N.Jones - prolific captain's game

Vince - brain fades cruelled

Hogan - rarely imposed himself

Watts - always looked dangerous

Petracca - some awesome plays

Dawes - needed more involvement

Viney - never died wondering

Brayshaw - some crucial errors

Gawn - outstanding all game

Tyson - slow to offload

Stretch - provided some run

Kent - dangerous and valuable

Frost - career best game

T.McDonald - horrible under pressure

O.McDonald - never imbued confidence

Hunt - is obviously tiring

Neal-Bullen - was rarely sighted

Garlett - took his chances

Jetta - slow to react

Wagner - was rarely sighted

Nice to see some posters grudgingly acknowledging the improvement in Matt Jones and what he brings to the team.

He'll be ok ? Brayshaw will be a frigging super duper star.

Hunt has had a better year than Petracca, Oliver or Brayshaw. Nobody could have predicted that. He is not tiring just gaining experience.

Agree except for Tyson.  Glad to see recognition for the mistakes from o.mcd and t.mcd.

Best 6 were N Jones, Gawn, Frost, Kent, Watts and Tyson.

Viney: Needs to use right side or Get ris of it quicker.

Brayshaw : awareness improvement/shows a lot of class at times

Petracca : Touch of class

Kent : Great run

Gawn : Terrific

Watts : Massive improvement in committment/Great team game

TMac/Jetta: Without hime we would have lost by 10 goals. End of Argument !!!!

Wagner/Omac/Hunt/ANB/Petracca/Brayshaw/Frost/Harmes/Stretch/Hogan  : all first or second year players

Nathan J : Great bounce back from last week

Whole Team : 100 minute effort / well done

Every single week you find a way to pot Tyson. It's tiring. 

'Joeboy's' not a Tyson fan, just factor that into the "3 Word Analysis"...

I'm a Tyson fan and a fan of thread, a must read after every game.

Frost - turned the corner

I wasn't sold on him at the start of the year. But there is an x factor about him even I can't deny. Today was a leap forward for him. He is a must start for the rest of the season so we can see what he can develop into.

Hunt - starting to fade ... lucky to be kept in the side. If Salem was fit, Hunt would be omitted.

You have to be joking ....what bloody game were you watching ....i saw it with some pies supporters and they were raving about him ....just so harsh

Jetta - good game  6

t.mcd - good but crucial mistakes were costly 5

wagner - ok. turnovers costly.5

Frost - very good. pace and backed himself.8

o.mcd - not even close to AFL standard. Disposal a worry. Physically gets pushed aside.2

vince - skilled. big heart. got in but a few undisciplined free kicks. 6

M. Jones - good run. One of his better games. 7

Viney - the warrior. needs to learn to kick on his right foot. 6

Hunt - fading. conditions not suited. 4

Stretch - good run again. must use him more and go forward. 6

Kent - good. but I want him to develop so much more and kick 4-5 goals. 6

Watts - another strong game. Most improved award for 2016.  (if any he had kivked the goal in the last quarter) 8

Petracca - yes. so much talent. 6

Garlett - took his opportunities. 5

Hogan - disappointing again.  I expect more. Potential but not engaged.3

Harmes - in and out. 5.

ANB - Needs another week.4

Dawes - marking time. 3

Gawn - another good game. Might sneak a Brownlow vote. Deliberate handball out in 4th was disappointing.

Tyson - loves the conditions. Prolific and won the midfield. 8

N.Jones - best on ground. 9

Brayshaw - pass score 5.

should be pointed out that brashaw only has 58% game time for 20 possessions, so he's certainly finding the ball, but not always capitalising on his disposals. bad conditions and being a little rusty didn't help. need to give him more time and he'll be ok

He'll be ok ?

Brayshaw will be a frigging super duper star.

    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.
