WELL DONE DEES

PAST THE TEST OF NOT LOSING TO ANY BUM TEAMS FOR THE LAST 4 WEEKS.

THE NEXT 3 WEEKS ARE A TOUGHER TEST BUT I'M SURE WE WILL PASS IT WITH FLYING COLOURS.

GO THE MIGHTY DEES

I hope every single Melbourne supporter enjoyed every minute of that today.   That performance could not have gotten any better, and after the last decade and with what we've put up with it's so

We are now responsible for Carlton's biggest loss at the MCG, surpassing their 108 point loss to Collingwood in 2002.

I was constantly surprised as how easily Lever would spin out of tackles, sometimes amongst 3 Carlscum players.

... maybe a forward inside that skin.

would love it if he was also capable to swing forward, when warranted.

What a game that was. Even contribution across the field. Viney was pretty ineffective but will be much better for the run. For those saying that Hogan didn’t impact the game, I must insist that you look at our goals again. He must have directly assisted 4-5 which is a ridiculous number. 

He has become a supreme team player this year. Last year really transformed his from a boy to a man. Our best player wth Max so far this year.

We have momentum now. It’s a 50/50 game against Adelaide next week, win and we really set ourselves up for a good year.

 

Next match against the Crows is a big ask, after a month of wins.  We are still a little bit underdone yet, but hopefully Viney will be better for the run.

I can't see any changes from this lineup, unless there are injuries.

Wonderful win ... we beat the four teams that we were expected to beat but what was good was that we are demonstrably improving as a team.

Hogan playing up the ground together with the purple patch being enjoyed by Gus Brayshaw has been wonderful to watch. Fritsch seems to be growing in confidence by the week. Kudos of course to so many others including Lever and Tom Mac who have contributed to the last four wins.

Lots to like and I will be disappointed if we cannot win the next three and turn at the bye at 8-3.

Go Dees

The QB game could be a 85k crowd if Pies win the next two. (mind you..hope they lose both).

Very timely comment.  Mitch Robinson just took a gutsy mark for Brisbane (who are smashing the Dorks!!)

Robinson may have uttered the words; but have no doubt, it is what Carlton thinks about us...  narcissistic plonks.

Lever reads the play beautifully and is the best field kick in the team. Worth every dollar.

The quite fair criticism of our side is that they lost matches they should have won and that messed us up in September last year. We are now winning those games so we’ll done to everybody at the club.

Re Max going over the mark, I didn't quite catch it, but I thought he just jumped leaning forward and his feet did not go over the mark even when he landed.   If that is right I'm surprised that the rule prohibits that.

You will amazed to learn (ie, won't be amazed) that the rules do not say ANYTHING AT ALL about this situation.

16.3.2  Encroaching The Mark while Player is Kicking for Goal
If the Player standing The Mark encroaches The Mark whilst a Player is in the act of Kicking for Goal, the following shall apply:
      (a)  if a Goal is Kicked, the field Umpire shall signal ‘All Clear’ and a Goal shall be recorded; and
      (b)  if a Goal is not Kicked, the Player may elect to take another Kick, in which case the Player shall also be awarded a Fifty-Metre Penalty.

And what is "encroaching"? Not defined. Rules are silent.

 

The umps are refereeing the game to a set of rules that exist only in someone's head.

    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

    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.
