Okay, first of all, where is everybody? Are you aware there is a match going on between the absolute most corrupt team in the universe and the only team that matters? Come on, guys.

So, I missed the first quarter. What's been going on? Who's good? Is Neita as old as he was? Does Robbo look like he cares? Good pressure? Give me something, please.

Carn the Dees!

Can't tell you much, but the MFC is in front for the first time this year, I do believe.

Whoopps. Momentarily. But on even terms 4.4 each

2 goals behind now. Stats are very even, and M tackle count is higher than Carlton's, so the players are trying hard.

If I hear them crap on about Judd one more time like he's God's gift to football without the ball I'm going to throw the plasma out the window

God yes! I am so sick of that. There was a play where Murphy and Kreuzer were handballing to each other which resulted in a goal, and the commentators were rabbiting on about Chris Judd like he scored the goal, even though he was 50 meters from the ball! Bloody Hell.

4 goals behind now, and at least 3 free kicks have given up freebie goals to C

6 goals down - half time.

7 unanswered goals to C. It's as if they got in front and stopped. Kid's stuff really, junior footy. Robbo 1.1 and 2 out on the full :angry:

Stupid, meaningless. All over red-rover. I have given up on miracles.

can we swap yze with robbo next week please?

In 3 quarters, Robbo has had 14 touches, 6 marks for his 1.1

Yze hasn't had this much of the ball for a cupla years. Dump Robbo by all means. But Yze? Your kidding.

I wouldnt take too much notice of what commentators say especially those who have never played the game

they are there to make it enteraining in their defence but to me i do cringe quite a bit

when judd got the ball without it being anything special the commentators voice went up 90 decibels and described it 100 fold in exageration

had to laugh at the special comments (simpson i think) pointing that out to drew * they would let me play at 4 feet 7 inches *morphet

i would like to see how many free kicks were paid to advantage however. i reckon we had at least 6 maybe 8 or 9 which were paid even tho we had already cleared out possession.

it would also be interesting to see the goals from free kicks i suspect about 5 to 1? plus they got one from a 50 (tho they would have kicked it anyway)

    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
