Jones - outstanding all game

Vince - provided the class

Hogan - wasn't really needed

Viney - outstanding until concussed

Gawn - dominated the ground

Tyson - prolific but wasteful

Oliver - genius in close

Stretch - used speed well

Kent - some classy cameos

Garland - far from convincing

Pedersen - successfully played role

Michie - neat but tentative 

McDonald - better second half

Hunt - attacking defensive weapon

Bugg - brilliant first half

Kennedy - better second half

Garlett - always a presence

Jetta - brave and focused

Wagner - prolific but uncertain

Harmes - Rising Star nominee

Watts - not his best 

Petracca - exciting and clean

i reckon Pedo was one of our best, consistently presented himself up forward and didn't disgrace himself in the ruck either. Really settling into his role which will only make it harder for Dawes to get back in.

Crunched a lot of packs and bodies and our leading scorer.

Gawn- would turn for 

If he isn't considered for AA then the league is a sham.

 

The league is a sham. But wholly agree - I'd take Gawn in front of Goldie if I had the choice

No Watts?

Sacrificed game.

Brown bought it up in the last and they showed footage in game of him leading his player away so others could lead into the space. 

Watts has finally... FINALLY got to the point where he's backing his own footy smarts. 

If this is the season he arrived I'm looking forward to him building  upon it.

Seems to take the lumbering Hulk a whiles to get going , then he's fine. 

Tommy still needs to watch more Eastwood films :rolleyes:

Garlo....utterly replaceable now.

Oliver... Wow...

Quite a few need more consistency. They're in and out of awareness.

Starting to like Kennedy.

If this year is about "penny dropping" , next season could be quite good

As in "Do you feel lucky, Punk?", I presume, rather than say `The Bridges of Madison County' ...:lol::)

No Watts because he was nowhere to be seen! I saw that footage, yes one good play, but he had an off day. Hopefully he'll lift for the doggies!

Watts played his role - took defenders away leaving space.  Not everyone can kick a bagful in a massacre.

Jesse did much the same, with two defenders.

I though Hogan was pretty good. Didn't impact the scoreboard like last week but contested well all night.

Stats wont show his contribution but his bullocking work and pressure around the ground was very good for a man who was out numbered all night

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players.  Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin Boeing 737 flight to Perth for this upcoming team-bonding, fun-filled, weekend getaway.   This cross-continent Round 4 clash at Fremantle Oval starting at 2:05pm AEST promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies slight favourite.     If we lose, finals will be remoter than Rottnest Island and the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday, an omen.

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
