They were 3 ordinary games Dazzle, take the emotion out of it, neither Grimes or Trengove in the team is a good thing. Roos is there every training session, he knows what they can and can't do, Roos i

Of the five ins, who do u think will replace Wagner and Oliver?

I think Grimes is a certain inclusion, and then take your pick of Harmes and M. Jones for Oliver.  I don't think Michie or Garlett have done enough to get the call up as yet.

Oliver omitted is crazy.

Absoluteley agree, In other newsI I notice Jarryd Lyons is named in Adelaide's team. A very good onballer,  I think he is the  son of One time Melbourne player, Marty Lyons!! 

If so, another who pased through the cracks! Doh!!

Ah No I am certainly popular with my clientele! 

I know you want me to guess Picket. Perhaps I'll eliminate a couple. I'd be stunned if you taught English in any capacity. That's out. You've also said that you're popular with your clientele. On that basis I've ruled out human beings. I'm left with greyhound trainer.

I wouldn't worry too much about Oli Picket he'll be right. His tank has been a problem all year, would prefer to see him run  out some games in the VFL before he gets back in.

Would prefer to see Harmes and M.Jones get a run before Grimes and Michie and I doubt that Garlett has done enough to get back in the side.

Popular with clientele hey! Does this involve night shifts?

Last time Bernie did a glorious job of roughing up Dangerfield and taking him out of the game while having a cracking, attacking game himself.  This time Sloane is the dangerman.  Bernie or Bugg to take him out for us to have a chance!

Crows forward 6 look downright scary!  Our on-ballers need to work super hard defensively to stop the ball getting into Crows forward half - starve them of opportunities or we will be toast!

100% spot on LH. This is where the game will be won or lost - the defensive effort and work rate of our midfield. The game against St. Kilda was a classic example.

Also, one-on-one, the Crows forward personnel are a class above our developing defenders. If our midfield does not work super hard, it could be a horrible result.  Add Bugg to Sloane, and ensure our half forwards are awake and aware of the drive the Crows get from half back and we should match it with them.

From that summary this could go either horribly wrong or right Maldon! There goes my peaceful nights sleep (or two!)

    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.
