Not getting ahead of myself and I realise a lot depends on what happens over the final 9 games or so, but I hope we keep Neil Craig as coach. He is already showing he is building something to work on. Bringing in a new coach next season means reinventing the wheel yet again to another coach's philosophy and style. As long as we remain competitive and win a few more games, and the players like playing for him, I think we are on a read winner here. .

Could also have a lot to do with getting rid of the "ball and chain" or "the dud one" too I would think M. Edited by DemonOX

neeld could not coach, to save his life, lyon had the blinkers on when he selected neeld, lyon mad his mind up to early, and was only ever going to give the job to neeld.

Another 18 mths lost, hopefully we will c success before we are dead!

Jaded used the term r$$ted. When I did that I got banned for a week.

I think your issue with another poster using language that you were banned for is rooted in a perceived miscarriage of justice on your behalf.

I suggest to you that you are in fact a better person than that, and that you should move on with your life.

i think neeld was giving the wrong messages to the players, he made 60 point losses into honorable losses, he also made it ok to lose just because you dont have experience, nothing honorable about 34 point lose

So good to see Chip back in that backline.

Tom is a great defender but please dont run out of defence with the ball it makes me nervous

Maxy said on the radio after the game he needs to get fitter. Said in the last 10 minutes he was feeling it and Minson just kept running.

Watts was great. I think he will be one of those players that is better taking a mark on the lead rather than take one on one marks. But keep that performance up and his confidence will soar.

Jeremy Howes 2 marks were great and im glad he kicked a couple tonight

Dawes just brilliant

Rodan we virtually got nothing for and we got bagged for getting him, but tonight he was good and that goal he kicked was so more exciting than anything I ever saw Cale Morton do.

Im just happy we got a win

Great game.

Very happy.

The new culture is a winning culture.

The new attitude is a winning attitude.

If Craig can instill those beliefs, give him the job.

Our team is talented.

Our team is tough.

Our team is skilled.

Now comes the right coach to instill the right philosophy. A winning philosophy!

A winning coach is what we need. Craig is now 1 for 1. Go get em.

Nouns are words, genius.

Yes, but if you read the word "words" after you have been drinking, the brain can sound it as "verbs"; that's a clinical fact that I just made up, by the way.

I think part of the problem with Tommy Mac wandering around the half forward line is that we aren't aware of how <quick> he is - great tank, but fast as well. We're so unused to getting turnovers that we don't stream forward with much fluency - I reckon a good coach (e.g. Craig) will want him to run - makes tons of ground - and will help the team structure up around him. I think he's going to be really damaging - imagine if he had Stevie J / Bartel etc etc around him...

Such a great night - not downhill skiing, just really exciting footy from the team we love!!!

    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.
