AFL Round 6 (non MFC games)

Recommended Posts

Jeezus! The Cats are slaughtering the Pies. Don't know whether Geelong are really still that good or maybe Eddiewood are just having a bad one.

They heard Eddie threatened to quit and they are trying to help him fast track his decision?

The teams Collingwood has beaten so far: Brisbane, St Kilda, Carlton. Essendon. Lost to Adelaide, Geelong. The only half decent team they've beaten is Essendrug. They've got Richmond, Gold Coast, Demons and GWS before the bye. The only high rated other team they play before the bye is Norf. Seems like a much easier draw than ours!!

Noticed that Mitch Clark wasn't at the post match singing of the club's song with his teammates. Then Chris Scott was asked in his press conference about "an emotional Mich Clark" in the rooms and what the situation there was. Chris Scott claimed to not be aware of it.

I thought something was very wrong when he missed that goal out on the full. He's just about the best set shot I've ever seen, so to see that was very strange.

People probably teased him again i guess.

Chris Scott claimed not to be aware of Clark being emotional post game, yet Ch7 just showed Clark crying as he came down the race with Chris Scott putting his arm around Clark and consoling him. Good of Chris Scott to then tell us all that he knows nothing about it!

Chris Scott says he is not aware of the situation.

A few minutes later a replay is shown of Chris Scott consoling Clark into the rooms.

Something was really not right with Clark. He was quite upset. I'm guessing he got some really bad news once the game ended.

Post game coverage mentioned that more would be revealed tomorrow.

i know we all kind of like/hate/despise the guy, but this image is still quite heartbreaking. Behind all the rubbish, stands a human being just like all of us:

Hmmm... Rumours that a pie player landed on his foot in a marking contest and that he limped off the ground.

He didn't look like he was limping to the rooms though?

I think Melbourne supporters have all felt their fair share of heartbreak over Mitch Clark. I'm done with him, and couldn't care less if he never plays another game. Harsh, but that's how I feel.

It was exactly the same as the 2nd time he hurt it with us, exactly the same, same spot near the point post, just the opposite end of the G. I'll try to find it when I get some time.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
