24 posts and not one person calling for Melksham to be dropped.  Its a miracle.

There's no one to bring in for Melksham. Possibly when Wagner is fit, Melksham will be in trouble.

This is one of the most staggering paragraphs I've ever seen on Demonland, and that's saying something....

I may have misheard but I got the impression from Jack Watt's post match interview that Hogan would be back next week

Having just been through what Hogan’s been through, I was very ready to get back to my normal routine as soon as I could. Not everyone’s the same though, and I suspect Hoges might have a bit of trouble getting up.

Hogan will play.

He's a pro and will be looking to get back into it. Understandable if he needs another week but would be surprised if he doesn't play.

Why would you be surprised if he don't ?

A poor comment.

Hogan should take as much time as possible. Forget football and let him be with his family as much as possible.

You've misread my comment. I said it was understandable if he took another week. But knowing him I would be surprised if he didn't play.  Me being surprised would be entirely based on my own interpretation of his own character. I'd be surprised, but not disappointed bevause I'd understand.

All will depend on if Hogan wishes to play, but I'll go with him not playing.

Out: JKH, Bugg

In: Trengove, Weideman 

No no no no.

Make Weid earn it.

Only change should be Hogan if his is ready.

This is outrageous I thought Bugg did some fantastic work today and I reackon we are a better team with his no nonsenec approach in it 

Trengove , Look I dont care how many touches he gets and a very substandard VFL! The game has passed him by, he is too slow!

Two Changes

In Hogan, White

Out Neal Bullen, jkh 

Weeds needs to build some confidence for a week or two kicking a few goals at Casey. Another question , why call it Casey why not Cranbourne coz after all thats where it is!!?

Maybe Jack should try to give Jess a run for her money. She ran a 2.26 in London last weekend!

To be honest I think it's pointless to suggest hogan will play until we hear that he will, I wouldn't be surprised if he misses a few weeks yet.

Who knows?  Perhaps his family will encourage him to get back asap "to honour dad's memory", or maybe he and they will need more time.  Only he can tell.

I haven't seen today's game -- bearing in mind team balance, who would go out for him on today's performances?

I get the call for JKH to be out but you can see he's unpredictable with the footy, plays his role and is hard at it. It make sense the coaches are trying to give him time to hit his straps. I wouldn't complain if Stretch replaced him though. Other than that, Jesse can come in for whoever if, and only if he's ready.

Tyson was a bit better this week as was Jake the Shake.

Clarry needs a break. Only 33 possessions today. Dropping off the pace. Seems a bit tired.

    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.
