Crows might top our 148 point loss here, looking pretty bad for the Giants, in the 4th quarter and the scumdog millionaire has 8 touches.

I cannot get my head around the fact we were 3 goals down to them at three quarter time. On our home ground. That is absolutely shameful.

I don't know if it's neeld to blame, or not, i just know this forum is more interesting than our games. It feels like we are all prisoners talking through the walls to each other

They played better that day - that's what happens with young teams.

Next week, they might get to within 5 - 7 goals of the Hawks. Remember, they were leading the Bombers by a long way.

It happens.

It's crazy isn't it, I mean the crows aren't even that good, can't see them making the 8 this year without Tex

If they get within 5 goals of the Hawks, I will eat my hat. My nicest hat.

I can see Geelong beating them by 200 points at Skilled.

I hope you don't have to chow down on your hat.

Won't be 200....Cats will stay in first gear all day.

60 - 80 points.

the wet will suit our game style, gold coast have good skills and stuff but we play scrappy contested football, so the conditions and ground are in our favour

Have just driven down from the bush for my first game this year and signed up to be a member for the first time ever. Its worth signing up just to have a chat to the very lovely young girls selling the memberships:)

Might have to sign up twice.

I put a hundred on the Dees earlier today. Full time /half time double @ $2.75

Smart bet, we have jumped them every time we have played them.

Another massive Neeld error. For several days the weather forecast has been for late rain. As I look at the radar it would seem that we are in for a very wet game. Simply we are way to tall for wet conditions. There is no excuse for this. It is an incredibly unprofessional error. My opinion of Neeld has again dropped. He is a disaster

We will get smashed due to the midfield dominance of GC and lack of beneath the knees agility due to playing too tall for the conditions.

Maybe this will be Neelds last.

Shut-up FFS!!!!! Boooooooooorrrrrrring!!!!

No love from any of the commentators today, but that's okay; they're all hacks anyway.

PS Max Gawn's had a shave, so I think we're officially fuzz-free across the board. The closest thing to a beard on any of our players is Jeremy Howe's customary 5 o'clock shadow.

Yeah, it's almost like a televisual version of Demonland ;-)

    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
