Defence – a work in progress
Now if you like many of us are curious, to say the least, about that big gap out the back of our defence that the Saints, North and Port
in particular have exploited so effectively then its worth listening to Matt Burgan’s interview today with Jade Rawlings on the MFC website.
Jade talks about how we are defending very differently to the way we have in the past and discusses the impact of teaching new systems and having very inexperienced players
trying to execute. Listen in here

Silver Service at Metricon Stadium – by Jacqui Parry
I know, we shouldn’t get too carried away – but didn’t the lads play a blinder on Saturday at Metricon stadium!!!
Sharing the love in front of goals – Cameron Pederson, Jeff Garlett and James Harmes with triple treats, Big Maxy, Nathan Jones, Ben Kennedy, Christian Petracca and Jack Viney with a double each, and Jesse Hogan, Dean Kent, Billy Stretch, Dom Tyson and Bernie Vince with the cherries on top.
Silver Service all the way from the centre bounce, and don’t you just love that Petracca Strut!!!
Jack Viney was at blistering pace. Jetta and Jeffy were soooooo DEADLY really hitting their targets. Jesse Hogan didn’t kick seven goals this week but he monstered everyone who crossed his path. Bernie Vince might still look like a freckle faced sixteen year old but he has shouldered a man-sized load for us since he came across the border.
Not much was reported on the role of our backmen, ‘cos we all get so excited about the goals, but I think they were sensational. Tom MacDonald did a great job, ….. and what a captains game Nathan Jones…
Lovely to see so many of our players get the AFLCA votes for the game. Might make for a bit of heart ache at the B&F dinner.
Doggies next week – bit more of a challenge – but we are up to it.
Cheers,
Jacqui Merlin and Sugar.
SILVER SERVICE FROM THE BEARDED BUTLER
Competitive Dees and Petracca’s debut
Last week we came out playing determined disciplined competitive football, got our hands on the ball, won the contested ball and won two games in a row for the first time in 5 years – yeh! Can we do it again this week against St Kilda? Tough competition for spots sees only one change this week but it’s an exciting one with the debut of Christian Petracca.
Come along and join the NSW Demons at the Cammy to watch the game on the big screen.
Melbourne V St Kilda on the Big Screen on Saturday 30 April at 1.45 pm at the Camelia Grove Hotel.
See you at the Cammy

Tonight’s game – what are you looking forward to?
This week
An exciting game tonight when we play Richmond at the MCG in front of a big crowd! How will we go? Will we come out playing the determined disciplined competitive football that we’ve seen in the last two weeks? Will we stick to the game plan under the pressure of a big crowd and high expectations? Will we bring the pressure and intensity to the contested ball – and maintain the “see ball, get ball” style of football? Will we see the Watts Hogan partnership continue to flourish?
Here’s what three NSW Demons are looking forward to:
‘Our midfield beating theirs in contested ball and a little more magic from Garlett (and what a nice selection worry….Garlett or Petracca!)’ Rod
‘5 years. That’s how long it’s been since we won two games in a row. It’s time to break that cycle. Win the contested ball, compete like DEMONS and put more hoodoos to rest in a big game on a big occasion that we want to make a marquee match.’ Andrew
‘If we can execute our Game Plan we’ll win. The key to that will be getting our hands on the ball first by being more competitive at the contests. They have a more experienced list with more runs on the board we have a better Game Plan.’ Steve
So much to watch so come along and join the NSW Demons at the Cammy to watch the game on the big screen at 7.10 pm this evening. The bistro will be open until 8 pm so enjoy dinner and a drink and sit back and cheer on the Dees.
Last week – Match Report from Jacqui in Coffs Harbour
It’s a Grand Old Flag – It’s a Magpie Flogging Flag – It’s the Emblem for me and for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“WE BEAT COLLINGWOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’
This is such an auspicious occasion – we didn’t just flop over the line – we flogged them!! It was a very classy win, with many players contributing and kicking goals. Who kicked our goals – just about bloody everyone – fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seeing the Shinboners on top of the ladder at the end of this round also makes sense of last week – we came so close.
Lovely to see young Jayden Hunt literally jumping out of his sweater to play – mum must have been down on the sidelines with the needle and thread to stitch that lucky little guernsey together for him so he could stay on the paddock.
Lots of celebration and many renditions of “It’s a Grand Old Flag….., etc” (where’s that bloody bugle when you need it?)
Go the Dees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Women’s footy and Daisy Pearce
I’m sure you know about the great work the footy club has been doing with women’s football and here’s an excellent article about Daisy Pearce by Caroline Wilson.
“Melbourne’s love affair with the women’s game began some years ago and that club will surely become a foundation club — with Pearce as captain………. The Demons’ love affair with Pearce was cemented when she delivered, with less than an hour’s notice, her memorable acceptance speech at last year’s best and fairest dinner.” Read more
See you at the Cammy
