i hear they have finally lost patience with a few average players and let them go. Guy martin is one of them. But they unfortunately lost the services of young gun daniel corp who showed some really good signs last year.

Yes, i hear that news too. Daniel Corp seems headed down to Frankston chasing a game as he thinks the weather is a bit cooler further down south and his albino skin will not get harmed as much as it would in the blistering Sandringham heat. Good luck to the youngster and i hope he can finally lose his virginity soon.

Pitty about the other kid.... he had a really big charisma with great looks.

Maybe if he spent more time on football and not looking in the mirror he might play a few good games. THtas his problem he is always worried about getting hurt rather than getting the hard ball like corp. Martyn will struggle without corp putting the ball on a plate for him!

Martyn's softness and inabilty to get the hard ball reminds me of young Danny "Frogger" Hughes'. Frogger is what the boys around the club call him. Danny must keep his eye on the ball and not get so scared around the men in the packs. Come on Frogger, keep trying son and remeber, they're only humans.

Yes, i have noticed Danny's, or Froggers as you like to say softness although i must admit he is getting better. He looks much improved this year and looks tougher with his new no frills hair cut. Looks like he's really focused this year with the shaved head. Good to see he has got rid of those lairising locks with ludicris bleached spots.

Is there any football club that doesn't have a 'frogger' running around?

are you seriouse? i reckon he is the worst commentator! i dont hate him but if you have heard him on sandy games he basically says nothing good about them and always puts the team down.

Phil Cleary's website is currently carrying this cryptic message:-

" The End of the VFA?

The VFL supporters website is carrying stories about my departure from the ABC TV VFL commentary box. In time I'll provide the real story.."

Meanwhile, things are quiet as a church mouse down at Sandy and the only news I have is of former players at other clubs -

Liston Medallist and former Demon rookie and Zebra David Robbins has signed to play for Port Melbourne this year.

Former Demon Benny Beams who played in Sandy's 2000 premiership team has retired from the Tassie Devils where he has been the captain.

    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.
