Whenever I’m feeling down & need a laugh I know I can always go back & watch this biased peanut give us one of her delusional takes 😆

Haha! That is magnificent 

Cornes is spot on

Richmond are done, they looked stuffed in the last Quarter  totally gassed

Riewoldt and Cotchin cooked

Did you expect anything else? Both clubs have enormous supporter bases. Would have been the same last night of the crowd was 50/50 like tonight. It was more like 80/20

...no i didnt expect anything else.

2 Flags against interstate Clubs, with an incredible run of Home games at The MCG and 1 against the ageing Handbags. 
3 Flags, good luck to them, they are in the cabinet, but I don’t consider it a great Dynasty

Please excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean, to ‘deep six’ a team?

I am glad you asked .  I want to know what Deep Fake means (I don't think it has anything to do with bedroom sports).

Yeah nah, that’s just a regular fake. The Deep Fake is what one might see in one of those ‘questionable’ movies. 😆

Hope I’ve not offended anyone. If I have, totes soz (not soz)

Deepfakes (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) are synthetic media[2] in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. While the act of faking content is not new, deepfakes leverage powerful techniques from machine learning and artificial intelligence to manipulate or generate visual and audio content with a high potential to deceive.

basically just faking audio visual stuff i.e. audio,  photos, video

deep fake specifically referring to the more intensive hi-tech methodologies involving among things artificial intelligence programs (i.e. not simple cut/paste & photoshop)

That one against the handbaggers was a Clayton’s Premiership. Shortened games, shortened season. Someone had to win it in a completely ruined season and the cards fell right for them.

How ridiculous.

They won three flags in four years.

Let's revisit these posts after 2024.

Round 1 signifies very little except renewed hope. 

Tiges looked lethargic, except when  Prestia and Reiwoldt were up and about. I picked them for top 4, and still believe they will make it. Hardwick is a VERY good coach. Cotchin does look gone, Martin will take 4-6 to be back to his best, Grimes playing under pain and duress, Vlaustin out etc...

Carlton looked good in terms of pressure and fightback, winning lots of clearances and contested possession, but their backline is going to be hammered by strong scoring sides like Dees, Lions, Dogs, Port, Geelong. They played well, but no way am I gushing over them.

Keep an eye of for new Bomber, Kaine Baldwin, who was the country’s best key forward prospect back in 2019 but two knee reconstructions and Covid19 left him unwanted and on the sidelines until rookied by Essendon. I thought at the time that he was a bargain pickup  - good luck to him tomorrow night at CHF.

False sense of security.  Jobe Watson noted in the 7 coverage at 3/4 time that given the banged up Tigers midfield, Blues should run over them. They did,  despite Tiges going ok for 3 1/4's.

A class midfield won't let this happen, i.e Dees, Lions, Cats.  Plus no way do the Blues have a premeirship standard defence.

Great to see De Geoy out there

good to know you can allegedly forcibly touch/harrass a woman at a club and beat up her mate who stood for her and not miss a game.  AFL integrity

And a reporter gets stood down for derogatory comment made about a woman

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    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
