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'
