I hate myself for thinking this, but long term are we better off losing and getting a higher draft pick? Suns and Saints could go past us on the ladder all going well.

Oh Demonsterative, you know I love you but… what the [censored] is this all about?!

The benefits of a win tonight - which are legion - far outweigh a slightly higher draft pick.

Now, step away from your computer, splash cold water on your face and try to see sense. Thank you.

My husband is coming along, but of course he’s lost the good charm vibes after the Port loss so he’s essentially dead to me. 
 

Bring your cavoodle instead. 😃

My daughter saw this in Munich of all places. Who would have thought u would see this in Munich. 

They had Petracca, Viney, Oliver and Fritch. 

Hopefully it’s a good sign for tonight. 

Go Dees

Why do they all look like Mexican drug lords?

Sydney has to be the worst minor premier in the history of the competition. Not only did they lose to the wooden spooner, they also had a 100+ point loss in there.

They might be Adam, but I’d still trade places with them in a heartbeat!

Hmm could I train him in the next few hours to run onto the field and take a steaming 💩 on Maynard?

Careful WCW, might give some of us coronaries with this reminder and that would mean less Dees fans at the game 😱😂

Wow the weather forecast has really turned. A few days ago it looked like a clear night. Typical Melbourne weather.

If it’s a wet weather game I think we’ll lose. Of all the times we’ve played fast and attractive footy it’s been dry conditions (West Coast, Gold Coast, Saints). I was hoping a repeat of the Gold Coast game but with this weather, I think it will be a very dour affair.

Well I wish we wernt playing the filth but we are, just really hope we finish on a win.

But I'm happy to say goodbye to season 2024. Its been horrendous all round.

But I hope there are no serious injuries & cox has a horrible game because at no point do I want him to see him shoosh anyone or hear the USA chant.

At least mays not playing to hear him get booed.

Not going to boo that thug. It only fires him up & the filth will cheer him all night.

I’m talking about tanking Ollie, I would not be disappointed if the cards fell our way and we get pick 5. 

Uhm… do I need to slap a fellow Demonlander?!

The cards will fall our way when we win tonight! A loss tonight would be heavier and more depressing than a regular loss.

We don’t just want to win tonight, we need to win. It is so important heading into our next campaign.

For anyone who’s at the posh function tonight in the Harrison Room (with Hassa and co.), there’ll be raffle tickets being sold (organised by Coterie) from 6:15pm. I’m one of the plebs selling them, so please buy a raffle ticket or 10. 😃

PS I’ll be the one in red n blue 😅

I’m in two minds about this WCW. I want to win like the rest of us. There is a ‘but’ though. I want to give JT and the club the best chance of getting the best talent into the club. Long term for our assault next year and beyond, it could in be the clubs favour to get a lower draft pick. 
 

The players (the young ones too) understand the difficulties of this year and a win not inflate or deflate the group going into pre-season for 2025. 
 

Btw, I’m not wanting us to tank or play below our best. I will be cheering hard for a win (I’m a competitive person and experience white line fever when the boys cross that white line), but If we don’t, I hope like hell pick 5 or 6 comes our way. If it does I won’t be disappointed

Is there a dead rubber premiership cup?

I believe it’s called the ‘Inconsequential Cup’….that I want us to win. Three reasons, I really despise the Filth, I’ll be at the game and I hate losing!

GO DEES!

He has a better chance of licking him to death Jaded.  Although you might need to jump the fence and level Mayturd first

Look at it as a win-win situation 😉

Hope for the win, be happy even if we lose.

Yep, all pending St Kilda and Gold Coast beating up on Richmond and Carlton. 
 

If we lose.

    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
