Reading Demonland... Thinking we have lost by 60. We just beat Port at home by 40 for the first time in 16 years. Deadset guys.

Rubbish.

You're obviously not watching the game?  Port dominated possession and inside 50's that quarter but couldn't finish off.

Great first half.  We need to remember we are playing on their home turf, so they'll always have periods where they will get on top, but our defence has held firm and we've taken our chances.

Special mention to Dom Tyson, who is having a wonderful second half of the season.  16 touches and 4 clearances so far, he's been terrific.

This is good. We have them under extreme pressure when they have the ball.

Our slick disposal and ball movement wore off a bit in that quarter.

Watts Hogan Viney out of it and we are still thrashing them. Jones also quiet.

Need a huge effort in this 3rd quarter to put them away. Pollack and Wines the only 2 keeping them in it.

Just goes to show how talented we are now.  Some of our key players can have quiet nights, yet we're still 6 goal up.  It's fantastic!

I think we might need to be patient tonight.  Port, on their home turf and after last weeks 'effort', will no doubt come out breathing fire and looking to kick a few early goals to get the crowd behind them.  You can see the downhill skiers now - Wingard, Gray, Ebert, Dixon, Westhoff etc will all be up and about and I think it may take some time to weather that storm.  If we can do that, and limit some of that potential early damage, then we can easily get on top and run all over them as the game wears on.

So, if Port do kick the first couple, there is no need to go and jump off the Westgate Bridge.

I love how wrong this was.

Only 1 club does the fake, tough guy stuff better than Port, and that's Norf.

Has Viney ever had a good game against Port?

His first game against them was pretty good

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
