Anyone other Demonlanders making the trek?

I came via Uluru and and Kaja Tjuta which were both mind blowing. Off to the Palm Valley and West MacDonnell Ranges in the next few days. I should have come from Uluru to Alice via Kings Canyon so Kings Canyon will have to wait for another trip. Rookie mistake.

In contrast to Darwin the ground is in the centre of town. The ground looks in great nick. Not as spongy as Darwin. Pretty small grandstand!

    I'm in.

    The bloke I'm going with has sorted some sort of corporate tent ticket, but I imagine that once I've filled up the tank I'll go and sit with the cheer squad or stand in the outer.

    Not expecting a win, but hoping the boys are on song regardless and push Port hard all day.

    my Son is flying off to Instanbul on Thursday and will watch from there. I'll listen on the radio on return from St. Andrews Market and set record on Foxtel.

    Prediction: You just never know. If all have a red hot go and fortunes are with us we're a chance for sure. Dawes is a major loss but Frawley back will help with a target. Just on Dawes this Guy's blown my mind. Really didn't think he was that good.

    Central Australia is one amazing place. Coming here I pretty much thought I was visiting Uluru but its much more than just Uluru. Yesterday I took a 4 wheel drive bus trip to Finke Gorge National Park, 138 Km west of Alice past Hermannsburg. The Cycad Gorge and Palm Valley are strange relics of tropical Gondwanaland plum in the middle of Australia. An extraordinary landscape. Its a great time to visit because recent rains have seen an explosion in flora and fauna that disappear during long periods of low or no rain.

    The extraordinary about the NT is that there is still alot more amazing country to see like Kakadu and Arnhem Land to name two. They'll have to wait for another trip. Tomorrow its the West Macs.

    Get up here Dees Fans!

    Just taking advantage of the Dees game in Alice to visit Central Australia for the first time. Doing it easy on coach tours!

    With flights direct to Uluru from Melbourne and then buses to Alice or via King's Canyon its not as expensive as many people think.

    Basic itinerary would be to fly to Uluru, spend a few days visiting Uluru and Kata Tjuta(Olgas) then catch a bus to Kings Canyon. Stay the night there then get the bus to Alice and get out to Palm Valley/Cycad Gorge and West Macs. Ideally schedule your trip to coincide with the Dees playing in Alice!

    And ideally you'd avoid summer. Too hot, and sometimes rain closes some of the roads ie Palm Valley was closed for 10 days about 6 weeks ago du to rain and flooding.

    Good stuff Demoniac.

    I was in far north-east Arnhem Land yesterday, at Nhulunbuy on the Gove Peninsula.

    Visited a traditional Yolngu ceremonial ground at nearby Gulkula, where I stood on top of an escarpment with sweeping views of the Gulf of Carpentaria, which was absolutely stunning.

    Also visited a fantastic indigenous art gallery and archive in Yirrkala.

    Off to Alice tomorrow arvo for Saturday's blockbuster.

    • 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.
