You can't go from promising youngster to best full back in the game in 6 months, basically. Or at least, it's highly unlikely. He's showed what his absolute best output can be when all the stars align

Agree on howe crap stats but crashed many important packs and kicked well under pressure when needed

Yeh, there aren't many better options under 25 for key position back/ probably not many better in the comp. Despite having some poor form in the last few weeks, he was not too bad this week. Comple

Sorry for sour note, Mc Donald has had a wretched 3 weeks

IMV Brainfades becoming more frequent! Happy to trade him for something better next season!

I don't disagree, you are. But seriously, who would we be available to trade for that is better, in your opinion?

I honestly don't see what has given you the thoughts that he is not going to be the future of our key back stocks

All 17 other clubs would definitely look to trade him in

Brayshaw - Suck [censored] Thurlow!!

Brayshaw - remind me....how many years has he been on our list? How many preseasons?

OMG - when he gets a few preseasons under his belt and a few games up he could be ok!!

Whilst I'm happy for the great win, they still have to sort out the kick ins, Dunn nearly always plays on right side and bombs the ball down the line, to predictable top sides wait for that and set up for it, having said that wasn't it great to see Jones come on and tell them a minute and a half to go, seems we can learn something after all.

Did well in the second half. Still a work in progress, going to be some misses along the way, but the upside is enormous.

Another pearler from PF.

You don't look at what happens over 3 weeks to decide what to do with a player, you look at what happens over 3 years.

WATTS: Consecutive Good Games

TMAC: Came into Game

PICKET FENCE- how much do you want to barrack for someone else? will pay you to have an opinion elsewhere. Am blissing out on the win and read (yes your allowed to have it) opinion and it is a buzz kill.

BTW, Stevie J did a very good dive, on the replay he totally went for it when he felt the hand and the ump was sold the candy.

N.Jones - captain great captain

Dunn - stood up brilliantly

Watts - continued important role

Toumpas - quiet before subbing

Dawes - provided great contests

Viney - superb all game

Lumumba - fine rebounding game

Brayshaw - dynamic and exciting

Gawn - career best game

Tyson - looked more comfortable

Stretch - played his role

Cross - important in contests

Vince - prolific all day

McDonald - was rarely sighted

Riley - some useful touches

Neal-Bullen - can find ball

Garlett - perfect scouting game

Howe - 2 brief cameos

Jetta - didn't imbue confidence

Spencer - perfect Gawn foil

Bail - was rarely sighted

M. Jones - improved with confidence

Couple of minor things.

Bail=first time he did a job and completed it without losing concentration and letting opponent off the hook.

Spencer=played his best game and centre shutdown off opponents and not letting ball out of area was his best,also flew for marks down forward and had to be covered by geelongs spare down back,allowed others to run onto spillages.

Jack Watts=has been written many times about his momentum clangers,provided 2 yesterday which had people hanging their heads and hoping it wouldnt effect the result.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    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 star play

    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
