Dave Misson on the MFC website has basically said the AFL article is rubbish - Garlett will 'absolutely, definitely play on Sunday."

A bit of good news this week is nice for a change.

What seemed strange about Misson's statement was that he basically says Jeffy will definitely play and implied he'll play even if he doesn't train on Friday. I would have thought that wouldn't be the greatest preparation. Then again, I'm no expert...

Garlett must have wanted to get inside out of the rain !    If so,  maybe they should drop him,  if he didn't like the wet weather ! 

I hope I'm wrong,   & this is not a sign of laziness & cockiness in him.

What the Fk?

Do you seriously proof read before you post rubbish like FMD. And the fact is you have pot shot a player for no particular reason.

Idiot

ahh, g'day Idiot.

 

Tthe guy just turned his ankle, It  was retaped out on the paddock & then immediately sent for a straight-line run to test,  and after only 20mtrs he said its too sore.  I have to go inside.

 

...  now Misson says he's a definite starter.

 

I said I hope he is not getting lazy/soft already,  after his iffy time with the Blues.  and I said I hope I'm wrong.

You are wrong and a simpleton. Its quite obvious he was in a fair bit of pain and needed attention on. Its not laziness or soft its a fact.

To say he should be dropped because he might have faked is quite bizzare and one im not surprised it came out of your mouth.

FFS..

just putting a left field possibility out there,  just in case there is rot setting in..

 

We all around the club,  the coaches & us supporters in the social media,  have all got too far ahead  of ourselves, & last match this showed itself in our footy.

 

Today,  it sounds like jeffy couldn't get inside quick enough,  & all & sundry said,  'a bad roll of ankle'.   Now,  hours later our chief fitness man says all's clear,  100%.

I would be bustin' to stay on the park to get a full session in,  just as Trenners would.

 

.....  so all in all,  I think we should be guarded with jeffy,  just to keep him on his toes.  I think some observer said he played a good 15minutes last week.   leopards & spots, & all that.

 

It always concerns me when supporters start getting too far ahead, & the players here & feel this optimism during the course of they're week, out & about.  It does effect them.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
