Buggy surely gone for 6+ stupid act and might not get a call up again this year. 

6? No way, Mills not even knocked out. 2 about right.

We haven't even put the key in the ignition. There's bad football, there's not trying, and then there's pacing.  We are pacing ourselves. We are confident in our defense and we should be. Every shot they had was on an angle except for that last one. Once we kick into second gear as we did in the second half of that quarter, we kick goals. They might shoot ahead but we'll come back. We are well drilled and smart. That was a great contest and we deserve to be in front imo.

Why do we always start so bad? At least we are winning and know we finish well. Trac is just magic. Wagner and white nervous I guess. Bugg gone for 5 weeks but Garlett in next week so all good. Frost makes be uneasy but tough game.

Like last week we weren't the best team in the first quarter but with some luck we rode the storm and somehow find ourselves with a handy little lead but we have to start showing some composure. So offer handballs are getting us into trouble and we're choosing the wrong options or not hitting them with kicks. No Salem on the half back line is hurting there. 

But last week we settled and I'm back us to be able to do it again. 

But not to harp on again but I'm so [censored] off with Bugg right now I almost want him to be forced to sit out the rest of the match. Dog, weak as [censored] act by him, whenever he is available for selection again I want him to be be forced to play a further 3 good matches in the VFL before coming into the seniors. He's not automatic best 22, and that was assault, plain and simple.

Meh.  He'll do his time and that will be his punishment.  Not angry at him at all, stuff like that happens.

One thing we really need to do to stay in the game is to get our pressure up across half forward.  2 or 3 times this term we've allowed them to run it out too easily, rather than put some pressure on them and keep it down there to give our backline a rest.  Swans will kick straight eventually.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    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
