Its weird seeing Maddie Gay in Essendon colours

I was thinking more along the lines of ‘vomitous’ but ok, we’ll go with ‘weird’ 😅

    It’s even more horrible seeing West and Sheriff rip it up for the wees and poos. Given all Kennett and Hawthorn’s appalling attitude to AFLW over the first few years of competition they have no right to have a team as good as they’ve got!

    I'm going to miss Sheriff the most of all the departures.

    So long as someone takes her place wearing the Superhero long-sleeve top (à la Banno, Goldy, et al), I'm OK with it...

    Has our handballing significantly improved or did our run out of defence and through the middle just make it look better than it has been before?

    Not sure it's 'significantly' - it's coming off an already solid base. Otherwise, a combination, I'd say - part of the across-the-board incremental improvements, that our Dees continue to be leaders of (I was a little worried the praccy games showed us to be only in the pack).

    Rapt for Daisy with the win, will never forget her telling Gill on 360 she's only playing for Melbourne. Hope she has a great season, could definitely see her coaching Men down the track as an assistant, and who knows maybe even as Head Coach, however fully acknowledge that it's unlikely. Would be a spectacular story.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
