Last night I was having trouble deciding who I hoped would win. I watched 10 minutes and there he was the thug. Decision fixed. Glad the druggies won.

As a side note, Crisp’s three goals in the first quarter tell you that automatically benching a player after they kick a goal is a deeply overrated coaching trope.

So, we all know that last week the Collingwood cheer squad were so busy concentrating on spelling Quaynor correctly on his milestone banner, they misspelled Isaac… To their credit they m

Heeney just cost hisself a brownlow 

If he doesn’t get suspended for that then I don’t understand. He swung his fist back and hit a player in the head off the ball, which caused him to bleed and leave the ground.

That’s a minimum week easily.

11.16 and losing by 2 points. Who do Sydney think they are, that’s Melbourne-like 😂

Big result at Docklands with the Saints upsetting the Swans

Meanwhile, the Crows who are 8 points down have all the momentum against the Lions at the Gabba in the 3rd.

I feel like this was a half truth…I’m disappointed in you, DJ. You got my hopes up.

Is it true that Hogan wanted to be traded back to Melbourne after the 2020 season, but Goodwin said No?

Anyone could have had him in 2020. He was traded for pick 54.

Where it is better to say we missed was at the end of 2022.

Hogan was given a one year extension in 2021 so was out of contract as the year's end approached. His 2021 form was reasonable but he had injuries (18 goals from 8 games). In August 2022 GWS gave him a two year extension.

I suspect that had we offered him 3 years he would have joined us

I really dislike the Lions. They will do sweet FA in finals if they make it.

They really are insufferable. Such a collection of punchable heads. 
They are the Port of Queensland. Forever doing nothing in finals.

And their fans are clueless morons. That bumpkin song they sing along to.

Feel for Logan McDonald.  Last week he missed the shot and today he wanted to redeem himself and missed again

Yeah. Sort of. But also Sydney supporters have been so arrogant this year. Seeing them start, ever so slightly, to wobble is delightful.

And a reminder - you don’t win flags in June.

    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
