Fighting spirit Demons well played young Dees! Beaten by a more experience side. Fought it out and a good come back. 12 point loss fair effort. Pleasing. In for a big year.

good on field leadership by clarry that quarter when tigers were coming hard. he took the mark at CHB and could have easily played on but slowed play down instead. passes to angus, he kicks long down the line, reset again then bang, bang, 2 goals for us in 2 minutes.

Commentator just said both sides have their main players in it......uhhhh

We're missing VDB, Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Jetta, Lever, May, Jones, Lewis, Melksham and Hannan (i count at least 9 of our best 22).

Tiges are missing Grigg, Castagna, Lynch and Caddy from their best 22.

A few missing from Tiges, a lot from our side, commentator clearly has NFI

Not unhappy with that. Looked clean which is a great sign in JLT, especially in close.

Now no injuries and no blow out loss and I'll be happy.

Good to be posting on DL again after the summer hiatus :)

Anybody know how to get rid of the stats screen on my tablet, and have the video full screen?

 

You watching using AFL app? That's the way it is now. They don't give you the full screen

Trac is a much better shot on the run. 

He's like Robert Redford as The Sundance Kid

I thought Preuss was dominant in the ruck

He's no Max, but he'll quickly become a very handy addition to our side.  If he can hold his own up forward then he can feast on the oppositions second ruckman when he gives Max a rest.

Most out there from our backline. Which is a bit what we're seeing - rest of the field looks pretty solid, backs not so much.

Fair indication of our midfield depth with plenty out but we have an onball trio of Brayshaw Oliver and Harmes...

Oliver is Oliver, but with the stunning emergence of Harmes and re-emergence of Gus, our midfield bats very deep.

Spot on, bing.  Many of their scores came from a turnover or missed spoils.  That won't happen nearly as much with the first choice defence in there.

Annoying, at least I don't get the Iphone view anymore, and at least I watching the game, not whinging just asking

Hoping Trac can work on his set shots. He’s great otherwise and could be such a damaging player for us this year.

We look to have good depth through the midfield. Preuss has been fairly poor though. Opposition ruckman have just been taking it out of the ruck against him. Harmes and Brayshaw both look like continuing on from last year and dominating again.

    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.
