POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 12


Demonland

Recommended Posts

Talking Footy's post match discussion entailed a 30 second discussion of "how good is Max Gawn?" and a 7 minute discussion of "how bad are Collingwood?". Watson declaring that the loss marks them being at their lowest point this season.

One day, Melbourne will get total credit for a win and the opponent won't be deemed at crisis point. One day.

Now Now Steve I think you are getting a little excited my man.

I think a few "well done boys " each match is quite sufficient.

Just an all round [censored]-hot day, old dee.

Watching the replay now and I'll tell you what has really improved. Tyson's tackling is phenomenal. He is becoming a terrific player. Really looking forward to seeing him up in Sydney next too.

When you're the editor of the Herald scum, you'll see that "dee-spair of Collingwood, essendrugand ninthmond" will far outsell printed copies of "dee-molition at the g" or "doing the M-C--DEED" 

Let them cry, let them argue about how pathetic they are. Let the media focus on GWS, or danger, or whoever it will be this week that's flagfavorite.we can just continue along, more experience on the big stage with more games into Wagner, petracca, gawn, Viney etc. We will bring the 6 minute important segment to them, in time.

I was on a flight early this morning my time when the game was on. I arrived in Cairo and when I got into the hotel I sat down and watched the reply without knowing the result.

Had an enjoyable couple of hours watching and cheering the boys on.

Was a very good performance with a good even input from just about all members of the team. a few outstanding players with Gawn, Vince, Tyson and Jones just great. I love watching Gawn play like this. Snapping goals, romping through the center and clunking marks and the best part is that he looks like he is enjoying it.

OMac, TMac and Frost looked the best I have seen them. They were helped a fair bit by the Pies selectors.

Petracca did a few things today that really had my eyes widening with wonder. He is going to have a huge impact on this club.

Another win would not surprise next week.

Anyone got footage of Kennedy being coathangered by #40 (which was called "play on" by umpire Nicholls)? I spent the whole first quarter watching through red mist after that. I want to see if it was as bad as it looked.

Was bloody awesome mate. Waved my flag and sung the song three times, and stayed until the boys went in. Probably won't do any of those things ever again, but felt the need for finally breaking the duck!

We look to have settled our key backs for the next eight to ten years hopefully with the two McDonalds and Frost.

 

 

It would help if we signed Big Mc soon then.

Not sure if it's been specifically mentioned, but how good was Petracca's goal in the second term?  The pick up, spin, push off and then goal was sublime.  His sure hands at both ground level and in the air, as well as his explosiveness and ability to quickly change direction in a pack make him such an exciting prospect.  Really looking forward to his second half of the year.

And just quietly, I'm confident we can push the Swans all the way this Sunday as well.  With a few players going down and their confidence taking a hit they are ripe for the picking.  Could it be our turning point heading into the bye?

Who got injured for the Swans?

It was bad!  Its rare for Roos to be really animated but he all but flew from his seat when it was called 'play on' with no free kick.

Haven't seen a replay...we probably won't - it might upset Nathan or Eddie:o.

It gives me the shits. Sounds like a library almost every week. I feel like I'm the only one out there shouting every week.

Don't know what games you guys are at. The members go nuts. I've heard opposition fans say "there's not many of them but they're loud".

    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.

    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
