Hope we kick up a stink about playing our home game at St Kildas HOME GROUND. Ffs 

Stop making excuses. We haven't brought the required work rate and we've been unclean with our ball handling and decision making all game.

Once again we can't live up to the flucking hype.  No doubt pencilled in a win just like Essendon.

Too many on here drink their own bath water and think we are better than we are.  

We needed fresh legs on a short week but no. 

We we needed to change and man up on Reiwoldt but no. 

We needed a sweeper to stop their loose man up forwarding every single 50 entry but no. 

Poor play and poor coaching and selecting.

This is a massive test for us. 5 day break, ground we don't like against an opponent who knows they can beat us. Will our players respond? Everything I know about this club says they won't. Is this "New Melbourne" real, or just a mirage. 

Yeah...

Well I've freed myself of an expectation of a win, which is a relief. Hopefully we can at least restore a little bit of respect. 

What a bitter disappointment. 

Did you free yourself midway through the second or at the start of the third?

Terrible ground.

Terrible ticketing

same f. Wittery from the umpires.

paul Roos on 1.5mill as I watch Riewoldt run rampant as H and Tmac point at each other.

Dunn is selfish,useless ,fat and finished.

Reiwoldt again.FMD

our backs are makeshift,reactive and have no aerial skill.

I keep falling for it again and again and again.. The Dee's make us all look stupid with these efforts. No wonder we get so fired up.

Going to get drunk.

Beat you. Started at 1/2 time

Two things stand out,

1.  Leg speed.   Keep thinking of lethal Mathews after the bombers game saying any side with good leg speed would beat or trouble Dee's.

2. Coaching.   Everyone could see 3rd quarter coming, but nothing changed after half time -  look clueless to clog up and defend saints fwd line,

We are playing st kilda, not Hawthorn, it's a disgraceful performance, not even competitive

St. Kilda would have beaten Hawthorn but for a disgraceful incorrect disposal decision at the end of the game.

Every  team, even Essendon and Carlton have to be taken as seriously as Vladimir Putin

    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
