Did goodwin talk to the crowd? Maxy Im sure would have been a hit with everyone. 

Goody mingled with the fans and was very accommodating. Down to earth and happy to talk about his "boys". He has always been this way, he hasn't changed. When asked about the injuries, Garlett and JKH are touch and go, but as far as he knows the rest will be in line for round 1. Yes, the lines for Maxy and Viney were a long wait, but all us girls formed our own line for Robbo24! More photos for the collection!

Had a wonderful time with the kids who was on their best behaviour. Lines to Viney, Bradshaw, Gawn etc were long especially when you had to be next to the speakers. Gawn asked my niece who was his favourite player and she said “you!” He just laughed and said “you’re just saying that!” 

Jones held up my little nephew in the photo. Got some great shots, but being they’re not my children, I can’t post them online. Bumped into a few people I see at games. Great to catch up.

Noticed Melkshan was in arts and crafts. Made these neat badges for my younger niece/nephew. Being her birthday soon, she asked “Aunty Cass, can we go to the demon shop?” Ended up forking out over $50, but at least I’m set for birthdays now.

All in all, a great day. Not too hot like last year and good to see even more people.

My understanding is that Goody gave up on that plan for the extra two behind the ball about half way into last year.

Cant believe players can be so inflexible !(or selfish) If they aren't mentally right about this then let them learn at Casey.

BTW what did they do before Goody invented this move? Start on the forward line obviously.

Please if this is one of our real worries we have got problems. Send them on a Camp to get their heads in the right place!!!

Players don't dictate rules or positions in the game and definitely not in this Demons era of success.

 

Relax, I have discussed this with some players, including at the Sponsors function today, they are just getting ised to it

Only real issue is giving away a silly free kick for not being in the correct position that costs a goal

Did any of the players mention anything regarding Hogan leaving and their thoughts about it?

I didn't see Hogan there, and the players didn't either, so...out of sight, out of mind I guess. As Winston Churchill said, "Let us go forward together."

The ladies were awesome to talk to today. Very approachable and quite obvious they were still on a high from last night’s victory. Grinning from ear to ear they were. Good luck to them next week.

How would I know?  It came from another poster who spoke to an unnamed player. Good to hear though. 

General question, Red, more a follow up on the conversation.

Max had been around four a while so would know how the newbies are rated, particulary Bradke

Robbo interviewed Bradtke at the function, seems to be an already popular guy amongst the boys

Tommy Mc has been mentoring Bradtke on his forward craft, Robbo pushed Tommy under the bus by saying Tommy told him that Bradtke could be anything or nothing??

The comment on tbe newbies came from Brayshaw and also Jake Lever

Thanks Saty good to hear your comment. As they say "It will be all right on the night!!"  Hasn't changed my optisim for a stellar season and can't wait to see the Dees at the Cattery for a good old fashioned contest in a developing rivalry all of which helps build a smaller Club into a potential major player in the future.

    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
