When Brown was at Gold Coast Suns he punched a young team mate. Broke his jaw.

Having Mal Brown as his father is a wonderful pedigree.

Clearly a top bloke.

I'm going through the games we've played this season, only the ones we won, and you can see the improvement as the year goes on. I can't see the point in watching the games we lost, why disappoint myself.

When I finish i'll watch the GF again, rinse and repeat.

I’m with you. I’m still looking for a vid of the season on you tube doesn’t include our losses

I just read that ‘story’ about the supposed nightclub incident. Imagined that this was your job? ‘well I heard that someone said something over a balcony and then all hell broke loss (but nothing happened)’.

I’d be embarrassed if I was Campbell Brown. Surely you can do something else with your time. There’s a job shortage. Take advantage.

Tom Browne is kicking himself he didn't break the story

I have recently started reviewing the season for youtube and whilst the wins are obviously great, I'm actually kind of excited to rewatch the Adelaide loss and see Oliver's performance again. The pies game not so much but it's all about the journey to be Premiers. The improvement and challenges in each game are great and there are some lessons in the losses.

This story sounds like a plot from Home and Away. Complete trash.

 

This is the way males in high school engineer confrontation.

Distort or obfuscate a story, hope neither party tries to build bridges to the other, hope heresay can’t be distinguished from reality  and that the tension boils up  to the point where punches are thrown.

Puerile stuff from a puerile newspaper.

A friend of mine sent me this pic. It’s from a friend of hers and although I’ve never met him I know he’s got at least two awesome qualities: (1) he’s a rescue-dog person, and (2) he’s a Dees man.

This was taken during the GF ❤️💙

He may be a rescue dog person, but it doesn't look like he had rescued any Bulldogs at that stage.

Probably a hell of a lot more needing rescue now.

Sounds like an old fashioned standoff at the OK Corral.

This reminds me of the story of the old empty barn.   There was nothing in it.

Over half their GF team is OOC next year including some of their finest:

  • Zaine Cordy
  • Bailey Dale
  • Caleb Daniel
  • Josh Dunkley
  • Tim English
  • Mitch Hannan
  • Jason Johannisen
  • Jackson Macrae
  • Alex Keath
  • Stefan Martin
  • Josh Schache
  • Bailey Smith

Can they keep the best 6 or 7 happy... ?

Just as well they didn't win the premiership or they would have a bigger sal cap problem!!!

Thanks Loges but in full disclosure, It doesnt include the thirty times I watched the last ten minutes of the third.

That third quarter is classic "Tale of Two Cities" material.

I think like most I find it far more satisfying than the last quarter

I know I should wash out my mouth, but I'm pretty much 'over' watching replays of the match.

I agree..............but i'm not tired of the second half against the Cats in Rd 23. The last passage of play starting with the the ridiculous insufficient intent call against Brayshaw and finishing with the mark and after the siren goal from Maxy WILL NEVER GET OLD

I’m worried about hanging onto Jackson and Kozzie in the long run. Other teams must have them in their sights

I used to have Elle McPherson in my sights; fat lot of good it did me.

Most of our third quarters have been very good. The one thing that stood out early this season was us never giving up.

Reckon someone like Dale might get a silly club to throw some very good coin at him.

I'm not. In a post match interview a day or so later one of the older players relatively  (may have been salem but i can't recall exactly) noted the team discussions had turned to looking forward together to the 10 year reunion.

He said the weird thing was that jackson and pickett would still be playing then for the dees.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    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
