leaving aside all the pro-filth sentiments in the media and afl, and looking at at it objectively, you would have to say that the filth had a very large dose of luck to even be in the gf with finals w

From a long way out I thought this was our year. 

I was so confident we would be in the GF I booked a city hotel for this weekend.  To enjoy the festivities, see the city awash with red and blue and make up for missing the fanfare in 2021. 

I'm still in disbelief that we aren't at the G today. 

I truly believe we should be there and my confidence wasn't misplaced; there was no way to predict the impact of thuggery and our appalling goal kicking.

As it is now not a Coll vs Carl game I will watch it cosseted as it were at the home of Dees supporting friends.

Having to barrack for Daniher and Zorko is rather sickening but there is no other way.

Go Roy boys!!!!

I should be on my fifth coffee, third Red Bull and tenth cigarette by now, having not slept a wink last night.

This should be a GameDay thread.

Dane Zorko- all will be forgiven and forgotten (for making Harry cry) if you do two things: take Maynard down, and get your team on the podium.

I’LL GET YOUR FACE TATTOOED ON MY PERSON IF YOU CAN DO THIS!

Really could have been us playing today. An in form Melksham was a huge loss. Not playing Grundy for whatever reason didn't help. Tmac was a poor compromise and I won't talk about the incident here.

Pies are an average side that were very lucky to beat us and just scraped in against the Giants who played their third interstate final in a row. After a six day break. Hmmmm.

Like so many others my interest is to see pies get smashed and a certain player get a taste of his own irresponsible and very dangerous footy acts so as to stop them happening to others again. Because the afl won't stop them, someone else should.

We were not the best side this year. We finished 4th for a reason. KPF injuries the biggest factor no question about that. Bad luck but there you go.

Could still have one either of those finals but if you can't kick the ball between the big sticks and score more than the opposition, then you are not the better team. We do not deserve to be in today's final because our goal kicking was putrid.

Beautiful day. Off to the park with the kids and the dog for a while. Hosting a BBQ to watch the game. All set and ready to go.

Lions will win. 2 relatively straight forward finals (reminds me of us in 21). Forwards humming. Pies have not been in particularly good form for a couple of months. McStay out a big loss for them.

Lions by 35 points I reckon. I'll enjoy the looks of anguish on the pies supporters faces.

The only way I see Brisbane losing is if they do a Melbourne and sheet the bed on the big stage at the "G".

I’m actually worried that Andrew’s goes to Mihocek, and Cox has a field day on Gardner.  It would be my worst nightmare.  But Macrae is astute and will be working out how to exploit Brisbanes lack of a second fit tall defender.

Never been more uninterested in a GF before.

The thought of either Cox and Maynard or Daniher and Hipwood being premiership players just doesn’t sit well with me, sadly it’s only a matter of time. 

This year we’ve been constantly reminded that Nick Daicos is the best player in the game and Harris Andrews is the games best defender. 
 

A Brownlow medal count where 14 average touches gets you 3 votes and 42 touches and 2 goals gets you none.

The umpiring / goal review system at an all time low.

The tribunal system clearly broken. 

Two of my best mates, both Collingwood supporters (one at the game today) telling me telling me this week that we (the Dees) were the better team in both our finals and should of win them both does little to comfort me.

Throughout the year I have as many on here have invested so much time & money into watching our club, betting, SC and being on here only to be left so disappointed not only by our club but the game as a whole.

Having said all of that, [censored] you Maynard, Carn the Lions.

Any DL posters heading to the game today?

Can’t wait for the game and hoping the karma bus pays Maynard a visit, one way or another. I don’t hope he gets hurt, I just hope he has a stinker of a game and is one of the main reasons they lose.

Hopefully next year I’ll be cheering on the red and the blue rather than being a neutral in the crowd.

The media's orgasmic response to the filth in a granny is strange. One would think it was 57 years since their last and not a paltry 13.

Watch the filth fans boo Neale today. Like it was his fault.

Dirty club. Dishonest players. Filthy fans.

One can only hope they lose today.

A small degree of joy in that at least.

Watch the umps try and spoil it though.

    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.
