    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.

    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

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

    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.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
