I’m also yelling at the clouds coz I find that guy’s affectation super irritating. IMDb says he’s an actor, I say he’s an over-actor 😁

We may be a club of two WCW. He was waxing lyrical about Cody Weightman, but (as you perfectly noted) his affectation is that adopted if describing the valour of a VC recipient

What will he have left for his ANZAC Day prematch intro? He’s using up all his tickets on matches such as this: 8th vs 13th, and at Marvel (could it be any more uninteresting?)

Omfg. This is bs. No ambiguity… he played on.

I legitimately think that the umpires are so focused on whatever it is headquarters wants each week they forget to umpire the basics. That non play on to Langford, after he ran off the line, was as obvious as the non 50 last night when Daniher threw the ball well over Lever’s head.

7 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

doesn't feel like it's going to be a very defensive game whatsoever

good to watch as a neutral

By “good” you mean “frustrating” right? Bulldogs are fighting an uphill battle.

Dogs getting rolled with the umps, it would be funny Karma if it wasn't Essendon benefiting. 

BTW that was a Mark to JUH, umpires have no feel for the game at all. I liked when there was a bit of the benefit of the doubt in favour of the guy going for the ball. I see alot more not paid than the 80s/90s

Dogs should be 5 goals up and are going to lose, neither team looking good for finals but will trip a few up.

As bad as we were last night at least I felt there was effort and pride not to let it become a smashing. Imagine being a dogs supporter.

Not entirely sure Caleb Daniel's loss of form may be all his own fault. Beveridge has gone from being intuitive to barmy.

Beveridge is the architect of this.
Bailey Dale with the vest, while O’Donnell (who?) on the ground.
Caleb Daniel in the 2’s.
Bont playing a lot down forward despite them already having Darcy, Naughton and Ugle-Hagen down there. Oscar Baker on a wing.
I could go on 

He’s trying to be smart, but instead is being stupid.

So when will the heat be put on bevo. I mean 8 years ago they won a flag and haven't done much since. 

Last week they just fell short of geelong and the dons were pumelled. Essendon cannot be an 8 goal better team, surely.

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.

    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
