l have this belive that we can win on sunday.

is it becouse neitz or just hope that we have to win one soon.

2 weeks ago l thought that we would not win a game till round 9 againts the roos.

after tonights game the roos dont look like the easy beat team of 2 weeks ago.

lets just look at the next few games

PORT

BULLDOGS

EAGLES

ROOS

CROWS

COLLINGWOOD

wear do you think we can win our first game and who is the weakest team among these teams.

this will take us to the half way point .

why do l ask becouse something inside me thinks we could still make a big dent this year.

and blood the rest of our young and get ready for one BIG 2008

 

collingwood looms as our best chance (if we lose today) simply because we should have robbo, wheels, chooka back

but then again i wuldnt be surprised to see us beat west coast and then go 1-12 or something like that after it :P

 

Hopefully we will win at least one of those games.

Our problem is that it will take the players with the longer term injuries longer to get form and fitness. Then the team has to 'gel' together and recapture that winning feeling.

If we are zip 9 or 1 8 then i would say the club would definetly start planning for 2008. Play the kids and just let the coaching panel coach as best it can and maybe try a few things that you would not do if vying for a spot in the 8.

We'll win today.

I went to Hawthorn vs Essendon yesterday (god we could do with a Buddy Franklin, he was on fire) and was mulling at the train station in my Dees jacket surrounded by Bombers when i decided to get out of the rain and buy a packet of chips, and lo and behold, there was a little toy card in it.

Ronald Dee-Man.

It's a sign.


Chooks, a classy big man is exactly what we need. With this devastating run a injuries we may get a draft pick which will enable us to get a big player who can replace Neitz or White down the track.

Not as silly as some who put $50 on Melbourne today....

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
