The MRP would probably put him out for the season these days - a MFC player, and some newly dreamed of charge :-(((

As predicted that hit got some good airtime.

It was a great show, although I am biased....love Neita.

Odd question, but does anyone know if he's an asthmatic? Every now and then there was a real wheeze through the mic.

Great viewing. Interesting that he briefly mentioned the discord between Bails and Connelly and that it had an impact. You hear rumours of this stuff on demonland but as someone who loves the club, since it is not public knowledge, you don't want to believe it.

The great man acknowledged that getting rid of Junior was a mistake. I can't understand those who continue to defend it. It was clearly a mistake.

Was a good interview. I love how genuine he is about everything.

Will never forgive Essendon for what they did to Brad Green and Troy Simmons in the grand final.

Michael Long is held up as a great hero but to me anyone who did what he did is contemptible. Dean Wallis is no better.

Strange how that interview stirred up old hostilities.

Seriously, was an amazing ep and he's a great bloke. He's always sitting level 3 and 4 at every Dees match. He still Bleeds Demons and I couldn't respect him more.

Dean Wallis is one of the biggest scumbags to ever play, another Sheedy special.

What a fantastic interview. Looking at Neita I was thinking we could do with him out there now. Neita was and is a champion. Great bloke, great cpatain and despite no flags can hold his head high in the company of Barassi etc. Great to see him and a bunch of the old players getting together for boys weeked in Adelaide for round 7.

Watching Wallis cowardly attack on Green did nothing to improve my opinion of Essendon. Thugs and drug cheats IMO and will be seen as that for a generation.

Don't forget as well that all the players liked the blazer, got along great with Mark Neeld and the only people who were unhappy with the direction of the club were softc***s and charlatans (except Nathan Jones who said he found it tough to go to training).

Though to be fair to Saty, did he actually say that? His reign of terror only began last year didn't it? (before the Connolly and Bailey feud)

What he said.

I look forward to seeing the interview. It's sounds like the closest we will get to hearing a first hand account of what went down leading up to 186 (I believe Neita was working at the club in a capacity at that stage and he was definitely listed as being in the Andrews Report).

I disliked what Essendon did to us in 2000.

Dispassionately - they did what it took to when a premiership and as it much as it hurt, I look forward to the day where we monster and ragdoll a team on the last Saturday in September.

I'm probably out of touch but if knocking kids deliberately about the head is what it takes to win a flag I'll pass. If it happened to my son I'd want blood.

    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.
