Gawn - had little influence and wanted to continue to tap the ball down to his feet where the swans win the clearances!🤔

Viney - disappeared after first… fumbled too much and lost his feet often 🤔

Oliver - inspirational and prolific… bloody champion… kept us in the match then wore the blood and bandages of a warrior   ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Petracca - injured before injury…🚑 yes injured … but could have kicked four goals and his lack of confidence in goalkicking is very very odd 🤮

Jackson - head was elsewhere … ffs  … he’s a champion then he’s a spud  … no footy intelligence and fumbled 🥔🥔🥔

Brown - was absolutely useless … soft tonight 🥔🥔🥔🥔

Langdon - disappeared after first… great start then went wider and wider ⭐️

Spargo - disappeared after first… pushed aside easily … kicked one great pass and three absolute dogs 💩

Brayshaw - limited by injury… love him but tonight was poor 💩

Pickett - a total failure … omg lost total awareness and was chasing tails 🥔🥔

May - one fateful mistake BUT overall was a champion  We would have been destroyed without him ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Petty - seemingly no mistakes… bloody champion and gave 100%! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fritsch - ten minute game … was dangerous but his one miss was very poor from 25 metres out ⭐️⭐️

Hunt - poor under pressure … but at least tackles and ran and did a lot very well  👍🏻

Neal-Bullen - tried but failed… EMBARRASSING AND JUST AWFUL … new captain fumbles 🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔6-star spud tonight award winner 

Harmes - disposal was poor and tried and failed and fumbled and looked confused 💩

Hibberd - needed sick bed.. bloody gave 100% and won his battles ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sparrow - had little involvement … another NEARLY NIGHT … one good goal … he fumbles were costly 🥔

Salem - seemingly avoided pressure and looked unfit on occasion  strange to think he was nearly BOG in “21 GF … now could be dropped … terrible left foot helicopter kicks 💩

Melksham - the bad Melkshy… from gold to dog-shizzen …. 3 costly missed shots when usually reliable  🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔

Rivers - was rarely sighted- tried but failed but tried 🧐

Lever - couldn’t get involved-did his best 👍🏻

I haven't seen a replay yet, just got home, but at the game live, it appeared buddy ran at May from a distance and May just put him on his [censored] with a solid bump. The umpire gives a free kick because buddy collapsed and we never really got that momentum back for a period longer than a few minutes after that.

Gawn endless  bad decisions 

May carried the team

Petty is a champ 

Kossie is not Flash ..is not Eddie   is not LJ  ,

Melk 2 vital misses 

Trac  Dusty 80 %

Jackson left for home.

BBB 200cm 100kgs ragdoll 

Salem ok I guess

Sydney organised and committed

MFC  can't stand pressure 

Viney standard setting fumbles

Ollie can't fault him

Harmes round one 2023

Not harsh at all if we persist in playing a guy that gets 13 possesions and one lucky goal then good luck!

Spargo would have had 14 possies and 2 goals, if ANB could pass a footy 20 metres half accurately.

ANB and Melk tonight made Spargo look like Bobby Skilton.

Has Spargo ran over your cat? You have had him in the gun for a while. A lot poorer than him tonight.

Agree a lot were very very poor last night, but other than his good first quarter, he has been very poor for the last 4 games! OK answer me this, who would he get a game with if not with us? He might use the ball well, but is slow, doesnt get it enough, nor hit the scoreboard enough. Sorry but he was a lucky premiership player last year, but as an AFL standard forward just doesn't cut it for me. Just my opinion of course!

If thats a solid bump. The game is dead.

Spot on Mr.Leg. what about our second champion ruckman. Living off a quarter in a game nearly 12 months ago.

Sparrow was good. May absolutely killed Franklin and you pick on one error?

And it wasn’t even a f$&@ing error!!

Did nobody here see the footage of Buddy taking a dive after receiving the lightest of elbows to his back?

Even the commentators said there was nothing in it. 

I feel like I’m going insane reading so many comments about how May “made a mistake”. 

He played a blinder, and as far as I’m concerned made ZERO mistakes.

The real melksham.

Foolish once.

Fool us twice.

But now your out and I wouldn't give another year.

Got a few touches late in the game and couldn't kick straight fro 20 odd m out.

Limited fwd pressure ie tackles.

No goals....one tackle.

And Bbb ...one goal....zero tackles.

Kozzie....no Gail's one tackle.

No forward pressure from these blokes at all.

Just lazy. Sad with so much to gain.

Dogga played like Franklin....already checked out.

Thanks Oliver and May for caring.

At least when Charlie gets the ball he can deliver to a teammate - if you haven’t noticed one of greatest flaws when we play poorly is an inability to connect with our forwards - Spargo is one of the few that can do this well consistently 

He isn’t perfect and I would love to see more penetration in his kicking but he will continue to play until we find others that are better at finding teammates in F50

    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
