I thought Spencer and Smith offered more than Melksham and Hogan.

6. Oliver - this guy.  If he's not already the best player I've ever seen at the MFC, he's not far off.  Only gets pinged for throws because the poor mere mortal umps can't see how fast his hands go.  

5. Hibberd - looked good as soon as he appeared in play.  Can kick and is tough.  Set the bar pretty bloody high in his first game.

4.  Hunt

3.  Watts

2.  Petracca - great effort when clearly lame.

600 - Hibberd. Did it all. Kicked it alot and creative. Marked it. Tackled. Nice goal.

5- Watts. Courageous. One bad mistake but keep us in the game. Great 2nd efforts. More dangerous as a fwd. 

4- Jetta. Solid. Good smart defending

3- Hunt. Run run run. Needs to fix disposals... but great goal

2- Frost. Tried and defended all night.

1- Oliver. Accumulated the footy. 15 handballs to no one though. Did one special clearance to Garlett.

 

-5 jkh... delist now. small and fumbled.

-4 vince...now soft. Needs to get forward. 

-3 tyson... poor disposal. ineffective handball. accumulates but not damaging

Anyone comparing Pederson's contribution to Dawes just isn't paying attention!

So true.  Contests, marks, rucks.

Not afraid of body contact? Do you remember the first game he played for us against Port Adelaide??? 

He may be able to do these things but on the training track doesn't count 

So is he forever marked for one incident?

A bit like FOB in the 88 GF? And he had a stellar career before and after

6. Hibberd: Provided exactly what we thought he would. Aggression competitiveness and a booming left boot. 

5. Oliver: 32 disposals at 75% efficiency along with seven tackles. Enough said.

4. Hunt: Provided his usual dash. Threatened to really break the game open.

3. Watts: His athleticism in the ruck actually gave us an edge in the third quarter. Understandably ran out of gas in the last.

2. Jetta: Typical Jetta game. Did his job in the back 50 on the Richmond smalls who had little to no say in the result of the game. I know it's early, but happy 100th next week Nev!

1. Frost: Some outstanding efforts. Much prefer him to OMac.

    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

    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
