Whose punting tonight?

I'm on the weagles !

My reasons are twofold . Firstly, I hope to add to The Manor's coffers but , more importantly, I'd love to see Essendrug suffer further humiliation.

Got some on the dogs . Eagles and Essendon to close to call.

Looking at it with my red and blue shaded glasses

Bulldogs (simply to keep them in the hunt so they can do damage)

West Coast (LJ)

Freo (positions 1 and 2 are much the same and this will take the Blues out of the hunt for those spots)

Geelong v Tigers (draw please)

Saints

North ( but Crows will win)

GWS ( who could barrack for the Pies unless you had to)

Port v Suns (neutral)

Assuming we keep our winning mojo it will be interesting to see which Victorian team snatches fourth

Geez the Dogs look bad.  Body language from coach awful.

Maybe we re ally did destroy their collective minds in September 2021.

Dogs get such a dream run from the umps it makes me sick. Libba rips Mitchell’s head off when he doesn’t have the ball and they just let him. Centre bounce he blatantly throws it and they let him.

[censored] I hate the Dogs. Worst club in the league by some margin.

I’m switching off. I hate the Dogs so much it’s ruining my night seeing them come back haha

Belting them in the grand final will forever be my best football memory. Nothing will ever top that other than belting them again in a granny by even more.

[censored] scum.

If the Hawks could be a bit cleaner with their disposal, they would be well in front. Their pressure has been pretty good.

I refuse to barrack for Hawthorn unless they are playing Dons or Blues, or it impacts us directly. But seeing the free kick count at 9-2, I hope they smash the Dogs. If that McCrae drops his knees one more time to get a high tackle free kick I'm going to spew.

That’s ok, Hawks just need to regroup. They’ve been the better team just lacking some composure at crucial times which got the Dogs some cheapies. Can still win this.

The fawning over the Dogs by the commentators is yuk.

    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.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
