We're already winners by not being Collingwood.

To those who prefer to lose for better draft position I say, take a look at our history. It's never been a successful strategy for us. whether its pick 6 or pick 10 JT will find a good player.  I

Draft picks are a bit of a lottery. Beating the Pies would be glorious. I say let’s thump the bastards.

They’ll never find the body. 
 

 

I trust we understand one another.

 

Yes Ma’am! Fully understood.

 

i hope Trac picks up his act. I know you are not happy with him. 
 

I can see how and why Clarry has turned a corner now.

I don’t have a pooch. But I can release my chooks onto the field. They could scratch the @rsehole’s eyes out then peck him to death. Simples. 

My goats can be pretty lethal - they are not fussy. They will eat anything. The donkey gives a decent kick if he’s annoyed and my horse could stomp him. Your chickens and my chooks could gang up 🤣

Well I thought tonight was going to be lovely...

Big blob of rain about to appear and the forecast is now "Very high chance of showers, tending to rain at times later this evening. Damaging winds possible about the nearby hills later this evening."

My app says rain will stop by 6. 
This is Melbourne, has any weather forecast ever been correct?

This surely has to be an omen. A large magpie just flew into my triple glazed window. Looks like he broke his neck and has now gone to God. Gave me a hell of a fright but he is no longer with us.

A very morbid omen.

Looking at the radar, it will all pass over by 6pm or so.

Ground will be wet but no rain during the first quarter and a half.

Then it will bucket down.

Hassa, what a star, my hero, No 29.  
Was there when he kicked 7 , Queen’s Birthday 1967 MCG, was selected in the CENTRE lined up against Bobby Skilton.

I don’t know if he actually played in the centre that day, may have been HFF, but they generally lined up as selected back in the day. If so, must be the only time a centreman has kicked 7 in a match.

Yeah, I'm not buying into the "hope we lose" to get a better draft pick.

If there was an additional first round priority draft pick at stake, per the Richmond Jordan McMahon game in 2009, then you'd have to heavily consider the benefits of a loss.

But we're talking about sliding a couple of spots down the order of a deep first round.

(the main benefit of losing is actually getting into the 13-18 fixture group should GC win tomoz)

    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
