Dawes ? Couldnt be any worse than Pedo was yesterday. I dont think 5 changes will happen either unfortunately. Garland is finished, i didnt like the 3 year contract at the end of last season and i like it even less now, Poorest decision the list management team has made for a while.

Out Hogan ...... Needs to able to kick a min of 2-3 goals a game at the G. Let him go and get some confidence back at Casey monstering VFL defenders. That's where he got his hunger from before he started so well last year. He thinks he is an automatic selection each week. Thinks he has the club over a barrel with all the media hype over his contract . Apart from the saints game I have not seen anything this year that shows me he is worth the money that is reported he can earn. His kicking lacks penetration and before all the Jessie lovers get stuck into me, just answer this question , who  would you rather have kicking for goal in a final from 48m out on an angle to win the game for us at the G. Watts or Hogan?

This proves nothing.  Yes, watts, but he is the best kick in the team. 

Kernahan was a great FF/CHF but I would have preferred others to be having that shot.  Cloke, Richo, Neitz same.  It does not mean he aint a good footballer. But he needs to get a routine and continue with it and not change each shot.

Neal-Bullen on stand by for Vince

Lumumba on stand by for Jetta

Dunn on stand by for Pedersen

If none of the above three outs gets suspended i'd still be looking for Lumumba & Neal-Bullen to come in anyway. Probably at the expense of Hunt & Michie.

Would also like to see a fit Kent in, but hard to drop Stretch after that performance. Maybe for Harmes?

Sorry guys but both Jetts and BV are not going to be available this weekend, 100%.

I think BV will only be a week, as it was moderate contact but Jetta will get 2 i reckon.

Garland finished? he's contracted until 2018...Dunn 2017....bet list management wish they had their time over again

Garlands 3 year contract was the work of the current administration, we can only hope he came cheap. 

Im guessing he did.

This won't be popular but Grimes must be in the mix. Has done nothing wrong at Casey and was on standby for the firsts this week. ANB is a no- brainer. I think Funk and Wagner and due for a tune up at Casey,

Surely not.

Why not? Has been good at Casey, was designated emergency yesterday too wasn't he?

Aren't we passed the stage of caring what name is attached to in-form players?

Strong teams would use a game like Brisbane at the G to ease a bloke like Trengove back into AFL.

Is Hulett ready to replace Pedersen? Or Dawes' form good enough?

The players are struggling to react in that pseudo-press we are doing and the Bulldogs exploited it - so IN the players that know what they are doing in there, and OUT the rest.

I'm with you but for a different reason. Dropped mark in forward pocket (not a sin itself; everybody drops them occasionally) but then stood there flatfooted sulking, no pressure or effort while the doggies ran it out again. Needs to go back, get confidence and get some defense and repeat effort into his game.

I love his passion but his frustration kills it, doesn't get back into position after a point is kicked either.  I would not drop him yet, I hope the coaching staff know how to tame the beast, maybe music i have heard that works ;)

Are you saying this is what he feels or what he needs?

Cause i think either way its a TERRIFYING thought!

The annoying thing about our selectors at the moment is they think we can play this small back line every week. It worked against the Suns because after half time the ball hardly went down there. We knew the Dogs were are far superior side to the Suns and yet we play the same back line who struggled with the pressure. I don't know what Dunn has done to get off side but is a far superior defender than Garland. We also have been playing Frost as a forward when it was fairly obvious he is just not going to do well in that position. My team for this week would be as follows (this is if no one gets suspended which is unlikely for Bernie).

B:       Jetta           Dunn           Lumumba

HB:     Salem        TMac           Wagner

C:       Vince         Tyson          Stretch

HF:     Petracca    Pedersen    Kennedy

F:       Garlett        Hogan         Watts

R:       Gawn         Jones           Viney

Int:      Oliver         ANB      Bugg    Harmes

Outs: Michie (I like him but we can't play Salem, Wagner, Hunt and Michie in the same team as they all play similar roles and is behind those three IMO)

Garland (doesn't defend well enough and has no weapons) 

Hunt (loved his first few games but needs a rest and Lumumba can come back in if fit)

Ins: Lumumba to give Hunt a week off

Dunn to come in for Garland

ANB because he is just banging the door down

    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

    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
