The moderators here have strict guidelines when it comes to personal and insulting posts... At least when it's directed at them rather than a former player battling depression

It's calmed down since Rhino Richards was given the boot. I'm still carrying a demerit point from that knobend.

The bad news is it's the other foot. The good news is he now has two bad feet.

It is May 1st and I have been practicing mindfulness as part of my yoga training. Each month we focus on a different emotion and try to modify our thought process in

relation to this emotion. This month we focus on compassion (to ourselves and others) and it is only 9 hours into the month and I am struggling with my first challenge thanks to MC. Damm you - I was doing so well.

Hahaha Lucky!

Rhino gave me 9 in one go

Still got 'em :)

Yeah I'm carrying a bunch and get threatened with more anytime I disagree with anyone of them... (Well certain ones anyway)

I'm 65, been following the demons since 1958 when I walked to my grandmother's house in North Sunshine and watched the last quarter of a team getting flogged and sympathized with them. Of course, it was the 1958 Grand Final. I have a 17 year old daughter who said to me recently that I always barrack for losers!

I must say, my sympathy capacity has just about worn out and I've lost my re charger. That's precisely why I remain angry that Clark and Frawley walked out on the demons and it's precisely why when they get injured a small part of me rejoices.

He Dieter, I'm too young to remember 1958. Are you saying you watched a replay on that then new fangled device called television? Live coverage of the Grand Final started in 1977. When did replays of football matches begin? I can remember them from the mid-1960s onwards.

Oh, back on topic. I'll swim against the tide and hope Mitch Clark recovers quickly, although I'd be happy for him to miss a week when we play Geelong. My view about his departure has always been that it was in his best interests mentally to do so and that's much more important than what it means for our club (who happened to do well out of it by securing Lumumba).

Mitch is like a hot girlfriend I've loved and lost, and later hear shes caught the clap. I'll smile for a second, then genuinely wish her well as I turn back to my new hot girlfriend...

Oh grow a humour muscle.

Sorry, but once the same joke has been made over and over and over, it tends to wear a little thin.

    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.
