AFLW: Rd 07 (Game 2) vs St Kilda

BDA
in AFLW Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Our injury problems are starting to ease thankfully but still a tough road to make finals from here.

The Saints at Moorabbin won't be easy, especially coming off a short break, but if we show the same grit and determination as we did midweek we can win.

Fatigue is my big worry. We emptied the tank against the Crows and very difficult to recover in 4 days. But we have some fresh legs coming in so that will help.

I'm backing us to make it 3 wins on the trot to put us right back into finals contention

Go Dees

    Unbelievable AFLW draw. 3 1/2 day break.  Really.  Expect fatigue could be a factor. Oh and yes, it’s 3 1/2 days after an interstate travel. 
    Low scoring affair. I think it’s only a goal or less at the end. 
    Go Dees 💙❤️💙❤️

    Saints only have 1 extra day break than us, and this will be their third game in ten days (our third in 11 days). So fatigue is definitely going to be a factor for both sides, and one might handle it more than others.

     

    We've brought back three key players - Zanker, Paxy and Purcell, and the three out (Colvin, D'Arcy and Johnson have been amongst our lowest TOG).

    My biggest concern is whether bringing these three in upsets the changes to structure and team balance that saw us with the last two games. Hopefully not.

    Good start. Hanks and McNarama excellent so far

    Having the returning-from-injury fresh legs of Zanker, Purcell and Paxman all at once might be a pretty powerful effect in the circumstances.

    Dees getting an exceptional run with the umps for once!

    Huge quarter for Zanks, Banno and Gall to go big

    Mucking around with it because they’ve lost faith in hitting tall targets inside 50. Come on girls, pick a target out, put some air in the kick, it’s not too hard

    She's doing fine for a first year player. Obvious that she has the class and isn't afraid of contact. The rest will come with time.

    She'll be fine, hasn't quite adjusted to the pace yet but when it comes together she'll be an excellent forward.

    She’s dead scared of winning a hard ball and - whilst it might be fitness related - she’s slow. You take a small forward at the top of the draft it’s not unreasonable to want them to have some wheels

    She's doing fine. It's clear that she is a natural footballer. Any other week her goal last week would have been goal of the round. Obviously got plenty to improve on but I have no doubt the coaches would be happy with how she has started her career.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.

      It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?
