Last time this year and the big question is whether the news of the possible appointment of Paul Roos will have an effect in the mindset of the players and turn what would otherwise be a non event into a game worth attending.

Also - good luck to Flash on a great career somewhat diminished by injury in the latter years.

I feel there is nothing that could make the MFC current team perform well.

But I would live to be proven wrong.

Can anybody calculate the required winning margin of GWS over the Suns to be able to pass us and leave us in last place

Now that would really finish the year on a great note and slightly improve our draft!

There are a few variables in the equation, the margin in our own game being one.

If we lost and held the margin to 8 goals (which is the line bet) and the GWSGs squeaked home (against the 7+ goal line) the Spoon result would be close to a dead-heat.

Boys will be filled with purpose after their little chat with Mr Roos, thinking we will really come to play

especially Wattsy and Sylvia

Against all reason, I still harbor an irrational man-love for Neville Jetta. Here's hoping he kicks 10 goals and has 50 possessions today. That way, he might just stay on our list next year.

I've spent Nev's whole career wanting more than anything for him to light up. As an MFC supporter, to have a kid who works really hard, is tough as nails turn and made entirely of the right stuff turn out to be no good just seems cruel, but alas, that's what we've got with him sadly.

He will probably end up sub - if he has a really good game and we struggle to secure a small forward in the draft/trade then he just might keep his spot.

Really expected big things fro him this year but is walking on very thin ice. Who knows what we would be saying about him if he didn't get that 3 week suspension (just when his form was good).

Actually on paper our team looks capable of winning [but then again, that has been the tease all season]!

expect a bit more spring in their step today. I think the workrate and second efforts might up tempo.

its so much between the ears who really knows what outcome possible .

Think theyll try to go out with respect and not a whimper now.

go dees

A comment from a true believer.

However I no longer this team can achieve anything.

I still can not understand how the team won two games.

With the lead that the Suns have over GWS at the moment, no matter what the result for us today our ladder position will remain second last.

Fridays is just something to get it down on paper. The 22 don't have to start in their allotted positions. Pre-game the interchange must be the commencing bench for the start of the match.

Thanks - Sylvia should start on the ground (need all the big senior bodies out there from the bounce)

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
