Agreed

Think theres a surprise or 2 left regarding the MFC

Roos, Mahoney, Viney and co. will not be content with what they've done so far no matter how good its been

I've got a feeling that we may trade a few players out

Ok, Now don't take this as gospel, as it was posted on BF and I never really believe any of the rumors there.. but this one I had to share.

Rumours in Melbourne that Josh Kennedy is a massive chance to become a demon by the end of trade week.

Well known fact Buddy almost "bullied" him at Hawthorn. Kennedy is filthy at the swans and wants out.

Paul Roos is a big player in this, Watch this space

This was posted by a North Melbourne supporter. Dont think that has anything to do with it, just thought I'd add that.

That is a very interesting rumour indeed (complimenting the disgruntled Daniel Hannebery one I read earlier). So thank you for putting your neck out to share this.

If it's true, I believe we would see Pick 9 heading to Sydney (amongst other things). Although would I be complaining to see Jones and Kennedy named as our ball followers, with the likes of Cross, Vince and Viney cycling through the middle... I don't think so.

Have to compliment the club on their discretion this draft period. Aside from Vince which has been quite public and Cross which was blindingly obvious, they have kept the pundits guessing.

Brilliant, Hope it continues and they snare a biggy this week.

IF Josh K rumour true we have wasted pick 2. Big if.

Why is that? Kennedy, Tyson and Jones would form an elite clearance machine…if this happened, I would put money on Melbourne giving the 8 a run.

Daydreaming, the closest we ever get to the finals.

Kennedy at Melbourne= Jaded is one step closer to complete euphoria

Must snap out of this delusion. No way would he leave/Sydney let him go/we can satisfy Sydney in a trade

Only signed for another 4 years earlier this year! Sorry to burst bubbles but nice rumour!

I wouldn't see it as a waste at all. We would have got a previous pick 3 in Tyson and teams would be concerned about tagging Kennedy and Jones leaving the likes of Viney, Tyson, Michie, Trengove and Toumpas to develop far easier into the player we would love them to be. Not to mention the additions of Cross and Vince (Sylvia replacement) who will also help fast-track their development.

The article says the bummers interest has waned, and there are 2 other clubs interested. Could be us

Kennedy to the MFC was my fantasy pick about four or five months ago. Would be hilarious and brilliant if it happened.

    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
