Watched the while game and gave an assessment on some of the players. Mitch Brown: That was some performance.  He could have easily kicked 9 but missed a few gettable shots as well. He seriously

I think if Melksham has a good game, he might replace Sparrow. Tommy hasn’t had the best two weeks and I think Melksham across half forward still offers good goal scoring power.  Dunstan is the other key player who’s probably going to get a chance at promotion.

Two things from this game.

1. Umpiring is genuinely horrific. 

2. Our VFL listed players really aren't much chop. They're the ones butchering the ball easily. Bryce Milford is the only one worth keeping an eye out as a potential AFL spot.

Woey looks good. Milford hasn’t done much.

I am loving having access to VFL live. I finally get a chance to see the AFL listed players building form. 

Sandringham looking bog ordinary all over the ground.

I am fan of the Weid but he is looking below par today. Constantly out of position or dropping marks that only he gets to.

Bedford not getting heaps of it but looks AFL ready. 

Still working out numbers, personnel etc...

Jimmy Monroe's probably the best player on the ground, but I agree that he lacks the skills to be an AFL player. Disappointing that guys like George Grey  don't get a game when 16 melbourne players are playing.

Van Rooyen looks like a proper footballer

Woewodin can play

Chandler next in line 

Weideman May have played his last game for Melbourne. Would prefer the journeyman Brown to Weid

Weid looks a bit down on confidence. Bedford in our best at half time just needs to tidy up his kicking a bit. Van Rooyen a couple of very good contested marks and 2 goals. Laurie looks like Bowey II coming through. Woewoedin looks very composed with a nice kicking style. playing well as is Howes. Dunstan started to control clearances more as the game went on. another St Kilda gift.

Brown with 3.3

JVR 2.1  how does jvr look? 

 

1/2 time.  Casey up by 6 goals.
Brown is a standout. JVR will be a very very good player.
Woey jnr moves well. Howes also. Good signs.
Daw ok v Ryder. 
Dunstan and Bedford just seem to be poor decision makers.  That’s what let’s them so far.
Munro is Casey heart and soul player. Rips in.
Weid is still too timid in my view. He needs to just demand it and crush anyone in his way to get it. Nice boy still.

Van Rooyen is going to be a great addition for Melbourne. I think you're being a bit tough on Wiedeman. It's the first game of the season but I do think that chest mark he dropped was pretty much inexcusable.

Mitch Brown a CLEAR best on ground so far.

Weideman struggling.

Brown is on the money, reading the incomings very well and towering over the packs. A couple of 'gettable' misses that may well have been converted if he took a longer run-up. Dunstan looks capable but is lacking in explosive pace for a senior role (at the present moment). Woewodin is good value but the 'cramping' of the game, packs and loose ball receives are doing him no favours. We are well ahead at half-time, but need to lift the pace considerably in the second half. There are signs of some good young talent for the Dees - some of these young guys need to experiment with being play-makers in advance of the ball - just like the work of Tracca, Fritta and Clarrie.

Bedford could be a future AFL play-maker, alongside Woey's son. The Weed still looks disinterested, unmotivated, hesitant, seconds behind his role for the team.

    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.
