    I still remember how much praise Garry Lyon used to give Toumpas.. it was getting to the point of embarrassing

    In round 1 2014, St Kilda had 6 of their best 22 out and we still stunk up the joint against them.

    I hope we don’t fall into the complacency trap as Port at their best will be a tricky assignment.

    Port have good players _ Westhoff cuts us up regularly, for example.

    Yes, no  room for complacency. I think we have the wood on the Power though.

    Is it true Wines missed a Port training session or some kind of club function to attend Viney’s wedding?

    Someone can correct me on this but wasn't it after a round one slaughter by Port in a game we were expected to win, Neely said at the presser " We didn't see that  coming"

    Both teams are a total opposite to back then, we were a bad team getting worse, they were on the rise, now we are on a rise and their team was already weaker before wines injury.

    He appeared to be one of the groomsmen at the wedding so perhaps he had permission. I doubt be just didn't turn up. 

    I’d say he was given permission. Just found it a tad comical that some Port fans are claiming Wines isn’t committed to the club because he attended a close friend’s wedding.

    I don't think we were complacent in 2014...just not very good.

    Neither were the Saints but they did have Nick Reiwoldt.

    He & Etihad were the difference.

    If we lose to Port complacency will have nothing to do with it....

    Wedding was Jan 5. Port were still on their mandatory 3 week break at that time.

    May b, that's where he hurt his shoulder,  putting it to the Vandenberg school of... 'harme's wrestling'.   ?  ?

    He shouldn't have signed that contract.

    Who cares.......

    Enough of the rumours and innuendo Ethan. This kind of gossip posting is against Demonland rules 

    ? ?

    If he has popped the shoulder, some sort of damage has been done.  Scans today should determine exactly what. 

    News report last night showed him running around without any strapping.  But then G.Ablett was shown doing exactly the same 2 years ago when at the Suns.  Trouble was he couldn't lift his arm above shoulder height for another 6 months. 

    Clubs don't want the fans to lose hope before the season even starts.  He would be a huge loss to them if the prognosis isn't good.

    It is better to break your shoulder then dislocate it, break it and they put in a rod and your back in 2 weeks

  • Quote

    9 reporting he’s had minor surgery. They are saying a 6-8 week return.

  • Quote

    Should Wines have been waterskiing ?

    Footballers are full-time professionals and top players like Wines are contracted to play on big money. 

    What are the limits on what a player can and can't do?

    If you incur an injury in training or a match fair enough.

    But a high risk recreational activity like water skiing seems well....risky.

    At the same time, the player should use some discretion. I seem to remember Jones stopped surfing during last season. That seems sensible.

    sounds similar to a chaplin of ours in 2017...

    Why would you break your shoulder, then dislocate it?

    I got it - better to break than dislocate

    This poster has been making the same mistake for as long as he has been posting. ALWAYS uses "then" in place of "than". He also gets very offended when you correct him. 

    :P

    hasn't had surgery yet.

    "It's believed he won't need a full shoulder reconstruction, but will have surgery to tighten the ligaments."

    My mistake dc. Went back and had a look at the tweet i read at midday. Was getting ready for it.

    @VSchwarz9

     

    Ollie Wines has entered Sportsmed for minor surgery, his shoulder injury not as bad as feared. It’s believed he will be back in 6-8 weeks.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
