Tim Smith (calf) too. 

Smithy unable to stay on the park.  JKH down & out.... stretcher

 

looks like JKH broke his leg

Looked like a leg injury. Don't think we'll be seeing him again for a while. Hopefully he is ok the poor guy!


Just after it the Lions turned it over, and what happened? Another ANB fumble. I'll put it down to it being pre season but sheesh, it hasnt been a pretty start. 

Umps have been awful as well.

Watt do you think happens... when players go into a game,  and play to not get injured. ????

Get injured!? ?


I really hope we are playing at 40%......If not we have a bit to do. 

Globetrotter time. 

Which team played finals?

I wish we would try.


Yeah looked like a broken leg. Horrible!

Back to the match, they're still smashing us. We're fumbling and missing targets repeatedly. We're not laying or sticking tackles. We're obviously just wanting the real stuff to start, but it's still disappointing to see such a lack of effort and the players being this rusty. This is it before round 1, and our skills look horrible.


This is turning into a rubbish day.

I am not a big JKH fan, but he is finally at the point where he is competing for a spot in the 22 and while he would always be depth in my opinion it's a cruel blow to get injured at the best time in his career to push his case.

Also a blow to our depth.  Hope he is ok.

 

Are we taking the pi$$?  We look incredibly sloppy in all facets of the game. Our skill level is a real worry.

Hopefully JKH just has bone bruising or something else not too ominous.  Hyperextension is better than a twisting type knee injury usually..fingers crossed ?

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
