Rance just gave away a 50 for smacking a bloke in the head after he'd already marked it. He might be the biggest dog in the AFL. Such a scumbag!

He just poked a guy in the eye as well. He's one of the dirtiest players of the modern era but no one ever says a bad word about him. Very frustrating!

Doggies are all over them now and probably will win. Might finally get a tip right for the weekend!

Not only that, the bloke is seriously in love with himself. Narcissist.

Not nearly as much as Brooocce is.

You must have been a defender and you may be right about 12 wins for the eight. This year is tight.

That last decision was a total joke. The player touched the ball as he was tackled. It was never in control

12 wins could well be Gold this year

Richmond would have lost three straight if we weren't two men down against them.

They are rubbish and wont play finals.

We still should have beaten them. We certainly outplayed them.

Deliberate out of bounds is an absolute joke

Agree on that last one. It was a fumble. At first I thought he threw it out but why would he deliberately throw it out when his team needs a goal. Makes the loss more funnier. The tigs have dropped down to 6th now. WC have found themselves in the top 4. God knows how. 

But I think the talking point is Geelong and there loss to Gold Coast. That was a very good win by them. 25 points. Wow. 

This is why tomorrows game is so important. We keep in touch with those teams.

My compliments to Port, quietly going about collecting a new improved thugs backline with their tilt towards this year's Flag

I said that last night. I think they will be one of the teams to be competing for eight spot. Geelong have been exposed as well but will make the eight. The current 6 teams outside the 8 will all be in or  within striking distance at round 20.

How does a team get paid deliberate against them when they have 40 secs to go, its in their forward line and theyre down by 4 pts?

Because he deliberately put the ball out to force a reset in the forward line.

Looked pretty clear on first viewing to me.

Possibly, but I thought it was a fumble..

Was definitely deliberate, not even debatable.

Can imagine the Tiger fans melting down over it though. Warms my heart.

I had a good laugh hearing Hardwick in his press conference ticking off other 'top 8' teams they've defeated as proof they aren't pretenders, including us. What absolute [censored] -- he knows they only won against us because we were two down on rotations and got supremely lucky with injuries. They are finally getting found out and it's fantastic.

It's not as if they got absolutely pants tonight.

However, I do share your enthusiasm.

It was still immensely disrespectful towards us. We win that Anzac Eve match comfortably without those injuries in Q1, no question.

Dogs absolutely smashed them in general play for 3 quarters, just couldn't put it on the board.

And whoever thought up that ridiculous tactic of playing Lin Jong in the ruck should be put in stocks outside Footscray Market and pelted with rotten fruit and veggies the whole week.

Richmond play a bludger's game - super-flood their defence, then attack via breakaways. Their fans call it "rope-a-dope" because it relies heavily on the other side playing stupid and not thinking it through. It's the way you play when you got nothin'. Once they get worked out, like Port did in 2014 (?), they'll reach their true level.

As a complete side note after reading the Carlton/Collingwood match report, I was pondering the etymology of the nickname 'Blue Baggers'. 

A google search came up with: 

noun

  • a person who is so ugly that one would have to put a bag over their head (so as to hide their face) before considering having intercourse with them. See also double-bagger.
    That girl I met at the club was a total bagger.
 
 
Can anyone shed further light on this important matter?

Cats and Tigers both lost two straight.

We are coming for a spot in the eight, nobody is safe.

It was only a matter of time. Both teams are pretenders. Be nice if Adelaide lose two straight too. :P

    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.

    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
