What a miserable game that was?

Adelaide Oval. A rabid pro-PA crowd and even more rabid pro-PA umpires who gave them the world and deprived Jeremy Howe of mark of the year.

You might want to correct the 'Outs'. Was the third out Joel MacDonald, perhaps?

Tom McNamara was out twice ... out of the team, and out of the club. :unsure:

When you have a look at that 25 player Demon side from last year, apart from injuries, the only changes are Morton and Moloney plus McNamara gorn. Not great turnover or improvement.

Part of that is due to bad luck, if Mitch Clark, Liam Jurrah, James Magner, Tom Couch, Rory Taggert and Tynan were playing there would certainly be a large changeover and a fairly large improvement (Mitch Clark is a large amount of improvement on his own!)

Made the trip across the boarder for this game.

Never seen a more disgracefully umpired game in my life.

I was just about to say that this game sticks out as the worst umpired game I can ever remember. I was at work watching it on TV; my colleague on the day thought I was mental. Gah, I'm getting angry again thinking about it.

I reckon it was the only time I have ever whinged about the umpiring of a game on Demonland afterwards too.

Really? It was that bad. I have never watched a game from adelaide. My brother had to sprint out of footy park after a final which the aints won a few years back. He said it was seriously scary.

So i haven't done it.

Hey WYL, they've got these new fandangled things called TV's these days. You no longer have to travel to Adelaide to watch matches there :)

I know the rules, even the ones the AFL changes from year to year. I was at the game and the fact that the Port supporters around me were laughing at their good fortune with a lot of the calls tells me that we were right to blame the umpires to some extent for the result.

I still can't work out why Aaron Davey didn't play this game.

He was suspended for the previous week, but was fit and available for this game. He also didn't play for Casey.

Most likely his wife was giving birth to his 43rd kid.(No cultural offence intended )

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
