I finished school in '06 and started at the pig farm in April '07. Have been betting a 6 pack on every North game with my boss and obviously lost them all.  These are going to be the sweetest 6 b

norf would have had this game pencilled in as a win.

Really surprised they didn't bring in Preuss, as he manhandles Max, and could have curtailed his influence.

 

Anyway, eat a slimy bucket of dciks norf supporters.

A win like this makes it very tough for the players at Casey to get in the side, but that’s exactly as it should be! Itdhould be blooody difficult and once there don’t lose your spot.

i was a bit disappointed with the delivery inside 50. Seemed hap hazard at times. Other times it was gone.  What a win.  Go dees!!!

They shouldn't have even had a 4 goal lead, honestly the worst umpiring I have seen in a dees game in that first quarter

Ben Browns stats look inflated. 3/4 of his goals were from frees. (One where he faked it and another earnt by his team mate).

Wasnt the fanciest of wins, but boy does it feel good to put those campaigners back in their box.

Good team effort to come back from a super sloppy start.

Horrendous umpiring. Really needs to be looked at. That call on fritsch was the worst ive seen in a long timem

Jordan Lewis was very very good today.

If not for those silly umpires it would’ve been a ten goal win.

At a bucks party so have only seen stats. Buggy four goals.  Welcome back Dean Kent. Lewis worthy of a spot? Cmon you demons!

Lewis definitely worthy of a spot much to some peoples chagrin.

That's why Bugg gets a game hes not the cleanest player but he'll always give you a contest. Salem was very good as was Wagner. After the first 10 minutes it was a pretty clinical team effort despite still wasting some inside 50s and a couple of scares particularly late in the 3rd.

Agreed. Oscar is in my votes. Great game from him, helped by a much better defensive effort all around.

Really looking forward to watching the replay of this one, so many stupid losses to this rabble. Though I have a feeling I’m going spend some time confused about some frees. About bloody time we broke the curse. 

I believe that is most (if not all) of the crazy streaks/hoodoos gone. 

[EDIT] [censored] yeah!!!!!

We beat North. We beat Ziebel, Cunnington and Sideshow Bob. We beat a Scott brother. We beat Nicholls.

Just clocking in for the first time in a while to say that this will 100% be the most satisfying win of the H&A season. We beat North. The last of our dark day hoodoos is dead. Thank the heavens.

Don't forget we still owe Carlton for last year. Also Essendon, Collingwood, Richmond, Hawthorn, .... well just pencil in the whole comp!

Max has gone to another level, those pick ups from his ankles to feed teammates, wow. Kent’s pressure inside our forward 50 was immense. 

Sorry Jordan Lewis for the spray in the second quarter. We will sleep well tonight, go Dees!

That was some shocking umpiring. Brown gets a free kick for elbowing Lever in the head... What The?

I am prepared to admit that Wagner is not a total waste of space and try to be mentally fairer on him in future. I have struggled to understand why he was in the team since some of the hideous butchery of the ball he produced last year. He seems to be fairly reasonable at the moment.

Kent seems to be back in form, wow, pressure on selection is going to get fairly fierce!

Go Dees! Great win, we needed that!

    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
