Not one mention of Lachie Hunter. Sorry but these guys are just clueless Port Supporters who have been paying no attention at all

    Agreed... and then they admitted they hadn't seen much of our preseason!  At least do some research to give yourself half a chance of saying something interesting

    Nothing too insightful here.  It’s from the outside looking in. Not quite the “inner sanctum”.  I had more informed conversations with mates over beers at the cricket club on Saturday night.  Dees will be in the premiership window and it depends on injuries, strategies and how other clubs excel. 
     

    Hamish was very informed and has some comments around structure, and his insight on JVR was acknowledged.  
     

    ps. JJ saying “you know” every second sentence was annoying !!

    ‘In her rectum’ would be a more appropriate pronunciation of their name….

    They seem to have read the dishrag HS over the summer. Reckon the podcast here or gazman would do better.  The view From outsiders like this is positive and sets up general expectation on us,  most like this suggest top 4 as a minimum pass mark.

    Btw, if ‘i knew’, JJ, then why would i was my time?

    however, thanks for posting DL.

    The worst was a Welsh woman who at one point said, « you know you know you know ». True story.  And the stranger thing was she didn’t know she was saying « you know ».

    I don't usually mind these guys and their season previews but this one didn't really do anything.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.
