Round 15 - Non MFC Games

Like how we fought back yesterday?

Meanwhile St Kilda finished the game having kicked 6 goals, 3 of which came in a 3 minute burst (i.e. 3 goals in just short of an entire game), in perfect conditions, against a side who hadn't won for a month and cruelled with injuries.

Sounds a lot like Melbourne, actually, and I guarantee you if that had been us with that performance you'd have lamented our terrible skills and inability to score.

Yup

Saints were rubbish. Played 1 good quarter

If Shiel didnt go off injured early they'd have lost by 10 goals plus

Today, Freo's aging list caught up with them.

They had 2 less days rest after last weeks game which was a heavy slog followed by a long flight to Tassie.

A younger Freo would have been a better match today so surprised Lyon didn't rest some of the older guys.

Hawks are very good but the final score was not realistic of the two team's capabilities.

Top 4 positions wide open now.

Lock in the Dorks for three in a row I say. Who or what will stop them now? Injuries, not likely, one they don't get them (not footy related at least), two they have depth to cover most positions. Their direct threats all have major deficiencies that won't cut it in finals.

AFL got to have a good look at Mitchell from Hawthorn pretty soon. Could have done some serious damage to Fyfe with another covert knee to the hip area yesterday.

Eliminated Crows best forward Walker for rest of game in previous weeks and probably these two were not the first two. Matthews even brought it up!

Reminds me a lot of the sneaky sort that used to operate in the late 50s and 60s...

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
