Wouldn't everyone be surprised if we won?

Win? I just want to see the players actually play as something that loosely resembles a team.

Relax. We've got this.

either 2 things will happen.

1. Melbourne will put in a good effort and it will be a VERY tight game, maybe even Melbourne could snatch it. But they will put in a good hard bodied effort, showing some fight.

2. We will get smacked around and possibly lose by another 100.

There will be noinbetween 6 goal loss, it'll be clear cut.

Also WCE eagles havent won at the MCG since 2010.

How many did the swans have in the gf? You dont need to have football skills to tackle.

What has schwab got to do with the number of tacklers we have

This will add to the current and past number of record scores against the dees

Not only a win for west coast but a record score if we play like last week

That's a surprising stat.

If we had 22 blokes who gave a [censored] and worked hard going both ways, we'd be in with a chance.

WC getting Kerr and LeCras back is going to hurt. I am only seeing one outcome.

Just please, please, EFFORT. Do NOT lose the tackle count.

It's no longer matter of judging how much worse we are than our opposition by goals per game, but by goals per quarter.

I guessed before the game we were a 5 goal per quarter worse team than Essendon, and thus undervalued the Bombers!

Considering the Eagles aren't in the greatest form, I reckon 4 goals a quarter, so a 16 goal loss.

We're gonna set SOOOOO many records this year......

Beating the eagles at the G possible

Reasons Why

Hopefully Kerr and Lecras play - under done and returning too quickly from injury

New players in team such as Jetta & Evans have pace and will have a serious crack at playing well and staying in the team

Eagles are not getting many forward entries at present.

Jamar can compete against a non spring heeled ruckman in Cox

Tappy to kick 4 in breakout game.

Clark and Trengrove to keep getting better each week after long layoffs

Go Dees we can win this game

I'm heading there with the optimism that fills me every weekend, no matter the result the week before.

I am dreaming of a tight fought win and the turning of the tide but really who knows what will happen, tis football!

All I know is even if we get hammered I'd be much happier there watching the game than working or doing God knows what else.

In 2010 no one gave us any chance agianst the pies and we did much better than expected.

We wont win a qtr if we play like last week.

Hopefully the Dees win some balls in the centre and not let opposition players run riot on their own.

we are dead set no chance

who's got $400,000 to place on a sure thing?

Remember Geelong were a sure thing against the pies not long ago and they got beaten by 50+ points on a Friday night

Django, your first two lines equal mine every week.

But when we get hammered I turn into a raging nutter. I hate it. I become abusive and a road rager. I need to stop going for a while.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    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.
