We have a bigger problem with the players not showing the desire to push themselves. Judd and Cousins used to run until they were physically sick. The other WCE players took note and the team as a whole became a much harder running group. We dont have our veterans providing such an example.

Fitness and conditioning is the cornerstone. With it you can start to do all sorts of things such as think on the run, without it it becomes the headless chicken thing.

I still think cramping in the 3rd quarter as we were is very poor, I don't care who is in charge Babba whatsit or anybody else for matter.

I hear what you are saying Belze about running the lines etc But if your stuffed, you can't think straight, believe me I know, and running with, is more of a instinctive thing. we saw lots of that, out of position, leaving it up to someone else who was also stuffed, chasing shadows, missing tackles, terrible disposal by foot and by hand, and dodging out of physical contact, it was absolute rout by Hawthorn.They were given the game on a platter.

It was a bad day when Old Norm was sacked by Melbourne Football club, I think we have a version of the Babe Ruth curse on the Boston Red Socks.

Melbourne have never been the same again, save a couple of good but fruitless periods.

The SOxs went 70 odd years with that curse, I only hope we stop the rot sooner than they.

I know what youre on about Demonique...and they did seem rather flatfooted.. but ..and its only my perception of course..its just like they weren't plugged in from the outset. The Hawkers did what they wanted to..and it was as if the Dees were in awe of them..crazy i know !!

It is puzzling that Belz, but I just can't figure it out why they have fallen in such a heap in a short space of time. I know they didn't finish 2006 in winning style falling out of the 4. I feel on that occasion they were worked far too hard in the July.

You can work too hard in training, slogging it out on the track 24/7 is bad, you must allow the body to recover before it improves(golden Rule)What happens when you over train you become lethargic and it is not easy then to correct that mistake. I have a feeling that our team has those symptoms.

At times Melbourne in 2006 were magnificent. for it all to go down the gurgler in such a short space of time, yes, I'm looking for scapegoats

They have GOT to believe when they sprint onto that ground that they are going to rip the oppositions throats out and absolutely believe that they are the BEST with no shadow of a doubt.they have got to be arrogant no question.

You have that mental strength when you know you can handle anything that the oppos will throw at you.

After the bad news today regarding Aussie, I thought I would check the MFC staff list to see of the infamous Bohdan was still with us.

Sure enough, my worst fears were realised -

Bohdan Babijczuk – Athletic Development Coach

Expect another frustrating year of injuries and setbacks to our young brigade with this guy leading the way.

A few years after Hawthorn sacked him, they won the flag.

Why am I not surprised?

YM Bohdan Babijczuk it the athletic development coach, he has NOTHING to do with conditioning, physiotherapy or medical. This means he has NOTHING to do with Aussie's training schedule or his rehabilitation. Accordingly he has NOTHING to do with Aussies hammy.

On this occasion you're not surprised because you're ill informed.

You are spot on here Fan. Bohdan is no longer our conditioning coach. YM had better have a go at the new bloke if he wants to find another scapegoat.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    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.
