Gawn - true Demon heart

Tholstrup - poor situational  awareness 

McDonald - continued late renaissance 

Viney - amazing leaders game

Turner - cause for optimism 

Petty - provided regular contests

Rivers  - useful, not outstanding 

vanRooyen - some impressive moments 

Neal-Bullen - great second efforts

Bowey - kicking skills diminished 

Langdon - indefatigable running prowess

Chandler - useful forward connector

Tomlinson - steady and reliable 

Lever - far from convincing

Fritsch - a leisurely frolic

Howes - showing some promise 

Hore - looked at home

Salem - defender of old

Pickett - unsighted until last

Melksham - some impressive touches 

Billings - just a plodder

Sparrow - little before injury

McVee - surprisingly rarely involved

Good to see him back.

Tough readjustment last week but turned up today.

Well done.

Tholstrup - not there yet (his decision making and reaction time isn't fast enough yet)

Disco - no obvious weakness

Kozzie - shouldn't have played

Billings - experienced shouldn't fumble

Viney - legend of club

kozy puts in some average ones   hopefully a big one next week  How good to beat the filth

By now Goodwin should now that if Kozzy is quiet in the first half he must start in the midfield ASAP, touching the leather invigorates Kozzy.

I would say Tholstrup - learning pretty fast

Can we get rid of that pathetic arc?

Once again it robs us of a certain goal.

For once it didn't cost us a game though.      I am sure there are stats somewhere that show how many calls have gone for and against certain teams.   Cost us the final v Carlton and other games I cannot specify.

Equivalent to telling the time with a two bob watch.

That bloody arc has cost us games. I hate it. Don’t care if an umpire makes a bad decision, part of the game.

On this occasion though I think it was the goal umpire that stole it from him.

Tholstrup - his best game

Very tough on Billings - 21 disposals going at 90% is a very good game.

Exactly what he was scouted for.

Goal umpire called it a point, so without the arc it would still have been a point.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.
