At this point, I'd be happy if we won more than 4 games in a season.

Who we assemble off field will be far more important than any far fetched what ifs on field.

absolutely... i'm not truly convinced on daisy & his health as well. I'd rather an older mature player from the Cats & the Hawks... not convinced by the pies culture either.

I would love to get those 2 over the line, & would consider blease packaged with watts & a pick,,, or + another mature player.

Absolutely, we'd have to pay 900k to get thomas, i'd rather offer them 450 k each for 5 years and lure them back to vic.

and to satisfy the trade, Jack watts, Mark Jamar and pick 21?

Tyson signed back on with them, my hope is Aish with pick 2, PP at 3 for an established player, trade Watts to Carlton for pick 9 and swap that pick to GWS for Taylor Adams.

I'd be reluctant to trade Watts. But i'd be very happy to drop pick 21 and Jamar.

I think everyone agrees with that?

Watts to Carlton for pick 9? If its clear Watts is not committed to MFC where do we sign? Carlton could not be that silly...well they did cough pick 12 for McLean..

I'm not convinced that i'd want to get rid of Jack Watts. With pick 9 though, i'd definitely trade pick 9 for Dom Tyson and there second round pick? (with GWS)

They would want to say yes to coming to us first..

Well, Tyson isnt getting a game at GWS and i am convinced that he will be a star!

Adams doesnt want to sign at this stage, so clearly he wants out.

THOMAS cost too much,breakdown a lot and we would turn him into crap.Adams o.k

Get CRIPPS and SHEEDS from WA as they are tough. M.JONES,C.SYLVIA, and J.McKENZIE to go.

N.JONES,TRENGOVE forward line,GRIMES defence,FITZY wing.EVANS,KENT with more training as possible mids.

Our midfield except viney where truly shown up against FREO.

I am still having a laugh at the dude who said I am glad you do not pick the side...we lost to the KANGAS by 20 goals.

EADE has been interviewed by the Dees,why go any further.Nothing like suspense.

I cant believe you just rate Adams as ok, yet you're wanting to pick up players who havent played

Would be happy with that though I feel they may want pick 9 for Daisy and give us Yarren for Watts. I personally don't want Yarren. Interesting trade period ahead.

Pick 11 if my memory serves me correctly.

Still managed to stuff it up though, given that we should've picked Lewis Jetta, Talia or Bastinac (or, to be fair, Tapscott - pick 18) with that pick.

But our own brand of professional recruiters obviously knew more that the Emma Quayles of the world.

And that's why it's especially gut wrenching to see Richmond and North right now.

I feel like shooting myself.

If dont get at least three or four top quality mids, we will have another pathetic year.

Strap yourself in for another year slightly less promising than the last.

Not if we manage to lure some good on ball talent, if we dont however then i agree with you.

    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.
