Good work. Always tough to do this week in week out. Vanders was going a lot of enforcing before he was subbed out. Though McDonald picked up once he got off Cloke and worked his way back in - good learning game from him.

Agree that Garlett needs to be in the game for more than 2 minutes.

I'm not sure what sort of statement Lamumba made.

Crazy Horse Lumumba in the first half, unbelievable stuff early. Redeemed himself in the second half somewhat.

I generally look forward to the 3 word descriptions, but this one is just too much. To described jack watts as a "bipolar performances" is absurd, apart from being hugely insulting about this very unfortunate condition. The Regs should censor this immediately

One of my relatives is bipolar, and I can tell you Jack Watts is so far away from bipolar that it is not funny. If this poster is determined to insult our number one draft pick, thereby ensuring he leave, then it may give him varcarious pleasure, but it makes this demon suppiorter extremely angry. All it will do is ensure he leaves. God we shoot ourselves in the foot sometimes.

It's just a word, mate.

that was not what you meant.

If it was, your three word summary was that Watts has a head and feet. Well, come to think of it...

I'm bipolar and I think the comment is very humorous. Loosen up gang.

I like this list better; although I thought Fitzy will keep his place because his man did nothing. Dunn was OK on Cloke, considering one of his three goals was from a very poor decision. Totally agree that Toumpas is coming along slowly.

The loss to the pies was honourable one,consider they won a premiership in 1990 ( a Roos type comparison everytime we lose).Next year should be good (6-8 wins) Frost,Salem,Petracca,Neal-Bulleen,Kent,M.White,Vanderberg,Stretch all available should improve our

stocks,plus No.3 or 4 draft pick.Who does the club get rid of? The Dees in the past have got rid of players only to be replaced by the same sort of players,we must try harder to get the fringe players up to scratch otherwise we will end up with a relatively inexperience

reserves side and we all know what effect that has on the club in time of senior players getting injured.

Why not 6-8 wins this year? We already have three, have played most of the top of the ladder, have most of the rest of our games against those in the lower half of the ladder. Do you really think we cant get three more wins this year?

I would be disappointed if we didn't beat StKilda at least once (we should win twice), and we should beat Carlton and Brisbane. There is three or four right there.

    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.
