These umpires are killing the game seriously. 50 metre penalties are BS

WTF is going on Gill??

Is that a serious question? 

Gill is pandering to the corporate advertisers and hasn’t a clue what drives footy fans to follow their teams through thick and thin. 

Cares about the bottom line 1,2 and 3.  The fans 98, 99 and ?

Wow lions 3 and 0 us 0 and 3. 

Who the hell would have thought that at the start of season.  Sure as hell wasnt  me. 

 

I had the Lions finishing 6th on the ladder.  Their form doesn't surprise me. 

In the interest of transparency,  I had us finishing 2nd.  And strangely enough,  our form doesn't surprise me.  Because we are Melbourne.

That McInerney goes alright. Has bobbed up when needed the last two weeks with some strong marking and goals.

He was right on our doorstep, instead we chose some giraffe spud called Filipovic.

I'm liking the look of Brisbane.  They have some really good young talls who are starting to get their act together and have drafted a raft of fast hard mids with good foot skills.  Hipwood seems to have pulled his head out of his [censored], McInerny is standing up as the spare ruck/resting forward and Stef Martin is continuing his good form.  Bringing in Fagan seems to have been a masterstroke.

Dusty should get 2 weeks for that behind the ball hit and the an extra week for that snorting signal. 

Hope the hawks beat nth today just to keep them on the bottom and Brad Scott is kept winless

Every week I come on this forum saying I hope essenscum lose but obviously stuffed that up, but at least the pies lost. By the way I did laugh when the pies fans booed Sheed last night when he was going for goal. Just because he kicked the winner in the gf because the pies gave up a 5 goal lead, it isn't his fault. 

Im happy to see brisbane do well. Its good for qld footy 

Why is the dogs/suns game today beginning at 2:20 and not 1:10?

Roughead out is a massive loss for the hawks though

Last year we lead by 75 points against GC in the second qtr.

hate to think what the result would be today if we played them.

GC have inproved out of sight since May had left them.

Got in fresh young talent who are playing with such extreme enthusiasm.

Will be interested to see when the MRP  slaps Dusty with a feather for his actions.

Rod Grinter would have got 12 weeks for the same offence !!

Wonder if the Dogs' win last week was more a product of Hawthorn hitting a wall in the fourth quarter with only two on the bench.

Props to GC for getting two wins on the board early, they certainly look a much better side than last year, but the only way they could have had an easier fixture so far than St Kilda, Fremantle and the Dogs would be if they'd had us in there somewhere.

Yep, that's it. Everything else has stayed the same.

Seriously BBP.

GC would have beaten us easily today. Our one paced wombats bloated with bathwater  would have been left in the dust. 

Come on man... that statement is based on YOUR expectations of where YOU think the team should be... 

It's fine to be disappointed, and if you can look across the team and go 'aye, they're simply getting their paycheck and not putting in effort' for each an every one of them - then I would concur - but it aint right.... :)

    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.
