noticed the bagging has slowed to a crawl???

now lets be positive

can we beat GWS and BRIZZY turn out 2/3

can we not self implode for the next 12 months

can we let younger players not be targets of media and demonland posts for the rest of season.

can we at least pick on other clubs instead of our own for the next month

Yes we can and we will.

We have just played 3 pretty red hot teams, and have learned alot in those three games.

Time to turn it on for four quarters.

Big Maxy will lead the revival.

We can beat GWS but that doesn't mean that we will with our confidence in the toilet.

There is no way we can or will beat Brisbane at the GABBA. If we could not beat them Round 1 at the G last year then there is no way we can hope to even come within 100 points of them at the Gabba,

I like people's confidence but I have watched us the past 3 weeks and at the moment we wouldn't beat Dimboola 3rds. No offence to Dimboola 3rds.

Dimboola don't kick off their season until next weekend, I reckon we could get over them as we have had more game time

Dimboola don't have Thirds as such but they do have U 17s Football AND Netball Teams.

We'd be a very big show against either. Come on.

dont know about the netball, dont think we have a wing attack to take on a 16 yo country girl with venom, who has just milked 500 cows and fed the calfs before the game???

They should beat GWS by 10-12 goals.

There is too much class up forward and too much experience down back for GWS to really challenge this squad. There are no excuses if they lose this week.

Brisbane, on the other hand, will run rings around Melbourne at the GABBA. You can bookmark that.

Yeah we won by 13 goals last year on the MCG but GWS are now fitter, stronger and older, we may not have 10 of last year's side and we got 8 goals out of Rivers, Bate, Jamar and Davey. It'll be no stroll in the Fitzroy Gardens.

Please let Maxy come in this week and dominate.

He can go a long way to lifting our clearance fortunes.

I think even if he can't tap to advantage, with his size he should be able to (tactically) thump the ball forward. That would be better than losing all center clearances.

With Patton out (poor kid, ACLs are tough to bounce back when your that tall), that sholuld help a bit

We have the cattle to play well enough to beat Brisbane, its a matter of will they come to play, if they can reproduce some of that first half form against the Weagles then we have a chance. Sooner or later Dawes 4 weeks are going to finish so it may give us a bit more bite up forward.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
