Finals Superstar

Could be anyone of about 10/12 of our players  May Lever McVee Rivers Viney Lingers Kossie Clarry Gus Trac Gawny ANB ( his recent form and minimal errors have him in best ever status) Fritta Tmac and Sparrow. 

Sorry JVR Hunter Bowser Joel Bill L Hibbo Disco Tommo Spargo. Broody etc. 

No wonder we are one of the favourites with this team all in pretty good form and bl..dy determined. They look mighty hungry also.

If going by what Goody said last night on 360 (that our players are mighty fresh and fit), then its really a hard choice as anyone of them can go nuts. 

For me if i could chose, anyone of ANB, Kozzy or Chin. Reason being, when any one of them fire it means our a forward half game is on and that usually means a W.

Joel Smith will have an important moment for sure.

James Jordon will step up as a late-game sub and provide a valuable boost when a game is tight. Couple of smothers, maybe a run-down tackle on Pendlebury at a crucial moment that results in a 12-point end-to-end turnaround.

I believe in small heroes.

Petracca will step up again. He was looking very determined and dominant in the second half against the Swans. He’s a weapon. It’s like a switch flicked and he was like righto the real stuff starts now, similar to Dusty firing up in finals in years past. 

Might be another Norm Smith coming his way!

With the multiple support structures around him, Petracca is going to explode - unstoppable - mobile - tough - pacey - great vision - deadly sharp-shooter - determined - ahead of the pack. His last few games seem to have been a series of specific and cameo rehearsals for what he is going to do in the finals. Clarrie will also lift, now back into the team.

Would it be nice to have Tmac be the one.

I have a suspicion it will be Fritta.

Kozzie is certainly a wildcard.

Oliver who has missed almost half a season should never be underestimated.

I might as well mention the entire team.

Could easily be a dozen of our players.

Fairytale#1: May winning the Norm and giving his premiership medal to Jake M.

Fairytale#2: Grundy getting a horses-for-courses gig next Thursday, ripping it apart, then taking that form through two more games (Fairytale#2A: The second of those being a Collingwood rematch)

p.s. Thank you, everyone, for not taking up @SPC's offer to nominate players from other clubs. How will anyone be able to qualify anyway?!

p.p.s. The above views do not necessarily reflect the author's residual MFCSS. Go away, QF favouritism!

CHINNY CHIN CHIN CHANDLER!

Look out! He may not be big, but he’s fearless!

Chandler could well go berserk, kicking several goals; he is just as accurate as Fritta, is faster and has a very big engine. He is also a rather reliable target when moving to space, from space and reading the incomings from downfield. He is, WCW, well-built, tough and plays taller on the ground than expected.

Close, my count is potentially 14 MFC players. :-) But they will sacrifice this personal potential in their election to play 'team' footy, bringing every strength to the task of ensuring The Filth's capitulation by the third quarter.

    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
