6: hogan - he was clearly the difference btw the two sides, and it's scary to think how ordinary we would be without him

5: gawn - went up against two genuine ruckman and more than held his own, and his around-the-ground game is improving weekly

4: howe - i have maintained that he's a natural defender and he absolutely nailed that role today, intercepting and sparking rebounds

3: cross - that he's so positively ancient and still able to influence the play the way he does says a lot about his quality; sign up for 2016

2: viney - aother excellent run-with role where he was able to not just curtail his opponent but get the pill too; remains me so much of kane cornes in that respect

1: garlett - provided great defensive pressure and also contributed to the scoreboard - just needs to nail the set shot doddles!

6 - Anyone that was lucky enough not to watch that game.

5 - Hogan. Nudges out Max because he goes against team rules and kicks goals.

4 - Gawn. Love him.

3 - Viney. Watching the intensity top teams play at, Viney for me is the only one that looks like he always plays at that level. He's really smashed this season.

2 - Cross. Challenging Ingerson for my favourite player we've recruited from another club.

1 - Howe. I don't want to, but he was good. Should try doing it twice in a row.

6 - Cross (After his first shocker for us last week, you knew he'd come out firing)

5 Gawn (Our best player after half-time but wasn't a major factor in the first half when we won it)

4 Hoges (Seemed to enjoy a weaker opponent this week, but still a tad untidy)

3 Jetta (I really loved his intensity and run this week and that tackle on Hanley in the goalsquare was huge).

2 Viney (It's great turning up at a game and knowing we won't be whimping out. Rockliff had 17 tackles and probably 10 were trying to stop Jack).

1 Howe (Probably rough given he had 11 marks. A very good 6th best player).

Honorary mentions: Dawes (yes, he took six marks) and Vandenberg (Another game where you can't believe this guy is a first-year player).

dc, I was trying to answer your question as to who could be bothered doing the subtraction. It seemed to me that you had worked out how to do it and therefore probably actually done it...hence, I thought you could do the exercise for all of us. I was actually going to suggest you were being selfish having got that far and not posted the weekly result for us.

    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.
