylvia (ave close to 20 posies still) and Tyrone Vickory ( ruck/ forward)? Lets make a deal!!!!!!!

Cheers OMR. Seems most games are damn close this year, takes just one player to have a day out that ends up beig the difference. Any interest in Goodes for Sylvia?

Was great getting over the line against Scarlett in Round6.

Although a little lucky would have been really stiff with Stanton going down early in be second quarter.

Every week gets harder and harder,

congrats to all Winners.sorry to losers.

Some big results over the weekend! OMR wow and rpfc kicking 22 goals thanks to Lynch against RR to get the choccies.

May be interested in a trade, then again maybe not, the team members are producing where it counts at the Hurricanes. Good game JCB (3-zip now) :)

Well done to all winners in round 8. Some big upsets and some serious ladder movement. Very happy with my lads at the minute. Have rebounded from that disastrous 0 - 3 start to now have the win/loss ledger at 4 - 4 after a hat trick of victories. Biggest dilemma for 15 teams is how to stop the rampaging RPFC? 8 - zip is an imposing start. Hopefully the cracks are appearing by round 15 when I get my crack at the juggernaut .

Yeah, I seem to be able to keep going from my terrible trading...

Although the Riewoldt, Danger Mouse, and Ziebell for Redden, Thompson, and Walker did give me a massive upgrade on Ziebell and an elite tackler and kicker...

I guess we will see how that trade goes later in the season.

It's funny though, I have only one keeper from last year remaining and traded out my first 2 picks in the draft. Only Le Cras, Garlett, Armitage, and O'Keefe remain from my draft that play in the 12 starting positions...

So 4 from the draft, 1 keeper, 3 traded players, and 4 FAs.

I only realised this week you could still draft in players...while playing 1 or 2 backman short each week...I wonder if any results would be different...oh well my bad for not reading the fine print and making the rookie mistake...an extra backman didn't help me this week...well done snomeD

heh - everyone seems to figure out the thing they didn't realise they could do the week they play me :) Could have gone either way in the end - unlucky having Libba on the bench!

12-7 is just a victory Scarlett. Your boys fought hard until the end. 8 goals from your Roo boys really made this a contest. JCB drops a game from nowhere, Hollywood hits back. HT takes out ladder leader RPFC. Jako solid again. Robbo 24 hits the top 8. MM back on the winners list. Range Rover unable to stop the bleeding still, now dropped 5 in a row. The next 3 Bye rounds about to test us all bigtime.

Very apprehensive against you this week OMR. I look at your recent scores and think wow, insurmountable. Where or how will I get up?

Couple of forced changes for me because of the bye might just give me a wake up to re-jig my list and hopefully strengthen it.

Got to say Jackovich lives just keeps chalking them up. Under the radar JL!

rpfc, close call on weekend, could have gone either way going into last game. I'll have to thank the Tigers for their close checking on LeCras.

That's a first. Thanking the 'Tigers.....'

Looks like I'm going to get pantsed this week HT, will be going in with half a side at best against Scarlett, this bye week is going to hurt me big time, will cop it on the chin and hopefully bounce back strongly when I can get Rioli, Sylvia, Rockliff and Cooney back on the park after injury/suspension as well as reasonably filed side

Dodged a bullet with Hodge getting off his charge. When I heard he was contesting I thought he was gone for a couple, still don't understand how he got off but I'm not complaining. So far I'm 1 - 1 with the byw rounds, going to be tough to beat stinga this week.

Nearing the time in which my Competitive Pecentage Indicator kicks in...

When a team is mathematically out of finals contention I am going to grab the percentage and the W/L/D tally and measure who increases theirs the most relative to their original percentage.

It will reward the team that does the best after they learn they cannot make the finals. And it is relative to how they went while they were still in contention.

I think I am more excited about this than the actual games.

Which is pathetic...

    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
