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

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
