Casey are still on top of the ladder undefeated while Brisbane are second having just beating Sandy by 25 points so this should be a cracker of a game. Game starts at 11:35am on Saturday at Moret

Nice that the whole squad can travel to Queensland together.

Why would he think his career is done at 25 and with another year on his contract? Last week he was outstanding in tough conditions, clearly the best tall KPP on the ground.  I can’t believe

Really hope Blake Howes plays well today.

He is an exciting prospect for the Demons!

Every year sime Demonlanders are creaming their daks for a recruit that hasn't actually done anything. It used to be Rosman now its Howes.

Might be an idea to wait until he's actually played some decent footy.

He's been injured most of the season. I personally think he's got great attributes and was stoked that he fell to us in the draft. Sure he's not proven yet but I'm excited with what I'm seeing so far.

Casey have set themselves a fair challenge but do seem to have the wind in the last.

If they crack in and win some clearances and keep it simple going forward they’ll be a chance. 

The ball movement has been a disaster all game with forwards looking for easy kicks and backs/mids messing around with it

Love this commentator...

On a par with Brian Taylor as far as doctorship goes...Brisbane player down with what is clearly a knee/leg problem and calls it a shoulder as the runners are dragging him up by the arms.

Said, "down with cramp", they stopped play and it was in the rib area.

Likes hearing his own voice, goes off subject, baracks and when dees have the play, he tells a story.

Also a mathematical genius!

Judd McVee getting a lot of it. Anyone watching notice how he is playing? Good disposal?

Fair, but the game at the start of the final qtr is really messy, with Casey all-at-sea with teamwork deficits and little run and drive. Their record is great for this season, so we cannot complain. However, they are down on competitiveness today; Brisbane are not far ahead, also without much drive - just making space up the ground to keep them in the lead. Some of our key players are down today, not making defensive or midfield in-roads with the ball. It is good, however, to again link names with players and possible potentials.

Weideman has been poor at best. Looks like a man who knows his career is done

Not even making it to a contest. Repetitively.

    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
