Watch GWS' "effort" last night.

GC had 5 scoring shots for entire match.

Carlton lost by 81 points and conceded something like 10 goals in about half an hour.

Yes, we're all angry and frustrated and down after yesterday but let's not make things up.

Freo now having a red hot go at rolling over again now too.

Thank goodness for this forum.  I don't feel so alone in my bloody disappointment

The joke is we were 32 points ahead of the Lions late in the game and like the Saints game, frittered away a good lead and had we not, we would be ahead of the Bombers on percentage. We have abso

What a great idea dressing the umps in blue to blend in with Footscray's jumper - lets face it it's the same team after all

Four quarter matches have been few and far between this year- but we played a ripper against WCE the week after we belted Footscray.

Certainly, but we haven't played any better than the Footscray game, maybe west coast at a stretch.

I'm surprised that so many on here are surprised about yesterdays result. 

We limped across the line against Brisbane

I was obviously talking about teams in final contention. Carlton and Gold Coast have nothing to play for!

An epic Essendon choke would definitely be the next best thing to just having got the job done ourselves. Dream still alive!

Sure. We would go in as MASSIVE Underdogs for the next 5 weeks

The MFC's favoured position by a long shot

Looks like everything's going to plan for the AFL. Why have a lowly club like Melbourne in when you can guarantee the Drug Cheats and Meth Coke?

After all, Gil himself said he needed Essendon successful again and playing finals. He won't let the opportunity go begging.

10 free kicks in the first quarter to the cheats! - including multiple shots for goal

we had 12 for the whole match yesterday 

Watson's first 3 disposals for the game all came from free kicks. [censored] convenient!

The AFL are creaming themselves at the prospect of Essendon making finals. Hence giving them pick 1 and the softest draw for artificially finishing 18th last year.

I've got no doubt the AFL want West Coast in the finals instead of Melbourne.

$$$

West Coast are the richest club outside Victoria, aren't they? Huge incentive for the AFL's coffers if they get in, just like Essendon and Richmond. I won't be surprised if there's some suspect umpiring to secure Richmond in the top 4, just like the blatant pro-Essendon umpiring bias we're seeing at Etihad.

    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

    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
