Injury report.

Also apparently VFLW is starting this weekend. Who knew? Not me! Glad there's now somewhere to drop players to rather than leaving them to languish.

I'm really looking forward to seeing Purcell play soon. Her toughness around the ball is something we’ve been missing this season. Hopefully she can find form before our tough run of fixtures against North, Lions and Freo. If she can fire from the get go she’ll be a huge in for us

I think this happened before Round 5, but for anyone that missed it:

Also saw a round-up of the stats leaders at the halfway point:

DIO, Kate has been real quiet and ineffective during the last 2 weeks so it would be gr8 if she could recapture her pre and early season form.  Fingers are crossed!  We need her firing as together with, T Harris and D Pearce, they form the basis of an enviable forward structure.

Parry is lucky to keep her place this week, as we have discussed, and she needs to impose herself.  

Lauren is the best ruck / onballer in AFLW according to Sarah Black and Meggs agrees. He was lukewarm on Birch last year but Libby has been totally excellent in 2022 and together with Lampard, Goldie and Heath (best game last week) the Dees backline is shaping up well.

This week we’ll miss one of Meggs’s faves, C Sherriff, due to concussion but he would prefer Bannan on the wing, to the selected inside-mid  🔫  Mithen, on the opposite wing to the indefatigable McNamara-Langdon.

Hanksy it’s good to have you back. We love you!  We hope Maddie Gay is recovering well and are really looking forward to seeing Liv Purcell play in the Red and Blue.

Let’s have a big win tomorrow Dees, please kick straight, a few girls to recapture some form and let it be a springboard for the rest of the season.

    TRAINING: Friday 8th December 2023

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Picket Fence endured the sweltering heat on a windy day out at Casey Fields to bring you the following Preseason Training Report. Blustery day at Casey, Ground NOT OPEN?? and the only other people I saw were one bloke on the far side and another Man and Woman also watching around the south Goals, had a small pair of Binoculars but looking through the fence was problematic.

    BACK TO BASE CAMP by Meggs

    Congratulations to the Brisbane Lions.   Undefeated in all 6 matches against the top teams (North Melbourne, Adelaide, Geelong, and Melbourne). They are worthy winners of the 2023 AFLW premiership.   Our ambition for a Season 8 back-to-back premiership was derailed.   In round 6 Adelaide spilled the beans on the template to outplay us. From there news spread fast to other top teams who applied similar intense physical pressure at the source which crushed our gameplan to execute vi

    PODCAST: Jason Taylor Interview

    I'm interviewing the Melbourne Football Club Recruitment Manager Jason Taylor early next week on the Demonland Podcast. I'll be asking him about moving up the draft order, our new recruits (both Draftees and Trades), Daniel Curtin, our recent recruits who have yet to play a senior game, who he thinks will be the next Judd McVee and more. If you have any further questions let me know below and I'll see if I can squeeze them in. I will release the podcast either Monday or Tuesday.

    TOO LITTLE TOO LATE by Meggs

    It was a hot afternoon at IKON where the ferocious Cats came to play, had read the manual on how to beat us and the Demons were unable to match them for the first three quarters.     With physical pressure, they took the game on with relative ease and though our resistance seemed better than the previous two weeks it was still not good enough.     Within the opening minute, Kate Hore marks within range, but her shot was a miss-kick, like a fat iron, and it kinda set a flat tone f

    TURNAROUND by Meggs

    Following successive comprehensive defeats by fellow Top Four heavyweights the Demons play down a division this Sunday against the highly promising Cats.     Strangely, no games against the Cats for five seasons and now we play them twice in one season.     With the blueprint on how to defeat the Dees available on the dark web the real question is, will we crumble again under the finals pressure cooker or will we rediscover our #DemonSpirit and execute a turnaround?   Mak

    THE SECRET IS OUT by Meggs

    We were expecting that after last week’s comprehensive defeat by Brisbane, our coach Mick Stinear would have his charges coming out breathing finals fire. Instead, it was North who had the aggression, the numbers, who blocked our scoring avenues and rendered us impotent, unable to match the Kangas during any phase of the match.   Darren Crocker, the North coach, later highlighted that how to beat Melbourne is no secret following recent losses to Adelaide and Brisbane and now North.
