    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: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
