That's bull, dropped some sitters and laughed about one of them, good at presenting but needs to hold his marks and make the most of the few opportunities he gets

I thought kicking 2 goals 2 from limited opportunities was a decent result. Yeah he should have marked that one in the pocket, and he knew it, but he was certainly one our better players and has been the last few weeks.

Watts was good today. FMD everyone here enjoys giving Watts a beating no matter what he does. Given its his what, third game of the past two years as a forward, and given he was without Clark and fo

Watts would be a gun forward with a fully fit Mitch Clark and Dawes. I could see him making the same impact as what Jack Gunston makes at hawthorn.

This is what I would go with personally, we don't need wholesale changes but it gets the right people in IMO. If Jamar is ready to go then perhaps Gawn will be stiff to miss out, but I think Fitzy is starting to get a bit of confidence so I'd like to keep playing him. Wouldn't say no to Jamar playing for Casey for a week to earn his spot.

I saw Jamar at the G on Saturday night with crutches and a very large supporting frame around his (left) lower foot area (bit like those butterfly devises put around thumbs needing support). With my vast medical knowledge can add nothing more as to his prospects of playing but would not be holding my breath

My take on Watts game was that although statistically it wasn't a massive game, I saw more of the things I wanted to see from him in terms of aggression etc. He has had 20+ possession games in the past that have been awful and full of cheapies.

If he plays at that level each week, Saturday's performance would become a baseline and we would see dramatic improvement.

Magner before Jetta.

also Dunn is finished, don't play him again, make's too many mistakes. Has been at the club for years and is still crap, the same can be said for Jamar.

As long as Jamar doesn't come in and Gawn does I'll be happy.

I can't believe evryone is leaving Byrnes in their sides. Every possession he had other than his goal, thanks to Flash, was a turnover. Doesn't try and spoil if the ball is a bit high for him. Can't run. Insipid chasing. Offers nothing.

If we pick him in a side, we are waving the white flag.

Gotta justify that 2 year contract

Surely Magner has to play? What was the point in elevating him and then not playing him despite getting more than 30+ touches for Casey every week.

When Neil Craig rewards Clisby (deserved the call up) for consistent performances in the VFL, I thought of Magner & Couch straight away. Seeing that Magner was elevated from the rookie list and his consistent performances over that last 2 years @ VFL, then surely he deserves a call up, no he has earnt a call up.

I too like Tall's team. Perhaps Jetta, Magner or another mid in for Byrnes.

I bet the team will come out tomorrow and we will all be dumbfounded though. The thought process of us on here rarely aligns with their thinking. But if Pedersen plays, I won't be happy.

I know that McKenzie is viewed differently by many here, but I get the feeling that if he is fit then he will play.

With that in mind, I'd probably amend TD's suggestion to include McKenzie.

    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.
