At the moment Tarkyn is Collingwoods best fielder and in all australian form. So far godders has done the job especially on saturday when he kept thommo to just 12 touches when he averages 25 a game. So I say throw him on Tarks and shut him down. Also forgive me if I'm wrong but last year did Benny do a magnificent job on Rocca?

I would play Godfrey on the Pies D.Swan who has been racking up the the posi's in recent weeks. Including a BOG performance on the weekend with 36 touches.

Would Nathan Brown be asked to play another defensive forward role that he played I thought rather well this week on either Swan or Heath Shaw? Just a thought. I haven't seen much of the Pies this year but would assume these two setup most of their creative thrusts from the half backline as loose, attacking defenders.

On game impact you'd say Lockyer has been there best midfielder this year, and thus I'd say Godfrey would get first crack at him.

Daniel Bell would be the logical matchup on Didak, given his cracking game on Welsh this week....

swan or pendlebury are their attacking players, godders on swan should be the go, he gets alot of clearances

shaw is in doubt after a 1st qtr corky against freo, but brown or sylvia would be a good choice to play on him on monday

man on man all day. every pocession earnt. hit them hard. every oppurtunity we should smash them fairly. seems only Wheels, Byron and Neita know how to do that. when theres a ball to be won still too many outside players. when we tackle keep the ball locked in.when we have ball 50 out from goal NEVER RETREAT

I'm just glad godfrey is back to a tagging role, rather than a free wheeling midfield role, where he was utterly useless. as a tagger he is one of our best, but as an offensive winger etc as he has been used in the last few years there are far better options.

For me i'd put him on burns or lockyer

to be honest, if anyone understoof doggy brown's role on saturday- he carved up mcleod, thats probably exagerating a little, but he kept mcleod to almost 0 influence. Brown went forward and presented and created space for our other forwards and did some good things too. Don't think he will be dropped just for Holland to come in-

Bizz is in great form and will not be dropped- play on Rocca

Carroll on Cloke or Rocca if Bizz is better suited to Cloke

Godfrey on Swan

James McDonald on Lockyer

Bell to didak if he's playing..or on Neon Leon..which means he could play on him in the midfield..which i'd love to see

holland on holland

nathan brown on nathan brown

Simon Buckley on Nathan Buckley

Paul Johnson on Ben Johnsson

Davey on Davis or Davies?

I liked that... so I went and had a look at the site to see if I could find any others... And I came up empty...

The closest ones were Sylvia and Carroll on Cox, Dick and Goldsack... Maybe Rivers to nullify Burns....

Oh well... there's always next week....

it's my day off.... Why not?

Johnson to pick up Johnson 2 weeks in a row...

Nathan Brown to pick up Nathan Brown 2 weeks in a row...

Matt White on Jeff White

Danny Hughes on Cleve Hughes

Mabe Rains on Rivers?

White - King?

Pickett - Hyde?

Newman - Bell? (a bit cryptic)

Dunn - Moore?

Knobel - Neitz?

Gee I'm pushing it now....

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    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
