To Hell and Back.    What an arrogant bunch of flogs to sell that rubbish to us.

That's the way guys, let's get stuck into the 7th gamer when all of our core leaders are playing poorly. You muppet, he's possibly one of about 2 of our players who are playing well.

Triple M commentary:  "Simon Goodwin standing 3 metres from me with his thumb in his mouth,  clueless what to do next. " Says it all really.

Our forward line is rat****. 

Pickett looks flashy, but ultimately is a non-contributor. Offers little offensively and defensively.

Jackson isn’t a forward.

Weid can’t handle wrestling with big defenders.

TMac is slower and less agile than my grandmother.

Fritsch is a specialist at shanking his kicks.

Melksham doesn’t rock up half the time.

Possibly the worst forward line since Brad Miller lead players like Pettard and Dawes into battle.

Guys i got home late.  Thought chanel 70 was on series tag.  Wait ....no recording as my series tag for AFL was too low down the pecking order.  Arghh....wot to do.  Wait i got Kayo yippee!

So i sit down with dins and a cold ale hoping to at least witness a hard fought contest with a team that's eager to improve.

Now i have no idea what's happened.  I have not read one post on here and i don't know the result.  However, i just had the unfortunate experience of watching one of the most undisciplined bunch of rabble attempt to play something resembling AFL footy i have ever seen.  Easily rates up there as a top 50 or so i think and ive seen some horrors watching this mob.

All rookies excused.  The rest who have 70 plus games or more, apart from a few try hards, well words escape me.  Abomination?

So i head into the 2nd  hoping for the best but expecting more of the same.  We don't even look like scoring a goal at this point with one rushed kick from a defender (Lockhart...who actually wasn't too bad that quarter) and a bog ordinary nothing kick from Clarry into the post after the siren.

Could it get worse?  Yes it could.  If we keep playing at that sub standard we'll be lucky if any networks will even bother with us from here.  Who the hec would want to watch this rubbish.  Very hard to polish a turd i'm afraid.

And it all started with a wet behind the ears Georgiardio easily losing Oscar as Port brought it through the middle, taking a simple overhead, and kicking truly.  His bro, lead foot Tom, aint helping one bit so far.  And Harmes!??  What the hell's going on there?  Chunk doing his usual get ball ...turn ball over immediately through the middle trick.  

We almost look like we've raised the white flag from the get go.

I hope i'm proven wrong.  Off to watch the 2nd.  Oh what joy.

Can't remember there last time I've done it even in the dark Neeld years but I'm turning off just making me angry. I don't need this s*$@t

Honestly, the best way to deal with this is to not care about it.

I wonder if the bloke running the place understands just how dangerous it would be for the clubs future if other long term members took a similar view?

Lol Pickett, does nothing but give away frees. Cant believe we've likely essentially paid more than pick 1 for him.

He’s a tiny peanut. Overrated on this site so far. Let’s hope he improves. Looks like a poor man’s JKH at this stage.

WTF is Langdon doing?  HE sees the turnover on our HF line and for some idiotic reason every single time he starts stalking forwards towards the ball carrier and leaves his man wide open on the wing.  How many times have they gone over his head tonight?

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
