What? Did Sheedy say he is expecting 75,000-95,000 for the Melbourne v Essendon game?

Sheedy is a freak show from the past.  

For all Dees fans going - this is our time not the drug cheats.  We must not be intimidated by this mob in any fashion whatsoever, just let them make fools of themselves which they will.  I will be turning my back when it comes to any celebrations they conduct.

the MFC must not be embarrassed by this mob!!!!!!

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

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.

This has to be seen as an awesome opportunity for 'US' - not them. That's the way we need to look at it - it's all about perspective.

They'll put in all the money and effort to create the fanfare about this match - which I'm sure will get some decent media coverage post match with regards to how it pans out and what the reception was. We need to take the opportunity to make sure the story ends with 'proceedings didn't go to plan for Essendon with Melbourne 'injecting' further pain with a 80+ point thrashing...'

Watching Jamar he looks completely unfit and way past it.

Gawn is going to have a field day.

As much as I respected Jamar and am not watching the match, this quote from the AFL site sounds eerily familiar:

Quote

Essendon ruckmen have won 17 of 55 ruck contests, yet not one has gone to the advantage of a teammate.

Just listened to the 3AW interview with the Essendon CEO. The arrogance, the lack of accepting responsibility, is mind-blowing. It is all still 'something that happened to us' in their mind.

I think this is the most I've ever wanted the Melbourne Football Club to go out an absolutely crush an opponent.

Normally I feel a little sympathy for supporters of clubs which are getting smashed, but honestly, as an Essendon supporter if you turn up to support this perversion then you deserve to go home miserable.

Unfair. 

At his AA peak he and Moloney had the highest tap/possession percentage in the league.

Confidence jnr.

you can put it in the bank we will win the first two.

They can march up and down till they are blue in the face will make no difference to the result.

I think you are mistaken.

The MFC team this year will be very different and the EFC team will be vastly different to last year.

They won last year because Danniher had a one in five year game.

Won't happen this year.

Forget the past we are about to create a new future.

Confidence Buzzy

Who are you and what have you done with Old Dee? :lol::)

the Aliens have abducted him, sadly...  or he's on the MACA.  whichever came first?

seriously 'OD',  IMO is a very good judge of players & team lists.   I think he now sees our list as one worth being optimistic over.

I agree as well, as I think most do.   we can naturally see it.. so the big Question remains, why oh why, do we insist on being so optimistic & loyal when we have craap lists.  which then delays any repairs.

we have people in charge finally,,,   who know footy,  & are seriously fixing this club.  The key now is to keep improving but what worries me is wen Roos & PJ have left the building.

Beaten today:  3.6.24 to Cats 17.9.111

A thrashing by WCE in WA for their last NAB

Big loss to GCS in Qld - round 1

Then hope it buckets down rain for our round 2 game - only the die hard efc supporters will want to walk to the MCG and go to the game...

...and Sheedy's great rally turns into a fizzer!

I desperately want us to win but I also desperately want Sheedy et al to have egg on their smug faces...may their supporters stay home!

A celebration of being Essendon almost

That's why I said I respected him.  But since those halcyon days, it is true that his hitouts rarely did us much good.

Jamars peak was a long tome ago...

it is not there any more...

It was a long time ago.

And it was for one year.

Like many of our past and even present players, extremes in form fluctuation seems to be the norm.

Which is why Nathan Jones is the only member of the 'past' who should hold his head high. 

The only one of any substance.

Everyone said that last year after the Saints walloped them by 100 points. We had the same comments about how it'd be a cakewalk for us, while a few posters called for caution, correctly labeling the game a danger game (the Carlton match a few rounds later, too).

I don't think the MFC has earned the right to pencil in W's for any match this year. 2015 proved we're still the kings of losing the "shoe-in" matches.

Let's hope that habit gets eradicated this season. I'm quietly confident but the proof will be in the pudding.

I'll be there for this one and by god I hope we win and if/when given the opportunity we put our foot on their throats.  That 2013 game of 148 points must burn those who played that night as much as it does me.  James Kelly arrogantly yawning during the song at the end of a loss to the Cats in 08 or 09 is another reason why I want to hurt them bad

Cant believe the Druggos have invited James Tird to their drug pride march in Round 2

Actually no, I can believe it. 

It's very "Essendon". Their arrogance knows no bounds. I hope we absolutely destroy them by 100 points.

Surely there are not any on here anymore who seriously think we cannot beat  essendrug?

I think we could almost find a way to lose.

Sorry, but I'm still numb from all the shock loses of the past to be as confident as many posters on here.

I don't care about us flogging them, I'd be happy just to win it.

Can I suggest if not mentioned before that when the essendrug faithful stand and applaud we turn in the opposite direction and put our arms and hands across our chests in defiance of this cheating mongrel club!

    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.
