Recommended Posts

Is anyone elses head spinning?  Im trying to wrap my head around the awesomeness of what I just witnessed and the fact we have won 2 in a row and we arent a basket case any more and have an insane amount of talent and toughness

This may take some time to process

I fear you are right. Though how a deliberate foul act by Rance can be the same penalty as what Viney did, only the AFL and its stooges can say.

Ranges will get 1, and they can't give Viney the same so he'll probably get nothing. 

I'd be more worried aboutVince's short elbow to the head..

This is unacceptable and Paul Roo's needs to hand over the reigns NOW! How dare he ruin our records that we hold dear.... winning two on the trot is just not on.

I feel strange and don't know how to handle this situation... My dog is behaving oddly and is waiting for my normal end of weekend tourettes. Jeezus!

And Jack Viney get 3 votes for beaning Rance!

Go Dees!

Richmond fans saying he often thumps the ground in frustration... clutching at straws replay shows him looking directly at his head. What a scum bag, why the sympathy for him? I don't know Rance's history.. 

I just read that one.  Classic.

My son has noticed that Rance sometimes punches the ground when the opposition takes a mark on him. If you notice, he was not looking at Watts when he did it. Just wondering perhaps he didn't realise Watt's head was there as he slid over him. Totally out of character, that is why I suggest this even though it seems far fetched.

Rance = Rancid. Sniping reminiscent of Jimmy O'Dea on John Greening. 

 I think I need to you pull you up on that one. Rance was dumb and he will get a little time but he was not thumped behind play and put into a coma.

I'm liking the direction the game seems to be taking. A fair dose of mongrel exhibited amongst the play to go with the new game style.

If the AFL want to preserve the game, please don't sanitise it any further.

The balance is currently about right.

Happy with that.  If we can play like this all year we'll win more often than not.  The top teams will still have us, but we're right in the mix for the middle tier 

I will say I think Viney has just made a spot in the side for Petracca next week.  I can see he and Rance both going for a week. 

RUBBISH wasn't even a free kick

Too hard at the man. Too hard on the spread. We attacked with vigour from half back and we now have players capable of doing it who will only get better. They came at us multiple times sometimes due to our turnovers but we composed and bounced back each time.  Dom Tyson best game in a long time. Kent now starting to show what he can do over a game rather than cameos. The beauty is we won well and controlled the game and have much more improvement that will come with development and confidence even within is year.

Hogan with no goals but he took ten awesome marks

Hogan was great today, ran hard, chased, bought the ball to ground, stayed in the contest. 

he would be in the best handful on the ground had he kicked straighter

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
