Narrm return to the MCG to take on Walyalup who in the corresponding match last season broke the Demon's 17 game winning streak which was their first of three losses in a row. The Dees will need to win to stay in the Top 4.GameDayRd112023.png

We’ve responded well after each loss this season. Keen to see the midfield dynamic without Oliver over the next couple of weeks.

A great start time for a game, weather should be fine and hoping a lot of us turn up to support the boys.

With Collingwood and Geelong around the corner, this is an absolute non negotiable must win game of footy.

I'm more confident against Geelong than Freo tbh.

I have a feeling that Viney will have a huge, match winning game today. Without Oliver it just seems set up for the unleashing of our ballistic missile!!

Not near as confident about this one as I was 3 weeks ago. Freo haven’t beaten anyone of note (Geelong had no midfield) but they’re confidence is up, and they are playing better. They’re moving the ball quicker and their forwards have found some form.

Clarry a massive out but Walters is an important player for them as well.

The forecast is a clear, sunny 15 degrees. Perfect for footy. It’s been a while since we had a Saturday afternoon game at the G so I’m really looking forward to this one.

We won’t have it all our own way, but I reckon Fritta will do the business for us.

Dees by 20 points

He might go better without him and thrive on the responsibility.

He’s been less influential since Hunter’s joined us. His possessions have gone down from 22 to 19 a game and he’s on track for just a 4 goal season, down from 13 in both 2021 and 2022.

The last 3 weeks he’s average just 16 touches and laid only 1 tackle.

Circumstances force me to take a circuitous route to the G today and, consequently, I shall be leaving one of The Manor's fleet at Wallan Railway Station. No doubt it will be stolen and I shall have to seek an alternative means of transportation in the pm.

However, my mood will not be dampened as I will have witnessed a comprehensive Dees victory.

Even with Clarrie MIA, I have no concerns about our ability to cover Freo in all respects. 

We have flag aspirations. We must finish top 4 or , better still, top 2.

The second half of the season is near and dropping games to sides below you on the ladder simply cannot be allowed.

I doubt other clubs care less about our name change. Collingwood will likely hit us on KB . They usually do .

Naarm wont change anything.

 

 

Haven't checked the stats yet, but I'd wager we have a better KB  record than QB.

We've got today. I keep backing Kozzie for a big day out. It's going to be today. Us by 41.

I love the Narrm concept and that we led the league with this… but we have a [censored] record with that as our name. Have Narrm won a game yet? MFCSS rising … this is big game. 

We beat Norf in rnd 10 2022 as Narrm

We’ll have a a comfortable win today and Demonland won’t go into Chernobyl-level melts. But should we in fact lose, I’ll see y’all around about the middle of next week when everyone’s had a chance to calm the [censored] down. But not on Thursday since the aftershocks will be felt again once selection is announced. 😁

GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

Exactly. Some DL posters think a loss to Freo ends our season, but fail to take into account that WE ARE CAPABLE OF UPSET WINS AWAY or as UNDERDOGS too.

Wonder whether he’ll stay on the one side of the ground all day like he was doing until this year?

He had a great game against Freo in Rd 1 2021 at the G. Kicked a lovely banana goal iirc. Hoping he can get back to that kind of form because he's been well down this year.

Should win today.

I would like to see McDonald really have a presence today. I just remember Brown and Weideman were non existent last time we played them at the G. I'm going to back him in for a big one today.

Petracca and Viney to really stand up and show that no Oliver, no worries.

Max had an absolute stinker. Rarely does this two weeks in a row.

Kozzie to get back into form starting today.

Won't be watching the footy as I'll be kicking the dew off at 2pm so hoping for some good news once I open my phone again at 4:45pm.

    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.

    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
