Wow is it planet alignment?Have pieces finally fallen into place? Sheedys available ,what ?Melbourne needs a coach ,but even more we need a heartbeat.Fidel Castro will be around longer than us if we dont do something to resuscitate this club.

I no longer support this club.I dont turn up to games or buy a membership.Why should i?This club has given nothing to supporters.It is a continuous heap of mess on and off the field and i am way to young to be still inspired by the efforts of norm smith and barassi.I am no longer a diehard supporter and those who berate me for jumping off only need look at the seats next to them to understand i am now in the majority.Berate me but the club needs to win supporters like me back.Its reality

This club needs Sheedy.Without getting complex he has made a competitve team at essendon without a list.It is a far inferior list than ours.HE STILL HAS FORM.

He will lift immediately lift the spirits of players and supporters by mere presence.When barassi came back to our club we did not have a team.Parallels cannot be drawn.

If we get Sheedy ill be there round 1 next year.so will many others on the edge.Lets see if our list can build with support and direction.lets take a punt and jump from the mire

well Pequot.. youre a brave one to voice that. Yes you will be berated. dont sweat it. Its a big world with room for more than one view point. Many will rehash the ol...do not ask what your club has done for you, ask what you have done for your club line . Ive never subscribed to it personally. Not these days..its business and they are competing for my money, time as well as loyalties. well the loyalty isnt up for grabs.. but he other two are.

Having said that some of what you propse does have merit. I reckon you wouldnt be the only one to returnfromthe woodwork should someone of Sheeds ilk take the reigns. Many people want to invest their energies into somethign that will return them enjoyment. A decently chosen , prepared and instilled Melbourne team would do that. win or lose they would be competitive. Thats sufficient for the most part.

Though many question his sanity...no one can argue he doesnt know what he's doing. Quite frankly ...grabbing Sheeds is hardly a punt.. bit like backing the favourite in a two horse race.. you could stil lose.. but the odds are in your favour!! and that my friends is something we havent had for a very long while....43 years I'd suggest!! :-)

Well your definitely my hero, clearly your love for the club runs really deep its touching. Its a two way street buddy, hope your not like this with everyone in your life or you will be quite lonely.

i couldnt care if sheedy is only with us for 1 year, as long as that year brings us a premiership. but in all honesty, why do we need a 10 year coach? a few good years will do me, then let someone else take over while we have his winning culture in place...

Well if we get sheedy next year and you come back i hope I'm not sitting next to you.

I am someone who believes the members of the club are its heart beat and hate people who only come along to games when everything is going well and drop off when things aren't, It's such a shame we need more members to survive and you say "Lets see if our list can build with support and direction.lets take a punt and jump from the mire"

Well if our list needs support why are you not supporting us now?

ON the demon bandwagon got it right.

    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

    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.
