I am going to and staying in Adelaide for both games. I need suggestions as to where Demon supporters will be eating and drinking before ( and after) the game.

    Now I am back in Adelaide, I am also going to the Gawn-Petracca Symposium a few evenings ahead from now. Love these speeches and query sessions (remembering how good the Bernie Vince discussions were at the Sporting pub in Richmond, a few years ago) - plus winning the door prize of $300-worth of Demon accessories at the next gathering. See yas all at the Strathmore, Easter Saturday pre-game pith-up.

    Ummm enjoy the fraternity of fellow Demon diehards.

    Personally, I would prefer a nice peaceful environment with the person you love and a glass of McLaren Vale Shiraz, perhaps Samuels Gorge or Paxton, Alexandrina Cheddar and Willunga Olives. There are plenty of quiet spots to indulge life’s pleasures free from the noise of footy supporters. The trick is to avoid the Port Adelaide and Crows fans. Particularly if they win. If we win, take off your scarf.

    History confirms your last two sentences, hemingway. As for the wines, I prefer a cabernet-sauvignon for smoothness and versatility with my preferred diet. The cheeses are good, as are the olives but lately, I have been enjoying the varied Italian cheeses on the market for flavour and the rangey complexity of depth. As for noisy football supporters, I do like to watch them pass by on shanks pony - particularly after a Filth loss - thanking God for his wisdom. The person I love will be hiking in her 'latter-years frenzy' to discover the true fountain of youth; she just loves energetic day-long strolls through the bush for days on end. Otherwise, she would be alongside me quietly reciting her latest tome to the Mighty Demons, their infallible successes and those amongst her favourite player list. Carna Dees!

    Indeed.

    If we win, the life guards will be off duty at the Port Adelaide gene pool

    Stay safe

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
