Richmond beat Sydney. Richmond beat Fremantle. Richmond beat Hawthorn. Melbourne beat Richmond. That means Melbourne is the best. /Half-life 3 confirmed.

Frawley adds an interesting dimension to Hawthorn. In a team full of beautiful kicks, Frawley brings the 'hospital ball' into their game. I just might work. Did then.

This game just shows how important pressure is. The amazing thing with pressure is it requires no skill, it's just if your players can be bothered or not.

i'd bet ryan griffin wouldn't be feeling too flash these days

He was a great player for them, one of the best mids in the comp, but one player doesn't make a team... the Cats won a flag the year after Ablett left, and we know how good he is

Thats why if we lose guys like Frawley and Howe it really matters little, they are easily replaceable

Thats the great thing about Aussie Rules its a true team sport

Geez the Dogs have recruited to absolute perfection in the last 4 drafts. The only question mark would have to be Boyd but plenty of time for that to play out.

Gee whiz, Wines and Stringer.. two players it's so bittersweet to watch.

Jed Lamb just completely burnt his teammate for a certain goal then missed in one of the most selfish plays you'll ever see.

Saw that and even I was ropeable (and I can't stand the Giants). Who was the player he burnt? Would love to be a fly on the wall when they come face to face.

Not sure, pure guess was it was Whitfield but I'm probably wrong.

Whoever it was and Leon Cameron might want to confront young Jed in the locker rooms with socks filled with soap...

You decide to burn a teammate? Don't miss the goal.

Definitely won't go over well with the coaches or teammates.

"OLLIE Wines' season could be over after dislocating his shoulder against St Kilda on Sunday".

Such a shame. He is an opposition player I really enjoy watching.

Hope he is back sooner rather than later.

"Mark what do I say after a loss like that...

Well it is quiet easy James, I didn't see that coming."

Ps I love how when it is going well it is all I and me with Hird but when it turns to treacle in his fingers it becomes we. Take responsibility for farks sake jimbo.

Would you rather be Carlton, Essendon or dead?

I can't believe we lost to [censored] Essendon.

I also can't believe with as bad as we've been at times, there's 5 teams worse than us.

At least if you're dead you might have some chance of an afterlife.

    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
