Daisy speaks…………and once more she shows how it’s done. Selfless, respectful, just all class. The media can try ignoring her MFC association all they like, but she’s no less a Demon legend than any of our one-club Premiership skippers. And obviously she’s poisoned Mick Stinear with that same class.

Yeah but is he the right coach?

Do you ask that with a heavy heart, though?

Mad Monday celebrations tomorrow just got rowdier and way more raucous. 🤣

Not bragging, except 100% totally bragging I got an invite to Mad Monday, along with @Katrina Dee Fanwho may or may not be back from Brisbane in time. All good if she’s not, I’ll just party hard for both of us. 🍺🥂🍷🤣

Kinda sad that it’s all over. Now that footy is finished for the year, there’s nothing for me to watch.

BTW I loath cricket and soccer

The Brisbane players got closed down. None of their stars stood up. Our players good for 3 quarters. Great coaching, placing players behind the ball in the last, out coached 'em. 

We were desperate for and at every contest. Loved how we kept our feet and put the body between opposition and ball.

Played the game in our forward 50. 

The umpires turned in the last. Amused by the Lion supporters boo's.

Our in and under players controlled it, with some important marks from our spine players to steady the ship.

Great that we ran all day. 

West, Hanks, Gillard, the role players, got it done.

Well done Dees.

We won this against all odds, really. Nothing was in our favour. Nothing was going our way. It almost seemed like a concerted effort by all to stymie everything we did. We were given no help, no advantage and were going into today as massive underdogs, not because of the footy we’re playing but because everything was stacked against us. So this win is even bigger and better than it appears.

So bloody proud of this team. They’re most deserving of a Flag. And… they’ve got one!!!! Awesome rewards for awesome efforts. ❤️💙

Thank you DZ, I will enjoy tomorrow. I may not remember much of it, but I will enjoy it nonetheless. 🙃

Regardless of the result today, Mad Monday was always gonna happen, of course. But geez, celebrating a Premiership with our girls will be memorable for sure.

I was working today so had to rely on SEN’s coverage of the game😱

Whomever  thought Zorko could pass as an eloquent expert comment’s man was obviously high on pickle juice or some other concoction.. he was embarrassingly inept and inappropriate, and seemingly unable to string 2 sensible words together.

I wonder if Old Dee is secretly celebrating the win after sneaking a look at the game.

I hope he did.

Was there a game today NC? I didn't think the season started till March. Oh you mean the girls thing.

As far as shambolic presentation ceremonies go it wasn't a patch on 80 year old A League chairman, Frank Lowy falling off the stage and landing on his head when the Victory won it. They even had a slow motion replay. I like how the other guy's first priority was making sure the trophy was saved.

Daisy ALWAYS has time for the fans. Even having just captained her team in a Premiership match for the ages…

No I didn't watch NC and by the look of the score line it is just as well. I was entertaining my Grand daughters who stayed last night. PS neither are interested in A rules. Oldest is a basketball fanatic.

Westy absolutely stitched up 

Cannot for the life of me believe this. Westy was a cert, I thought. And so did everyone else who was there. Unbelievable.

    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
