To answer a few of your questions.

Dawes kicked the first goal & moved ok in the first quarter. Starved a bit against the wind.

Spencer is playing and doing well in the ruck.

Strauss who was also named an emergency for the Demons, is playing well again and is pushing for promotion. Would be good if he could get the call up for the Carlton game, the club that he had that bad break against 2 years ago.

Nicholson is the emergency who flew to Brisbane with the Melbourne team.

KC, I can't express how helpful it is that you do this for us all on D'Land. Thanks for all you do mate. It's a big help.

Folks, there's been a fair bit of unnecessary bickering on this thread tonight. Any more will result in immediate bans being put into effect. Thanks.

I went along to the game tonight but missed the first 10 minutes. Casey is normally windy but tonight is was ridiculous. At one point I had to move because my eyes were watering into the wind! I was

Jack Fitzpatrick starring.

Casey has been very good this year in its third quarters and tonight was no exception.

Three quarter time: Casey Scorpions 13.8.86 to Williamstown 7.10.52. Fitzpatrick has four goals including three that quarter. Lynden Dunn starring down back and causing damage with a couple of long goals coming down the ground. James Magner in everything in the midfield.

The game's not over yet but I'd rather be in front, even against this wind.

Maybe i jumped the gun a little with the whole jumping off a bridge thing, glad to hear he is okay, anyone got the scores?

I am afraid that was a one way ticket!

So pumped with Casey like I never have before (maybe because half the team contains young MFC players and they actually win!)

Is it to early to say the ins for next week - Dunn, Dawes, Kent and Strauss?

The thing i find the most pleasing about casey is when the senior players come back to casey they seem to play really well get their confidence right up and play well when they are recalled, it's exactly what you want from your reserves :)

just got a text from a mate who has told me Toumpas has 35 touches and 2 goals

pretty sure hes just talking [censored] though

Should have never been thrown into AFL straight away. He should have at least adjusted to VFL first (which I asume is higher standard than WAFL?)

Would have only made him doubt his ability.

he played sanfl. The standard isn't too much worse. And he out played Evans and others in preseason. Problem is club didnt expect to have him in 100 point debacles. In a winning afl side he'd still look ok

Wouldn't that be great! Seriously doubt it, glad to hear Fitz is stepping up.

Our VFL side is stocked with a lot of promising players.

not convinced Fitzy is one of them. He still drops too many marks then cleans up his mistake. Won't get away with that at afl. Even if he makes it he'll be up and down. Lets see

sanfl I'd say, & I agree... we went into the first game to young & way too inexperienced, with NO form on any board. selection panel???

    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
