The Dons are organising a massive pre-game programme for this match . It will "represent their past, their present and their future" and they want this moment to stay with their supporter for the rest of their lives.  I can only hope that every Melb supporter turns up to the "G" that day , our home ground & the spiritual home of "clean " football, and supports our team in voice and numbers. A win is an absolute necessity!!

We have an opportunity to annihilate one of our rivals at the G. Who wouldn't want to be there to witness that?

Home game, Away game... WTF is wrong with people? It's at the bloody G.. What the hell is this comment???? You would not go to a game to support your footy side coz a few bucks of your ent

I'll be there - louder and more obnoxious than usual, and I will be handing out plenty of free advice to all Essendon supporters within earshot.

I'm worried about this game. Massive walk to the G, many past players attending. A big build up for then in their first home game,.

I hope they get smacked round 1 and we follow up with round 2 but I'm nervous about it

Steve, perhaps I have a simplistic view but I have a problem with drug cheats in sport. The club that organised a PED program that led to 34 players being banned have not yet been punished. I have few options, I do not buy their sponsors products and do not go to their games.

I go every week home or away in Melb, as AFL Membership gets me into away games without giving a penny to the home team, it's going to be a cringe-inducing sycophantic love in that's going to be hard to stomach.


Can we organise for all Dees fans at the game to turn their backs when the MC instructs all the Essendrug drones to applaud their drug cheats as a form of protest?

My simplistic response is that there won't be any guilty players at this game so you can attend knowing that you'll be supporting clean players.

Just trying to help you find a way to get there, ManDee.

As mentioned already, this is a replacement home game, so anyone with an 11 game membership can get in.

 

Edit - as long as someone at the MCG remembers to press the magic 'button'. Took a while to get in for the first of our replacement games last season.

OD, there's something about your confidence that makes me feel more optimistic about the season ahead than I was a few weeks ago. I sure hope that you're right.

For the first time in a decade we have a reasonable list. Baring a bad run with injuries our best 25  now have the skill level needed to compete with most teams.

I believe we are a better side than Essendon and we should win.

I wonder if they will use this occasion as an opportunity to rehabilitate Hird? First thing that came on my mind.

We should recreate the "hird" moment for them...Who can we get to line up whom ??   :rolleyes:

    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.
