Storm are the best club in Aus. They are constantly successful in a state that is not for their code. Most years they lose great players and they do not miss a beat.

Think of who they have lost in the last 10 years and how well they have remained.

Great onfield success but have not really developed a following in Melbourne....almost no media coverage

Understandable perhaps but a lesson for the AFL

interesting article here on the role of ANZ Stadium in NRL.......seems that no one likes it

They have a big following in Melbourne.

And all the salary cap breaches.

Pleasure to hear Gus Gould having to praise the Storm...it must really be hurting him.

I'm surprised he didn't trot out the 'bleak city' jibe.  He's done that before.

I flew up to the grand final and it was so nice to sit there and watch your team win a premiership.  They are a phenomenal team. Bellamy is the best sporting coach in Australia. 

Hopefully one day i can celebrate a demons victory

He's probably right then.

Anyone associated with the NSW Blues would know bleak when they saw it.

A big storm fan. Go to quite a few games. They have a serious "no nonsense" approach. And they are fortunate to have sensational leadership.  

Cameron Smith - probably the best captain in any code in Australia.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
