    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

  • 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: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
