They aren't playing at AAMI apparently... it will be at the cricket ground (Adelaide Oval?).

Good news!

Game over, got the four points which is the most important thing in very tough conditions.

 

WELL DONE BOYS. 4 points in the heat.....not easy, i don't care who the oponent is.

I know that heat.

A very average coaching effort against the bottom side with a first year coach!

Get a clue and don't be so bloody pessimistic.

We got the 4 points (again) over in Darwin at a ground that is a real struggle with the instense humidity and "unfootball-like" conditions!

We beat Darwin... not Port Adelaide.

Exactly, it was a good performance against a team who plays there more often than us.

Rather uninspiring game of footy and not one I'll remember for life's eternity, but 4 points is better than 0 points.

Special mention to James Frawley, who in my opinion is UNSTOPPABLE in that kind of form. And to Stefan Martin, who has gone from borderline hack to pure awesomeness over one pre season.

Well done Demons.

Mrs Ucanchoose here - I've been reading this thread while watching the game, and finding myself more and more amused with the antics of some of the posters tonight regarding Tom Scully - it's like I'm reading the posts of a bunch of women on a parenting messageboard, arguing about the best way to toilet train your toddler!

it's quite ok to bag players like morton incessantly, but scully has a very average night and nobody is allowed to go near him! be realistic, we are allowed to say it as we see it.

It's always good to win, but stop making excuses - we would have been destroyed by a half good side, particularly one with good defensive skills!

I,m with you a good win. Just hope they are not stuffed next week


I really hate this Darwin game, it gives this rabble of a team in Port a chance to beat us and it completely stuffs us for the following week.

Agreed. Tonight's crowd was the smallest attendance out of all games at TIO. Majority of them seemed to support Port.

Only thing that seemed to indicate that it was a Melbourne home game was the navy shorts!

Was Scully in the huddle there? I didn't see him!

He wasn't there. Halfway through I was looking for him and realised when they mentioned a 'team bonding win'

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
