NON-MFC: Round 05



Recommended Posts

Wouldn't be surprised if Bevo wasn't coaching next week. He needs to go some kind of spiritual retreat or something. Not be coaching.

This Bulldog team, despite having a horrible backline, has way too much talent in the midfield and up forward to be this shizen. Bevo needs to go. Or stay. I don’t really care to be honest. 

But they are not that Talented…

Bontempelli has talent, everyone else is way below his standards

Pretty much the whole league is below the Bont's talent

Incorrect. Bont, Libba and McRae (why is he in the VFL) plus English is an A midfield. Inside 50 they have JUH, Naughton and Weightman. Plus Dale is excellent at half back. 
They have a list good enough to not lose to Essendon. End of story.

When have they been in the Top 4?

You are listening to the Media, who have this elevated opinion of the Footscray Midfield. They are continually wrong 

The Bulldog Midfield is the epitome of Downhill Skier. 
look at what we did to them in ‘21. Absolutely Tore them to shreds without a wimper, and what has happened since then?

Bevo should resign on Monday 

i would take Bont and JUH

Naughton is a fraud. 7 years. What a joke

Most definitely underachieving for the list they have. Bevo has just been there too long. He and the Doggies need a change.

This situation with Liberatore collapsing towards the end of the game is very interesting. He and the club are claiming it was a tweaked ankle, but the vision clearly shows him being very groggy, and then collapsing into the ground. Parish was clearly concerned about him, as was Duryea. He took 2 hard knocks in the last quarter.

Surely the independent AFL doctor needs to investigate that.

Bevo has never finished top 4 at the end of H&A. 

Their defense has never been good enough to finish top 4 and that’s the truth. A strong defense can make up for lackluster performances, which every side has during the season. Hell we got destroyed on Thursday night but we still kept our opponent to under 100 points. 
 

Having said that, they’re good enough to make the 8, but I doubt they will.

Well that’s the Dogs Finished 

Beveridge should walk 

Get JUH at the end of the Season 

Bevo is a very overated coach! 1 extremely flukey premiership, not a great media performer either, footascray almost cooked!

There will be a mass exodus from the Dogs if they keep losing this year. 
This is a Club who lost a home game to Meth Coke last year

Just seen the libba footage and bevo said he tweaked his ankle and lost balance, not a chance you don’t fall like a stone face 1st into the turf like that from an ankle, AFL Should be investigating this 1

I tried to post this last night but for some reason it was on hold.

I did t watch one second of the Dogs vDrugs game but seriously when is the blowtorch from the media going to focus on Beveridge and the Footscray “culture”??

Essendon Fans Blaming Umpires page on FB a bit redundant at the moment. They are getting a Carlton like run.

Bevo gets off light as so many ex Dogs in the media.

The defence saved our arzes so often through the middle of the season during 2021 it wasn't funny.

Didn't realise this. No way he is still coaching if they don't win in 2016.

    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
