Ugh yuck. I think if the filth get through tomorrow I may ask Dutton to deport me somewhere. 

Seriously geelong were pathetic in that 2nd half. They just crumbled. Interestingly we didn't see Chris Scott being shown in the box in the final term. But those 2nd quarter misses really hurt them. 

They kicked 1 goal in each of the 3rd and final quarters. This was the team that finished on top. 

Ablett can no longer kicked the ball over 45 metres,  Dahlhaus provided nothing and Danger was not sen in the final term. 

Wonder what Chris Scott will say in his presser. 

GWS please please do us a favour and knock the filth put tomorrow.

Why? 

If Ablett and Harry retire, that won't kill them and they have 8 guaranteed walk up start wins, at their own dung heap. An advantage that no other Vic team has.

When Kelly goes they will get players or high picks.

They have a potential forward star in Esava.

Players seem to want to go there.

I hope you’re right, but Geelong are like herpes, they just won’t go away.

And not a minute too soon 

That smug [censored] Dangerfield can wipe the stupid smile off his face.

He would have left our club years ago. Dusty wouldn't have hung around during our bad periods. 

In fairness Tigers had a pretty poor (mind you not by our standards) few years after he was drafted IIRC.

Because they have a ageing list that will get found out next year.

Yep, Houli and Edwards led the second half resurgence; some moments of true brilliance.

Houli must be so happy to have left the Bombers before the needles came out.  

A very committed and still improving player.

I wish it were so, but that bl@@dy team always seems to find some players from under the cow pats in the paddocks down there. 

Bl@@dy farmers.

I was at the match.

It is depressing to think that a team like Richmond, a top 2 side, can top up with Lynch, virtually the best forward in the game. A player like that simply wont come to Melbourne.

And Howe, now an All Australian, walks.

What hope is there?

They're done 'Red'...

Apart from Ablett & Harry,

The end is near for Selwood x 2, Hawkins & Tuohy.

Danger can't run a long campaign carrying the team, didn't/couldn't fire a shot when needed in the 2nd half & a lot of wasted possessions in the first.

Kelly will be a huge loss, kids from the draft won't cover his loss.

    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.
