Chapman and Cox are defenders, Cox was in the AA squad in 2022.

They are both better than Pearce, as is Luke Ryan. At full strength they are a strong defence and one which I think most people don’t appreciate. 

Yep, forgot cox was a defender. And as you say a really good one too.

I'm obviously in the not appreciating how strong their defence is. I'll reassess.

Their start proves to me once again that I was right all along, and they are a middle of the road side who snatched a flag via umpiring bias, AFL help, vile fans and a piece of [censored] thug who too

West Coast are an absolute joke of a club. Long may it last! They won’t recover from this easily, we know better than most. Gaff, Yeo, Darling, McGovern etc will be gone soon and then what?

Then Tassie get all the picks. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch

It really would be great to see West Coast down the bottom for another decade.

Gotta stop watching Gws games and lamenting the loss of Hogan and Bedford.

Hogan gave us May and it worked out very well for us. 
I’m genuinely happy for Hogan. It was never going to work out for him at Melbourne. Nothing worth lamenting.

Cheers Jaded. Yea same here with Jesse. He had some rough things go on and he'd finally found some great form at Gws. He's a genuine good bloke of AFL. I still smile at his run up.

This.

I still love Jesse - don't feel any bad vibes about him. We did all we could - he end up at flogmantle were all (most) good footballers go to die. Good on GW$ - took a punt that's paying off handsomely. They must be doing something right up there. My man-crush on Jesse will lives on.

Bombers putting up a decent fight tonight but Swans will run it out in the last. 

Ben McKay is possibly the most overpaid footballer in AFL history. VFL standard yet on over 700k a year!

Scully? Chris Dawes? Diamonds Tilbrook.

Was one of my favourite players at MFC. And yea just because he's doing well at Gws doesn't necessarily mean he be crushing it if still with us. I hope he goes close to winning the Coleman. (Go Fritta).

What do we all think about the Peter Wright incident? For me it's Maynard all over again, and should be 3-4 weeks. An attempted spoil or attempted mark is no longer either of those things when it ends up as a bump to the head.

Here's the vision:

Ordinarily I’d agree, but I feel so bad for Jayden. He’ll always be a Dee to me. And it’s not like he’s ever far from my mind: I have a giant cardboard cutout of him that I see every time I enter my house. 😭

I agree with Sam Landsberger…

Yes I like Jayden and feel sorry for him he’s ended up at West Coast. Not sure how long his contract is but hopefully he can keep his form up and request a trade out of the dump that is West Coast.

    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
