Stefan Martin is quick becoming our everywhere man. Crazy, as though last year and even in the pre-season he couldn't hold an overhead mark to save his life. His touch on the ball is fantastic for a bloke that big.

    GR spot on, He is the big positive in 2011 for me.

    Gysberts we know can play, Tapscott looked the goods but could not get on the park.

    But Stef is braining them as far as I can see.

    After three games he is "the" Positive for me.

    Fans have more than enough justification to be "negative" considering they are paying and giving their time up to watch the games. Also, this is a message board and an online community, and people can be as negative/positive as they like. It's fine either way, and no one should tell someone else otherwise.

    Here is a big positive for all you negative cry babies.... WE ARE STILL STANDING.

    FFS 4 years ago we looked to be dead as a club. That we are still here, playing, developing, progressing, surviving... that is the biggest positive of them all and everyone needs to remember that every time they feel like having a whinge about things.

    We are thriving as a club, and to me that is the only thing that matters at this point in time.

    Exactly so that's why fans have every right to set up a topic people can post positive things given the choice...

    A lot of other threads turn negative...as u point out it's your choice...im not saying anyone has to come here and say anything except providing a positive forum as a topic...

    It's only taken few replies for you to get on and state the obvious rather than keeping to the vibe of thread....well done..

    Signing Scully would be a positive.

    Everything else is going along fine.

    Hi all,

    I don't know if many of you feel the same as i do....

    Just a feeling that there is alot of negativity on this site and that this could be a thread where only real positive things are posted about the club, the team, the coaches etc..

    I want to start by saying no matter what I love this club and I'm absolutely over the moon at the membership tally this year! I really want to see us crack that 40k!

    In addition can't wait for today's game and I'm hoping that good things about today's game get posted here as acknowledgement...

    Not sure if there is an appetite for this but thought why not provide an alternative!

    Go Dees!!

    I'm with you on the negativity front. I'm also not so keen on the way threads seem so often seem to deinigrate into personal insults. Call me old fashioned but i was brought up to belive in the importance of respect and being polite. I'm keen on footy discussion not cheap point scoring.

    A postive from today? Jurrah - worth going along just for him, really smart in the last quarter the way he sheparded the Moloney goal through. Also Gysberts, he's a natural footy player and just a ball magnet. And Wonna showed how valuable his forward pressure will be in the next few years.

    Oh and 4 points. As i posted in another thread this was a real danger game and i'm happy to come away with a win

    So, no positives?

    Gotta say, Stefan Martin's in awesome form. Gys was great too.

    I remember when we nearly beat Collingwood in round 2 last year. Nick Maxwell was interviewed after the match and said something like ``good teams find a way to win even when they're playing badly." I think that happened today.

  • Quote

    Just imagine who we'll beat if we play four quarters of football some day soon. We still haven't even played two quarters in a game yet. That's a positive and a negative for obvious reasons.

    Some Postives so far

    Amazing improvemnet in Stef Martin

    Tapscott - just a brute

    Gysberts - a inspired draft selection - could be the pick of the bunch

    Players getting game time and experince

    No injuries - Injury free list is the best in many years

    Only lost 1 game out of three

    Scully to return

    Jordie Mac to return

    Our Midefield will be feared and the envy of all in the years to come

    Slowly building momentum - Team has yet to find true form - All the signs are pointing that we will come home with a wet sail

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
