The lions are well down the list of my most disliked teams. I despise Zorko though.

Same. I hate Zorko for what he did to Petts round 23 last year. I also hate Lincoln McCarthy for carrying on the taunting two weeks later, especially since that loss to them meant our campaign had ended. 😠

Down from NSW for my fourth interstate trip. currently on 2 wins and 1 loss, hoping to add to the win column.

I'm feeling good vibes about Kozzie tonight. Performs well against the Lions, in fact he's kicked more goals on them than any other team.

Disagree. My take is, much like the Pies match, this is a target game for us. Meaning we will have freshened up, and even with a six day break, will be running over the ground better than we have

Not a betting man. Does the Lions being favourites hurt our chances of winning or is it totally irrelevant?

Irrelevant

On the tram down St Kilda Rd. Any decent food in the walk from Fed Square through Birrarung?

Not really, best bet is the overpriced food trucks outside the ground

New York Minute burgers, on the Forum side of Flinders Street opposite Fed Square, 10 buck burgers and great chips.

So no sudden outs for the Dees? Then it was a massive plunge on the Lions probably for the betting to move that suddenly.

For those who like omens I will be hopping on the Glen Waverley line. The last time I traveled to the match on this line we beat the Lions on a Friday night. That night we also had a ruckman go solo and he had blinder.

We like that omen ❤️💙

I dont bet much but i enjoy it more than tipping. I work with a guy who has a leg of all sorts of sports into his wekend bets. Soccer, NRL, Tennis, he has plenty but he knows I think it is a problem. I told him today I used his name and password to ban him from gambling online in all betting sites in Australia. For his own good.

I had him going for a minute or two. He was aghast.

Love your omen but just wish you had taken the train to the finals last year as well.

I did - Glen Waverley line as well. It didn't help. I'm thinking it's probably not a factor in team performance -same as the odds.

Never traveled on that line during finals. Couldn’t risk it on a different variable.

Oof! Now we know why the Lions odds shortened so much.

Gil must have someone else lined up for 4th.

Lever practising goal kicking pre match. what would D Barrett say 😂😂😂

 and it’s freezing

 and at the moment, more seagulls than fans…

Would not surprise me if there were as many Lion fans at the G as the MFC tonight. Freezing night, we are in poor form and plenty of snow at Bulla. Sorry could not help myself.

I'd rather hear what D Bennett has to say.

    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.
