The handball from the pack to Bruce was a beauty. Pity about the subsequent kick from #32.

Like Hannabal I've done a full 180 on Wonaeamirri.

Now we just need RR to do a Fonz, and admit he was wrong. Nah, can't see it happening. B)

he needs to start being talked about as a genuine threat to win the Rising Star. He is every bit as good as C.Rioli, especially considering the supply and the forwards he gets to rove off.

I agree with the comparison with Rioli, however I think Houli and Palmer are in front in the race for the Rising Star.

well houli didn't play on the weekend and palmer cant kick to save his life!

has anyone notice that aussie is actually a ball magnet too! this year his disposal have all been double figures not one match where he has gotten less then 10 possessions.

i have said that aswell aussie will make a late claim for the rising star! going just as good as rioli

His vision and quick hands in packs was what really impressed me about the kid.

Correct, he is a one grab player even when the ball is bouncing awkwardly and he seems to know where his team mates are at all times.

His handpasses from a pack to Davey and Bruce in the last qtr were first class.

What makes him great is exactly the OPPOSITE of the things that make Davey great. Aaron's too small to be a lead-up forward, too light to cop the big hits... He has survived and thrived on the fact that he has an exceptional footy brain, and does the freaky things more often than not. Austin doesn't do so many flashy things... He leads, takes marks, runs hard, tackles hard, doesn't take a backward step. He's a solid marking target despite being tiny. Its this reason I have high hopes for him. So often we get a player come out of the blocks early in their careers, and being pessimists, we look at them more in terms of what will hold them back, instead of what will make them great... Austin has all the solidity of a young Byron...

I am with you H.

I have not seen Aussie do enough for mine to suggest that he is more than a fringe player in a poor side.

Austen just keeps getting better Rhino-He was Fabulous Yesterday. He could be a dead set Melbourne Legend. I sure hope so. He and Davey work so well together.

    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.
