Just got an sms from the waitress who served Jesse and Nat their coffee.

She tells me that Jesse said to Nat that he was only having the coffee with him to stir up DL.

She then heard Nat say to Jesse, that if he grew his hair, he would show him how to tie up a man bun.

And how do I know this waitress red?? Hmmmmmmm???

Would it really be the end of the world if Jesse left? To be honest, I’d be just as excited with their pick 5, first rounder next year, Balic and possibly Tabener. 

I'd just say 'No. You are contracted'

Tony Sheahan is just a troll. He has no idea. 

Is that Tony is it? I had an inkling it may have been Nixon? Isn't Tony a Dees supporter though?? They are all full of it, just trying to rip hearts from supporters souls. Jay Clark seems to be one of the better ones on the Dees?

Why? So we can hold onto a player and build our game structure / plan for him and not develop players or build something now, when he will leave as a free agent in two years time, and then receive less in pick value as a result?

Makes perfect sense now to trade him than wait for the inevitable.

Yeah well in another development Apparently Jessie Hogan is very [censored] of with the Jack Watts situation and has had some conversations with Nat Fyffe and other Freo people. Make of that what you will

Picks are waaaaaay over-rated. And two years is a long time. Hell, 6 months can be a long time. 

You keep what you have until you don't want them anymore or you can get something better. I don't see either of those conditions being met today.

I'd like to see some stats on JH, will have a look later. % of games won with/without him, better off to do this year as current. And also what our return from him is games missed v games total. Has had a bad run and spent a lot of time on the sidelines.

I know nothing about who is liable to be available at any pick, but I do know one thing - it's a gamble, you may get a star almost immediately, you may get one who is a star in a few years (and then leaves for another club) or you may draw a dud.  So any deal which involves trading a player (unless we have an excess of players in that position) who has played AFL reasonably well for a #5 draft pick is a dangerous gamble.   Better to trade picks and let other clubs do the gambling.

Great.

Jesse has met Fyfe for A SECOND time.. 

This is getting ridiculous.

Club may as well fold.

So he met some guy with a man bun.  Melbourne unaware of meeting (dont need to be), not aware of wanting to be traded (because he doesn’t?).  No news.  Jesse is always going to attract the go home story, I have seen nothing to suggest he will not be contracted and playing next year.

I would start at 3 first rounders for Hogan. Contracted player who is a key forwArd that we payed 2 first rounders for originally.

Since then we have developed him from the age of 17 to be primed for next 10-12 years. 

3 first rounders is what I feel is needed to get it done.

It's a pretty good consolation if it were to happen.

    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
