Ok, if we happen to meet the Swans in the finals so be it. Honestly, after all this time it would be great to just get some September action. We haven't met the Swans in a final since 1987 w

You could well be right RTG

i forgot about the disgraceful MRP decisions last week

I was right...just. Good result for us but, no question, the non suspension of Wines and the ludicrous suspension of Redpath (following Davis' dive) tipped the balance.

what did he do? Try a torp that didn't work? 

Had a mark about 10 metres out from his own goal. Missed an easy 15 metre pass straight to dangerfield.

Port result good for us. GWS are playing arrogant footy up till quarter time. Hopefully they can improve a lot and win well. Wet Coke winning would be dreadful.

2/2 for results going our way so far! Brilliant!

You're up next GWS, beat these soft ducking Eagles into dust!

Then we need Essendon to blow another gimme win.

And finally, we need to not seriously [censored] everything up tomorrow like we did 3 weeks ago!:o

Lucky we have bye week this year, as Geel vs GWS would be another dead rubber where one team can rest one week and concede a home final and go full strength the following week while another goes full strength for both matches and burns themselves out.

Also go Saints for round 23. The game that could gift us an away strip white shorts final against Richmond, if we win our games.

[censored] hell, the Eagles must be the most boring team in the comp. Their entire gameplan consists of:

Kick from tall to tall around the boundary line until you fluke a mark in front of goal. All the while the midfield runs around aimlessly, uninvolved, diving for free kicks at every opportunity because they refuse to tackle or play contested ball. The only reason they manage so many wins is the umpiring advantage at Subiaco; they're scared to death of contested ball.

They are absolutely one of Macca's "teams who will get found out very quickly in finals."

GWS got out to 20 points in front then got real pretty with their play. They should at least be about 30 points in front but for their arrogance. I think I will start on the VBs now.

Can you believe that this time next week we could actually be celebrating the fact we are going to play finals. Sorry don't want to get carried away but it is an exciting thought. 

Just heard Treloar on the radio saying how they look forward to next week and they will set themselves to go out on a win. Also either Howe or Dunn said last week they want to win r23 against there old teammates and maybe wreck our final chances. Said with a smile of course and a laugh. 

Well as put in other posts I hope  a miracle occurs tonight and the suns win.  But the scum will be even more fired up because they know they can make the 8. 

Imagine the media going on about how good a story it is from what they have been through. I can just imagine it now. Uggh!

GWS arrogant as ever, they won't be in the Grand final, will probably blow a prelim against a team they expect to smash. 

 

Yeah I'm excited about the possibility same as everyone, but Brisbane looking to scrape a few wins at the end of season to build confidence into 2017, I'm not taking tomorrows game lightly.

    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

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
