Wouldn't it be seriously ironic if Roos guided us into last place despite the tangible improvement between rounds 4-15 and the major praise heaped on the man.

A win against either Brisbane or GWS OR if Saints fail to win another game should see us avoid the spoon.

Yeah, but we've improved.....

So why can't we beat North like the other crap teams ?!

Bitter but optimistic

It would be different if he'd had a full preseason.

And we beat Adelaide on their home ground and Adelaide belted GWS, we beat Richmond who beat GWS and Saints Don't send yourself over the edge trying to compare results

Where has that been from St Kilda all year?

More importantly though, how did Fremantle let that happen? To lose to the bottom side is bad enough, but to lose by 10 goals and be comprehensively outplayed the whole game is unfathomable.

Opens the door for Port to get back in the top 4, too, as if they needed more incentive for tomorrow.

Anyone who thinks we have a good list should look at tonight's results.

In the last two weeks we have been soundly beaten by Freo and Geelong.

The saints double Freos score and GWS get within a goal of Geelong.

We are fairly ordinary.

Saw Freo's last quarter against GWS last week. They were playing like the cliche millionaires. Starting to get lazy and asking for a big fall. They have had a long run of easy games with little opposition. A rude awakening for them. St Kilda came to play.

I said after the Collingwood game we were still the worst team in the comp

I got shouted down by a few of the posters here who think they are experts when they know nothing about footy

we are still by far the worst team in the comp

I think St Kilda, Brisbane, GWS, and us are all as bad as each other, although our last month has been pretty awful.

I don't think any team in the comp this year is anywhere near as bad as the 2013 MFC, or the 2013 GWS for that matter.

I love how that moron Ross Lyon finally paid the price for resting his gun players against low ranked teams

Possibly cost his club a top 4 finish

Eat [censored] you arrogant disrespectful [censored]

Who's going to finish 8th?

Collingwood? They're falling apart.

Adelaide? Seriously? They don't strike me as a finals side; I'd be pretty disappointed to see them make it.

Gold Coast? Their best is the best of these three teams but they're not going to get close without Ablett, and they don't look like winning enough games (slash even one more game).

Watching Collingwood's slide just warms the heart. I love how quickly their fans turn on them as well.

This will probably make you shake your head P-man but I was barracking for the Pies yesterday.

I dislike Adelaide with unequalled enthusiasm.

When we beat them earlier in the year it was my Grand Final for 2014.

In the AFL of the 21st Century they are the team I never support.

    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 sta

    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
