Well here we are

0-7

Nasty indeed

There coud not be a worse time to face the best team in the comp on their home turf. But atleast the spirit is there. We are having a dip. Players are starting to return from injury. Davey is in fine form. Sylvia is arriving. Dunn is showing what he is capable of.

But boy are the Eagles good

Judd. Kerr. Cox. Hunter. Wirrpunda. Glass. So many great players. So well coached.

The feeling around town is that the winless Demons could pull off a big upset over in the West.

But lets be realistic.

West Coast are West Coast. Melbourne are Melbourne.

This game is going to get ugly. The Demons will be within 5 goals at 3 quarter time, before the likes of Judd and Kerr run riot.

West Coast will pile on 11 goals to 1 in the final stanza. And will waltz home by a lazy 92 points.

I actually thought Melbourne would go alright this week, but you make so many valid points. You've convinced me. I think you might be on the money this week Y_M.

Although West Coast don't tend to smash teams too often by massive margins.

What an absolute crock Y_M.

I have it on good authority that on Robbo's return this week, he is pencilled in to kick 12.

I have a very reliable source telling me that Judd has gathered the Eagles' leadership group and put a very emotional plea to let his future club win their first game for the season.

Kerr has decided to pull out with some 'soreness' and Judd will 'limp' off after the first bounce, not to return for the rest of the day.

As far as I understand it, Cox was thrilled to see PJ's 'coming of age' game last week, and he promised Judd to 'coach' PJ throughout the 4 quarters. I've been told that PJ will take 16 contested marks and kick 4 goals for best on field performance.

Bate is set to star with 43 possessions and our goal to goal line delivery will be the quickest recorded in AFL history.

Apparently an Eagles club email has gone out to all members asking that they don't show up, to give the Demons a 'home game advantage'.

The entire Eagles club is behind Judd's plea to give the Demons every advantage possible on the day, to win their first game of the year.

Everyone here at Demonland should relax and feel confident for the weekend.

It's a guaranteed win.

Word around town is that a B-double of 35,000 Melbourne jumpers personally signed by Paul Johnson left the MCG this morning after massive orders in the west. It'll be a sea of red and blue on Sunday.

I hear Judd wants to thump us by 150 points so we can offer the eagles a good draft pick for his trade to the Dees.

well you heard wrong. :angry:

My source is very very reliable.

Fire Up and Kick Back.

If Judd has his way, the Demons will win and win comfortably.

You'd have Warnock, Ward and Godfrey in a winnable side over Moloney?????????????

Well, if the great Y_M thinks we'll lose, we're an absolute certainty to win.

NO Jaded, we'll win coz I have a very very reliable source that says we'll win.

Geez, I don't understand why people here aren't taking my very very reliable source seriously!

Moloney is the better player without a doubt. If McLean was to play I think Moloney will miss. He is not right.

If McLean doesn't get up, Moloney will be selected.

    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
