Dutchie will probably get the job on Darcy.

Whats wrong with PJ playing on Darcy?

Does the Bulldogs play both Minson and Street? That is the only reason I can see for Holland coming in.

For some reason selection is always disappointing.

more to the point how does ward get a game?

just when i thought things were looking up

tempted not to go now

I agree. Ward in the starting 18? He is in purely for the run factor.

THE BULLDOGS ARE A GOOD RUNNING TEAM. SO LETS PLAY A BLOKE THAT CAN RUN (BUT CAN'T DO MUCH ELSE)! - The thought that went through Daniher's head this week.

Neale, the Bulldogs can run, but they also have the skills to hit targets!

Ward is not the answer. Why does our coach insist on playing a team to 'match' the opposition's strengths? Why can't we pick our best team and let them 'match' us?!

considering that P.Johnson, N. Jones and L.Dunn and 100% certainties to play...

the final spot will come down to one of Warnock, Holland, Frawley and Pickett...

if they decide to go for the extra tall, then it will be extremely interesting to see who of Warnock, Frawley or Holland is favoured to playing as the extra tall defender. If they go the extra tall i suggest it will be holland. If not, then obviously pickett remains in the team...

it just goes to show how much they rate frawley that he was named in the team without even playing a senior game for the zebras and being concussed during his first hitout last week. he was a certain round one starter pre-season and impressed much during preseason, so they must rate this kid...

(though while saying that, Warnock was extremely highly rated 2 seasons ago when he was named to play his first match for the club coming back from a 6 week lay-off and hadnt played a match from the reserves even to that stage... and he didnt turn out too special so...)

Such a bummer about Ricky! :(

I will be furious if Ward gets a run. Hopefully it's a straight swap, Green for Petterd.

Frawley is close, but I don't think they'll debut him after half a game in the VFL reserves. Maybe another week or two.

So I just saw Ward is in the starting 18.

I know that with Petterd, Wheels and Bartram out, we are missing that drive out of the backline, but given that Ward is Mr.Unaccountable, and given that he can't kick, wouldn't it be worth trying Buckley in the back pocket?

Does he have a single defensive bone in his body? Who knows. Is it worth finding out since we're 0-6 and no chance? Absolutely.

Hell, give me Bizzell over Ward!

Now that my rant is over, I'm going to assume that Holland, Pickett and Frawley will miss out.

Clearly Jones, PJ and Dunn are needed, and lets hope that Warnock is given another game.

i find it very strange that they would name frawley on the bench for the afl side after playing only half a game in the sandy reserves in which he got a broken nose, apparently a concussion and the team got belted. sounds like the treatment reserved for an established star. either they rate him very highly or they think someone won't get up and he is the cover. they won't drop pickett. so i think someone will pull out of the 18...

Unfortuantely very true...... maybe Neale and boyz might want to pay attention to this !! from both perspectives, one to emulate, second to stop them. Something that was almost poetic about the Dees has cetainly gone awol for some time..i.e accurate and meaningful disposal, hopefully to return soon :-)

Wheres biz, why is ward there? Holland good choice i recon to play on darcy. Bit worrying seing Jones on the bench, sure hell play but still. Warnock shouldnt get another gig...frawley should but i dont think he will. I recon Moloney will be a late withdrawel personally due to his OP and not risking him on the TD surface. My prediction of thoes Moloney wont play - Jones starting on with P.Johnson, Dunn, Holland, Pickett on bench. Love to see James get a gig, highly unlikely tho

Hmmm..Ward in the team again :wacko: . Its a pity about Petterd. I'm not sure whether Bizzel will be any better than Ward, The game has become to quick for him i think. Maybe if he was to play as the third tall behind carroll and Rivers i could understand.

I imagine the Danners isn't playing Newton because he has only p[layed two good games in a row. A few more and he may get a go. Buckley was average on the weekend so thats why he isn't getting a run. Its gonna be a tough game, even tougher with the inept disposal skills of Brown and Ward in the backline.

i hope Newton isn't the new steven armstrong...

armstrong played awesome in sandy every week and when he got picked he got 5 minutes game time only to dropped back down.

lets be honest, if you want to play in danihers team he has to like you

    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
