    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.

    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: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
