6 - Viney - tackled, got ball, did his thing. 

5 - Tyson - Reslly starting to click into gear. 32 is a big return from him. 

4 - Jetta - just is a rock even though he's tiny. 

3 - McDonald - 11 marks 25 touches. His 1%er numbers up again and as much as we get stuck into him, he is still one of the best in the league. Needs help though. 

2 - Stretch - best game for the club. Really liked his endevour and went from boarder line 22 to important in the space of one game. 

1 - Watts - terrible first half and then really got involved in the 2nd. His passes to Hogan are insane.

Anybody giving Hogan votes should remember that a full-forward's job is to kick goals.

Hogan? Really? 

6. Viney - our best and a tackling machine 

5. Tyson - one of his better games

4. Jetta - shining light in defence 

3. Watts - probably our best forward and second half was huge (apart from the dropped mark)

2. Kennedy - did a few nice things

1. Stretch - Good on the wing

apologies to Tmac, thought he was pretty solid and clunked a few grabs.

6 Jetta

now struggling...

Kennedy kicked 2 goals but was ineffective

Watts lacked any contest in the first half

Tommy Mcd dropped some crucial marks and failed to spoil twice that resulted in Bulldogs goals. Four Bulldogs goals were from his mistakes

True, but five contested marks and three goal assists in my eyes is better than uncontested stats when the game is over like those from Watts.

6 - Viney - Tried his guts out all day and 16 tackles cannot be argued against

5 - Jetta - Little General in the backline and doesn't shirk any contest 

4 - Tyson - Was everywhere and is starting to build some real momentum

3 - Kennedy - Chases, harasses and just generally tries his guts out

2 - McDonald - Has brain fades each game but imagine the score without him today?

1 - Watts - Worked his way into it and should teach Hogan how to kick

Stiff to miss out were... 

Stretch - Just needs more awareness and should cement a 22 spot

Petracca - Tried really hard but still adjusting to how quickly the opposition "close in" on you at the highest level

Gawn - Taps galore but looks like he may need a rest... but without much in reserve will just have to suck it up and keep going!

Jones - Is that bloody good that even an average game doesn't cut the mustard for votes

    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.
