GAMEDAY - Round 15



Recommended Posts

We have excuses, but we've been absolutely found out tonight by Sydney. This is a very even season, so we can't afford to get blown away here. Our percentage just can't take it. Goodwin needs to lock them down.

Wagner has been a great replacement for Salem. Apart from missing every single kick Salem would've hit. 

Melksham will never play in a winning final. Should never be picked for a final either. 

Positives: Viney.

What did Bugg do and how many weeks is he out for?

Punched mills in the face, will get 5 minimum but probably more, he's out of the game with a very swollen eye

We will win this.

Getting murdered at the contest - I can't see that being allowed to continue to happen. Goodwin knows how to reset the side at half time. Despite the fact that we've hardly had the ball, they haven't buried us.

let's face it

our bottom four have never been any good

take out five of our top ten and play a team that is on a roll .... it will not be pretty

Let's hope the percentage doesn't take too big a hit and we can move onto Carlton who will see us a wounded animal

We are paying the price of not picking a Kent or Kennedy.

White and Wagner are just spuds.

Argh..

And Jake Melksham can spend the rest of the year in the VFL and learn how to get a clean ball.

What a disgrace.

I hope he never plays for Melbourne again.

It was a disgrace. Only slight thing in Bugg's favour was Mills slight drop of the knee. 

Edit: scrap that^ looks like he was already in that stance when Bugg threw the punch. Just absolutely moronic.

They need to get the best players back in their natural positions. T-Mac & Hunt back. And we're getting killed around the packs. They've tried to put Swans off by putting players in unexpected positions, but it's messed us up more than them.

I agree. Thank Christ the team does not give up as quick as the supporters.

Both Wagner and White have been pathetic. Missing tackles on players who literally stood still and kicking straight to the opposition. 

Midfield getting slaughtered. Can't see us winning this one unless Goodwin pulls some magic. Should be 60-70 points down now so we're lucky we've still got a shot at this!

They are saying on the radio that Sam Frost may have done his hamstring.

If true Misson needs to be looked at. Has players dropping left right and centre to soft tissue injuries.

Can still see us winning from here. This stoppage discrepancy can't continue. But skills and decision making must improve. Feels like watching the melbourne of old a bit.

Never rated Wagner or Ehite and they are clearly not up to it. Probably good for a dozen turnovers between them so far.

I feel like we haven't even left second gear yet. We're competing, but not really. Sydney dominated but are only 3 goals up. We are in this. You lot are crazy negative.

    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

    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
