Meanwhile . . . over at the Kennel



Recommended Posts

  • Time for the coach to go. Our structure is shot. Players not playing for him. In fact sack anyone that had anything to do with signing Trengrove
  • I don’t think anyone can argue against the point that we’re in a complete rebuild phase. There’s a lot of things to fix/improve etc
  • If anyone says at least it was only 8 goals, I’ll spew up
  • In summary, we led by around 18 points at some stage in the first quarter. 11+ goal turn around for the remainder of the game.
  • I was a little under-whelmed by Melbourne. They'll be there or thereabouts in September but not sold yet.
  • Congratulations to Nathan Jones too on 248 H&A games.
  • Time to organize the trades. Dalhouse Boyd and Roughead. Delistings - Honeychurch, Dickson, Smith, Crozier, for starters. Boyd need to do something about him. Cut our losses and move on.
  • Boyd just isn’t the answer I’m afraid. Bloke looks like Tarzan but plays like Jane
  • Noooo dogs how could u let a salary cap breaching club like Melbourne beat u..they dont even have training facilities
  •  just an opinion this is.... in my heart NOW.. yes..2016...this group did play well..but...i am fully convinced to the hilt...it was just as about every other premiership certain club's won..IT WAS GIVEN TO THEM...by th AFL... n.. that's FARKIN SAD.!!.. 1f60e.png?
  • Are the Doggies that bad or are the Demons that good. What is going on.
  • Go Dees, had to beat the umpires as well as the Bulldogs.
  • Boyd and schache run away from the ball haha
  • What’s actually happened to Bevo? Seems a shell of the coach that led us in 2015 and 16. I just don’t understand what he’s trying to achieve, and the players look absolutely lost. It’s concerning.

Congratulating Nathan Jones on '248 H&A games' is absolute gold.  I could see that poster yelling it out as Jonesy was chaired from the ground, frustration and anger written all over his face as he has nothing else to yell out.

I don't get it.

Did he play in 2 finals in his first year? Don't really understand either...

Yes played 2 finals in 2006 but can’t fathom what point he is trying to making.

I prefer them after a win. 

Watching Geelong smashing the Suns, now us only beating them by 69 feels like a loss. 2 losses in one day

I posted on their gameday thread (post game), however, my posting privileges on that thread have been revoked.  

I'm not sure why.

Gist of what you said, PD?

In response to one of their fans saying they were "underwhelmed by Melbourne".

It was our worst performance in 6 weeks on the back of being up for a fair while, a six day turn around and a trip to Alice.

Glad we scraped over the line.

Salary cap breaching club???

WTF are they on?? Last time I checked they were the team that went and paid 1m a season to Tom Boyd whiles retaining their entire list. 

If anyone's cap should be questioned it should be Hawthorns, can't see how we are close to breaching.

I see ‘wowlace’ stole your avatar @ProDee

In fairness, he was first.

He took the incredible "amazeballs" expression, which left me with the incredible "you're a $%#$^%$ idiot" expression.

Ha, I forgot about Tom Boyd. 

 

Even though he played all day today.

Well it depends on your definition of "played". He was on the ground for the game.....didn't really display any football though. ;)

    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

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
