What was our half time score in 186?

If Richmond pull their fingers out one of our shameful records could be lost.

OMG the Friday scheduling has hit rock bottom, thanks Gil.

There was a time that I hardly missed a Friday night game on TV: this year hardly ever.

Tonight watched a bit of the second quarter then totally lost interest.

What a farce.

just watching the 3rd quarter and billings has taken a mark & then mucked up the gimme set shot.. bruce says 'quiet first half from jack', or something to that effect. more like, 'quiet first half of your career jack'. so stoked we didn't take him.

also, i gotta say, trent cotchin is such a great player these days. so physical and tough in the contest. if there's a loose ball to be won, he generally wins it. such an improvement from the level he played at for years when richmond just couldn't get above 9th. impressive.

Show me a Richmond player that isn't.

I remember walking away from our round 13 game last year when we beat the reigning premier by nearly 10 goals. Our players were 'manic' in their endeavour. I couldn't comprehend why they weren't able to bring the same desire week in, week out.

Dimma has got his team doing just that.

true.. but, if the ball was on the ground and there were a handful of tigers jumpers around, cotchin is getting that ball. almost plays like viney when he is playing at his optimum. just brutal.


re: the 2016 against the bulldogs. i think there was blood in the water at that stage wasn't there? i dare say our young kids knew and attempted to beat them up, having been beaten to a pulp many times by them over the years.. but yes, it's frustrating. i think we can it these days much better over a game, but just not PEAK PRESSURE. not sure why. maybe today? ?

We lost two in form players in Nathan Jones and Jack Watts for several weeks from injuries incurred during that game and lost more in the ensuing weeks. This was also during that period when we had 4 successive 6-day breaks and we eventually just ran out of steam. 

This time around, there are no excuses.

I remember landing there about 5 years ago and thaught the plane was going to skid off the runway. It was scary. Mid arvo with no wind.

What a dilemna. I hate the filth so much. I hate Norf too, but not as much.

It's probably preferable that Collingwood win to increase our chances of making the 8. But hoping the filth win? Probably a bridge too far !!

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
