We cannot expect our team to perform when the supporters arent either. Soon as the going gets tough our supporters disappear and start calling for Daniher's blood. Instead everyone should stop the finger pointing and get out and support the team. The lack of supporters in the game against Fremantle was a complete embarassment, it was only round 3 for goodness sakes and already everyone has run screaming in the opposite direction. Show some belief, odds on they will lose on Sunday so what, go and support them, scream, yell do what you have to do, just because their form is poor doesnt mean ours has to be as well.

Mate, I only travel to Melbourne to watch us play our fellow Victorian teams....

There is nothing better than staying here in Adelaide and going down to the pub in Alberton and drinking amongst the Port Adelaide filth! There is a certain adrenaline rush one gets when sitting amongst a bunch of dole-bludging, West End drinking Power supporters whilst wearing my beloved Red 'n Blue and enjoying an ice cold VB!!!

You can tell me I'm not a real suporter for not travelling, but I know the truth!! I pay my premium membership each and every year and travel to Melbourne when I'm not working but I can assure you that I will enjoy the match on Sunday regardless of whether we win or lose and I won't have to be at a silent MCG full of 25 Port supporters and a bunch of Melbourne fans with their hands under their bums to keep warm :)

Mate, i would think that most interstate supporters are excluded from this plea to Dees supporters.

Most of us would like to think that when the chips are down, the team looks to it's supporters for inspiration. If that IS the case than it's no wonder we lost to Freo. We need every able Melbourne supporter (bandwagon or not) to get down to the G this Sunday and help the boys get over the line. Neitz should be back this week and that will bring back half the leadership group of Melbourne, not to mention one of our best Full Forwards of all time.

I will be there, and i hope there'll be much more than 16,000 as well.

I personally would like to think that when the chips are down the team looks deep within themselves and drags out whatever passion they have for the colours they wear and plays like a bunch of blokes willing to give 110% everytime they step onto the ground (that goes for training as well as games)

If the Melbourne players are looking to their supporters for inspiration, then it is no wonder we haven't won a flag for over 40 years!!

I will be there, and i hope there'll be much more than 16,000 as well.

Great to see you will be there supporting the boys through a tough time, but there will be no more than 19,000 there and 25% of them will be Port supporters.... So make sure you and the other Red 'n Blue Army folk make plenty of noise!

I am not being negative, just realistic :(

I wish i could come on sunday and support the boys- but as being an interstate supporter i cant go, even though i have a desire to visit melbourne. But i support the boys any time i can. Although i could not go to the game last saturday due to not being very well, i at least listened and watched the game on TV.

    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.
