Not feeling too good about this one especially after we fell asleep for half an hour last week, just like Round 1.

I wont tip us until I have reason to, and so far there is none.

North by 17, sadly.

God I hope we win this one, need to keep building momentum early in the season, confidence etc and fk off this losing streak. 

North are taking me along to the Dees Chairman’s function so hoping for a cracking day with a easy Dees win.

Who’d you tip last night, out of interest?

As always I’ll head in hoping for the best expecting the worst (usual).

I just want to face the long commute home after beating North for once. 

C’mon Dees!

There’s an old Jewish saying I think applies here: ‘things are never as good as you hoped...nor as bad as you feared’.

Slightly conflicted.

Daughter has a 'rock climbing' party to attend at 3:30. Right next to the rock climbing centre is a brewery with a great tap room and also a great outdoor area for kids. Wife suggests she takes daughter to party and I can spend some 'quality' time with the boy at the brewery. I'd need to record the game and enforce a complete media blackout until home...and that would also mean talking to the boy, who I love dearly, but conversations at the moment are solely about cars (Mustangs and Bugattis) and beyblades (whatever the [censored] those are).

Or, stay at home and swear at the TV in real time.

We won’t win if any of the following occur:

1) Brown kicks at least 4

2) We concede a 3 + goal start at qtr time

3) Jacobs holds Oliver to under 20 touches

4) If both Cunnington and Higgins are in the best 5 on the ground.

I’m tipping us to win though. Not many sides win when their $3 or over to win.

Just get the wife to take your daughter to her party, and you can spend "quality time" with your son watching the game live on TV together.

You know it makes sense.

Im spending time with my daughter at the MCG (quality of said time TBA, will let you know at 5pm.)

They put beer on tap because of what Dees supporters have had to endure.  Where I sit I cannot ‘creatively vent’ my thoughts (perhaps it is regarded as antisocial behaviour, but Ben brown really is a [censored]).  So I will either be up cheering spilling my beer over the old [censored] in the flat hat, or murmuring dark curses into my beer as I sulk.

please, Dees.  That poor bastard in the flat cap needs a beer shower.

Which Demonland regular will be the first one to melt down and make a fool of themselves if North kick a couple of goals early in the game, or hang around for a half?

    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
