0 disposals 0 marks 0 1%ers  ..  clearly has to go

I agree that Tommy is on very thin ice and that Fritsch is a poor kick on goal but the rest of what you say I can't agree with.

Milkshake I'd certainly keep and ditto for the rest.

Jonesy should hang them up, I agree with that.

Spargo a poor game with 2 rippers in the bank. Fritta was good today with 8 marks.

Weid is good but canr seem to maintain his intent for 4 qrtrs.

Hannan, Harmes and Tmac have had their day it seems.

Pickett is just starting out so needs more time.

Back to the drwaing board.

To be fair to Goody who would want this bloody iob.

Five  years on $600,000? I'd love his job please.

Viney would be a great Rugby player as he tries to beat tackle after tackle after tackle. I'll say it again Fritsch is soft and a very unreliable kick for goal/

yes agree.....58% efficiency & 9 turnovers for Viney.....kills us!

You are too black and white. Win, we have so many good players, lose we have few. Today we lost by 28 points not 128 points. Yet you could find only two players worth their salt.They must have played brilliantly to keep the losing margin under 5 goals. Sorry mate, but today you were over the top in your criticism. BUT that is your perogative. I simply beg to differ.

Brayshaw - No real impact.

Oliver - One good goal.

May - Ultimate Oscar upgrade.

McDonald - Moves like grandpa.

Weideman - Kicked his 2

Langdon - Found usual space

Tomlinson - barely noticed him

Melksham - costly brain-fades

vandenBerg - More costly frees

Pickett - slow fu$%#ng down!

Lockhart - Not out worst

Harmes - In wrong position

Hannan - lost his way

I think Fritsch is probably getting away with a lot more than he should due to his couple of goals each week.

He’s getting a fair few looks at it, but is very selective as to when he has a crack.

Fritsch and Melksham give zero defensive pressure and neither are consistent enough to demand the respect of their opponent. 
 

Forward line is still an issue and will be for as long as Melksham gets an armchair ride

Love Melks for his kicking, but he is costing us goals each week through lack of concentration, effort and attitude. He needs to be dropped otherwise he'll keep doing what he's doing and getting away with it because he's mates with the coach. For example he missed a 20m kick for goal by kicking into the man on the mark - very costly at that point in the game and then giving away 50m penalties - not good enough from a very experienced player. Same goes for Hibberb kicking 15m across HFF to the opposition and costing us a goal. We need to bring in players like Rivers and Bennell for these 2. Obviously Preuss goes out for Max. Then perhaps Jordon for Sparrow injury etc..... I'd even bring in O. Mac for Tommy and play him at CHF. We need to be creative like Beveridge - Goodwin is too conservative - I'm sick of Salem playing HBF where he kicks dinky kicks - play him wing/HFF or on the ball. For that matter I'd rest VDB who apart from the odd bone crunching tackle doesn't do enough.

That 50m penalty was absolute BS.

He is naturally an outside player

Yes, agree that Fritta is an outside player - that's why he should be practising and mastering so many training goals and angular strategies every week for goalkicking reliability. He must score 2 out of every 3 to be any good. Someone mentioned earlier today that TMac got one goal and so in Goody's eyes, he is guaranteed a slot against the Saints. The problem is that the poster is correct. That is pathetic as it is but Goody seems to have turned Fritta into another '...p'raps he will, p'raps he won't...' type of forward.

When Goody has taken over two high quality teams on the verge of winning a flag and fails then maybe he can compete with Ross

    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.
