The first upset has already occurred. I'm upset that Carlton are part of another televised Friday night game. It's an outrage!

That worked well last year.

Crows fans will be really happy.  They've just been tipped out of the eight by a bee's and replaced by .... Port Adelaide.

Classic Luke Darcy getting excited by Rance when he allowed an uncontested Essendon mark in their forward line.

Just the standard commentary by the commentators and media about Rance. Back before half time he marked uncontested in the backline, then took off and kicked long to a two on one with his teammate out-numbered. Ball turned over immediately due to a bad decision and bad kick by Rance, but commentators blew their load about how good he is at rebounding! It's excruciating every week listening to the hype around a guy who repeatedly f*cks up and gets smashed one-on-one. He wouldn't be in the top 10 backmen this year, let alone in the conversation about best of all time!

Two dogs breakfasts of games tonight on "primetime" television. No wonder TV ratings are in the toilet if this is the rubbish being served up.

That was embarrassing by Essendon defence just then. Would've been nice to be 2nd on the ladder tonight, you useless drug cheats!

Not unhappy to see them brought back to Earth though.

LOL at Rance's dive just then, pathetic! I'm actually convinced that the commentary and hype around him is a giant prank on me and I'm part of a Trueman Show type thing this year. Absolute batshit crazy!

Tigers smashing them now and getting a percentage boost. Looks like both them and the Eagles will overtake our percentage tonight. We still have a firm hold on third place though with Swans over 20% behind us.

Pathetic dive from Rance. Of course, every commentator in the boys club will remain on their knees undoing his fly every night, gushing pleasantries about his extraordinary defending.

Surely the most overrated defender in the comp.

And then he blamed it on Floss-Stone (I mean, he DID slip over, but I feel like Jake Lever would have still punched that ball into next century).

better for the top sides to win (eagles/tigers) and put more space between us and those below.  

IMVHO it is always best for the lower side to beat the higher side, Demons games excepted.

I believe in bone bruising and will continue to do so until the medical profession is completely overthrown resulting in the execution of all doctors and their wholesale replacement with holistic crystal-lovers.

Come at me!

Thank God Essendon are poo again, I was starting to worry. The temporary seat in 2nd was nice, but it’s important that order is restored. We can always pass the Tiges later.

I hope Richmond are aware that this thrashing they’re dealing out doesn’t count, though.

They are a disgrace they are that bad they should hand over Anzac day and Dream Time to us.

Is anyone else not surprised with how bad the Saints are?  I would like to think most could see them falling off a cliff the moment Riewoldt retired.  That bloke is a superstar for keeping them competitive over his last few years in the game.  They might have kicked a few in junk time but make no mistake, they have 1 win and 1 draw after 11 rounds and look like going nowhere.

Also, thanks to the Drug Cheats for allowing the Tigers to give their percentage a huge boost.  Pricks.

When are we going to hear more noise about the free kick differential in Perth particularly west coast currently 25-11 Seems week after week it happens 

There’s been noise about West Coast’s free kick advantage for at least four years. Nobody knows what to do about it.

The drug cheats are excruciatingly bad. Goddard should retire. I hate Goddard, I hate the drug cheats, I hate the Toiges. What a crap match. I think I'll do a cryptic crossword.

Mad Dogs on me makes rousing cheer (2-6)

Yes the won again, this time they limped over the line at home to a struggling Saints.

The big think they achieved is once again they won the free kick count comprehensively at home by 25 to 12, they are simply a juggernaut, it’s amazing such consistency.

    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
