Apologies to most of the team. One of the most satisfying victories of the past decade for mine (I know there haven't been many). To beat the Crows on their own turf in front of 50,000 of their feral fans, delightful.

This is tough.

6. Dawes - bottom line is we don't win that game without him.

5. Vince - 26 touches, 9 clearances, 6 tackles. Clearly wanted to make a statement.

4. Viney - future captain written all over him. The way he attacks the contest is amazing and inspiring.

3. Jamar - would've silenced a few doubters today. Made Jacobs look very second rate at times.

2. Tyson - could be higher up but Vince and Viney that little bit better.

1. JKH - so composed and still so young. Showing why he was a captain as a junior.

Jetta very unlucky. Was excellent on Betts who usually has a field day.

6 - Chris Dawes - absolute colossus

5 - Dom Tyson - Not hard to see why he was a pick 3 a couple of years ago. Just wins the ball in close, and is great on the outside too. That goal was special.

4 - Jack Viney - unbelievable work rate and unbelievable strength and heart. hes bloody quick too.

3 - Jay Kennedy Harris - his amazing first quarter goal sparked us and he went from strength to strength. Looks like a future midfield star, what a boost for the club getting him at pick 40

2 - Bernie Vince - worked tirelessly and stuck it up his old team

1 - Neville Jetta - so many people wanted him dropped. Roos had faith, and Jetta responded by absolutely smashing Betta, doubling his possessions and making him look VFL level at best. Well done Neville

6. Chris Dawes - set the tone, worked his heart out and kicked the telling goals when they needed to be kicked.

After this very difficult probably a muddle of five or six players who could be anywhere from 5 to 1.

5. Bernie Vince - not confident he deserves to be this high, but thought he was our main midfield driving force at the stoppages.

4. Jay Kennedy-Harris - probably the best crumbing forward game by a Demon since Jeff Farmer. Endless supply of clever traps and gives.

3. Dom Tyson - just a class act and won a heap of the footy again and used it smartly.

2. Jack Viney - hard and tough, bled for the jumper and with Vince, terrific at the stoppages.

1. Jeremy Howe - answered his critics with a stylish game across half-back, his best for a long time.

Jetta and Jamar frighteningly stiff.

    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.
