The Demons' outcome of a smashing victory will depend heavily on the small brigade running Port ragged.  

Yep. Port will be quick no doubt, but reckon they kamikaze run leading to fatigue later in games. If we’re smart, our smalls (particularly forwards) will be able to hurt them on the transition.

Also need to watch out for Marshall, he usually reserves some of his best games for us.

I'll be watching the match at the Sporting Globe (Richmond version). Any other Demonlanders going there?

PS. I'll be easy to identify ... an old man with a Demons scarf.

Are you my father?

    Get off to a flyer Dees.

    And the umps thanks.


    Nervous about tonight 

    If Port kick straight we will need to have a perfect night with all stars playing well

     

    I really want Petty playing forward but I'll understand if he doesn't.

    The fact that Hore is in bodes well for it to happen.

    Those two early marks he took last week reminded me of how much of a good fwd target he is.

    Bbb,Petty and Jvr will be tough to counter.

    Might be the afternoon of slugging ice cold beers but I reckon we’ll make a serious statement tonight. 
     

    Dee’s by plenty 


    Disaster ... the Sporting Globe (Richmond) is closed for renos.

    Can someone else suggest another suitable inner city pub at which to watch the match?

    walk down to the London or the Corner?

    To be honest I won't be surprised either way tonight. 

    But I hope we win to start off our Adelaide trip well & win for Jack

    Beg to differ on May’s performance/presence in the 2021 Grand Final. Definitely not a cardboard cutout, gave his fellow defenders and teammates a great deal of confidence. Had ‘Astroboy’ and his teammates totally bluffed. He was still standing 24 hours after the final siren.

    Agree.  Blanketed Naughton, as he has done countless times.  Dogs goals came from bontempelli and unlikely sources like Treloar and Johanissen, talls couldn't get a snifter...

    Hey Bingers! Can you make your way to South Melb? 50 Tope Street. Neita’s brand spanking new pub called Brewmanity. Neita’s gonna be there, as well as Robbo and Brad Green and members of the DA who aren’t here in Adel.

    Then let me know what it’s like coz I’ll be going there to watch Thursday’s match. 👌🏽

    Definitely, the umps .... 


    Should we adjust expectations for this game?

    Port are a good side and a tough ask at home.

    I believe we are good enough but it's going to be difficult.

    Will need our best from our mids and some luck re no injuries.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
