Round 6: Predictions & General Discussion

Crowd of 1000 at Metricon?

What an insult to the integrity of the game Vlad has created. Conversely, nearly 10,000 went along to watch Taylor Walker play Glenelg last night.

And to think these two teams are holding all the talent from the last 5 years hostage, while teams like us, Carlton and the Bulldogs struggle to win anything.

I think it was Michael Voss who said this morning on radio that GW$ have 22 first round picks playing today!!

FFS!!

nobody cares. 1,000 people today??

Vlad has a lot to answer...

Matthew Campbell, Tony Shaw, Brad Johnson. I have more sympathy for the listeners, frankly.

At least it isn't BT. On radio earlier the idiot was laughing off the idea of the Anzac Eve Dees vs Tiges match, on the basis that the Dees are playing rubbish footy and "nobody would turn up".

GWS are rubbish without Mummy. How I wish he'd been injured when we played them.

We were much more competitive against the Cuns than they are, yet we lost to both teams.

And in the end that is the only stat that really counts

AS much as I hate him he is right a bit hard to argue that one

Seriously when is someone going to put the heat on scully. 10 possessions he is up to. Yes he may have the tag on Ablett but he isnt playing like a 1 million dollar player. Its because he is up there out of the medias way.

Also heard an interesting stat. Nic Nat hasnt taken a mark in the past 3 games.

I read somewhere that he is the most important player to any team in the league right now and on current evidence it's hard to disagree. Absolutely amazing that Sydney let him go.

"the most important" ? Who would write that crap.

Rumours say the playing group were furious that signing Buddy cost them Mumford; he was a beloved member of the team.

And in the next few years when nobody decides to re-sign with the Swans due to necessarily low-ball contracts, he'll be the first of many.

On another note, as if they needed it , but the suns have themselves a real star with kade kolodjashnij. You throw him with swallow, prestia, omera, Mckenzie, Martin to come back. I'm top of Ablett, harbrow, Stanley. I personally feel they've had too much of a handout. Seems the afl went from one extreme to the other after the Sydney/Brisbane concessions.

Never. He's way up there in football no-where land, so nobody will ever notice him enough to put any of the appropriate heat on.

These 2 clubs will play off for a premiership soon.

Is that what the rank and file supporter wanted???

Vlad will go down as a disaster

He's a beauty.

Like Thompson, clever big man played out of position in the ruck and acquitted himself well. Will be an AA defender in the next few years, can we get him???

no way nic nat is worth $1.1m a year for the next five.

he was awful, again.

What do you mean he had 10 possessions and took a mark, make him AA.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
