Gotta leave out a number of players but here goes ...

6 ... Vince - tough to play well against your old side but he was most impressive

5 ... Viney - tough as ...

4 ... JKH - his first half set up our win. We've found a player.

3 ... Terlich - he never gives up and is super courageous - kudos.

2 ... Dawes - led by example and always creates a contest

1 ... Tyson - ball magnet

Apologies to at least a dozen others. Jamar playing well is very important for us.

I probably (even though he played a really good game) bumped up Vince a bit. But after he called Adelaide "we" a week or so ago, he got stuck in and was nicely aggro, without giving away a free kick. He's a DEE! Good on him for getting a win against the admin that shafted him too.

Unlucky Pedo, JKH, Terlich and Jetta. Have to say everybody can hold there head up today. You've set the bar boys maintain that as a minimum

if you call someone an imbecile because their opinion does not match yours exactly then you are an imbecile

In this world there are such things as facts. Those who do not know facts are imbeciles.

Dawes - best key forward on the ground and nailed the chances he had

Vince - got plenty of the ball but also held Dangerfield to just a reasonable game which was critical

Jetta - Betts had about two shots at goal....and Neville was very assured down there

Grimes - First quarter intercepts ensured we held a good lead at quarter time. Great spoil in the last cancelled out the dropped chest mark with a few minutes left

Viney- Grunt, pace, and poise

Tyson - Clearance machine who continues to improve defensively

Honourable mentions to JKH: Clever player who got us going with a fantastic first goal. Said it before...looks like our Matthew Stokes. Bail was fantastic in the first quarter and played one of his best games for it.

if you don't have Jetta in your votes than you are an imbecile.

That's probably over the top. However some have also excluded Viney; I'm assuming that this is also just an oversight.

With last years less than mediocre players like Pedo, Jetta and Bail going up to another level it makes our list look a lot more healthy. Still can't cop Byrnes form though -doesn't chase or tackle and has little involvement in the game. Only virtue is he knows how to position himself to get on the end of some Joe the a goose goals.

"I think the Nazis were great."

That is someones opinion, and if they thought that, i would say they would be an imbecile.

But you wouldn't. Hmmmm ok, whatever floats your boat.

More often than not over the last few years I've been scratching around among the 'triers' and 'effort players' to find players worthy of the last few slots. This week I struggled to fit them all in. How refreshing that is! Apologies to JKH, Jamar, Grimes and Peddersen, and probably others Who I have missed.

    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
