Only watched the last quarter but looked a drab game 

The last quarter was riveting compared to the first three!

I didn’t stick around to watch the presentation. What were they playing for? The ‘At least we aren’t North Melbourne’ cup?

It's the Trevor Barker-EJ Whitten cup this one. Not the worst touch I guess

BT is a joke 

He took stupidity to another level when he said that the Bulldogs were having a "mini onslaught".

That West player (Rylee... FFS) looks like he has an adult head superimposed on a 15 year old body.

Interesting that the free kick Bulldogs rule was in full force. Worst incident was Bontempelli getting caught and simply dropping the ball ... nothing to see hear, move on. And Hodge saying that was OK. Players like Bontempelli get away with murder.

Saints are terrible. Players like Zac Jones, Crouch, Higgins were terrible recruits. Even Steele has regressed .... no longer an A grader.

His pump up for St Kilda 28 points down with 7 mins left and picking out random people in the crowd he thought were nervous was embarrassing.

St Kilda really comes down to Ryder for me, when he plays and plays well then everyone else looks great. Without him their midfield is a dump.

Higgins was crap tonight.

Need to target Max King when out of contract. His talent being wasted there. 

Not until we get a goal kicking coach.

St Kilda should be called the yoyos. 

Or the Tassie Saints

Damn shame the bulldogs won.  Lose and there was no chance of making the 8 and they could pack up shop.

Now there is some hope of finals for them, they will come out all guns firing next week against us.  Like Geelong they will have revenge on their mind and throw everything at us.

He’s a mistake riddled commentator. 

Channel 7 need to reconsider their premier number 1 caller (Friday night / GF)

We were spoilt with the technically brilliant Bruce and Dennis of the 2012-2016 era.

Have to agree, he was very average but he's now he's just crap and injecting himself too much in it eg. Harping on so much about how he liked the footrace from Pickett. 

Was thinking the other day how much I miss Dennis.

Can't believe I am saying this but I want Blues to beat Cats.

Also obviously we want Swans to be at Dockers.

I would be happy to play our first final at the G against Cats, Blues, Lions or Pies as that would give us our best chance of being in the PF at the G.

Well this is a tough one.

For the optimists you want Carlton and the Swans to win.

For the others it's the reverse.

It's going to be a nerve wracking weekend

PS wins by Adelaide and the Giants would be nice but unlikely

Redleg you have just outed yourself as an optimist according to Diamond_Jim.  I'm bewildered, so I am just going to hope they all beat the living daylights out of each other.

Being called an optimist is strange, as I am pessimistic about our game against Port. Port are basically at full strength and in good form, while we are not in great form and missing 60% of our goal to goal line, including our best player.

    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.

    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
