As a matter of interest, Demonland's opening post is coming up blank on my screen. Is anyone else having the same problem?

Yeah pretty much all my Demonland imported quotes and articles are blank for me but I blame my phone.  Works fine on laptop

    I've now read the article on the Port website. Why do people churlishly assume from what's been made public that Hinkley is being moved on by Port? That analysis doesn't make sense to me. Surely, if Port wanted Hinkley gone, they would have done that before the end of 2024. I think it far more likely to be exactly what Port says it is: a well organised succession plan. I hope it works. The AFL world would be a much better place if most clubs organised succession plans the way Port seems to have done in this instance. It's much better than radical overhauls where a new coach comes in and dumps the former assistants.

    I liked Hinkers, good everyman kind of coach.

    I don't think they will be winning it this year, finals maybe.

    I agree. I think his list has some serious holes which he tried to plug but overall made the best of it. And he was not anodyne like some. Very much heart on his sleeve which I like.

    i think hinkley will be looked back on by pear supporters as neale daniher was for us - he's achieved everything except for making a grand final, and united the club

    Neale Daniher made a GF ... 2000.

    Port need to stand by Ken for the full season regardless of results. I think it’s smart play. They move Ken on who’s clearly had his opportunity and they get to quell the noise if Port struggle this year. 

    “We have a succession plan in place and we’re standing by Ken until his contract is up”

    More trouble for Port with the collapse of their major sponsor GFG:

    https://www.weeklytimesnow.com.au/affiliates/kayo/millionaire-sanjeev-gupta-pulls-rug-out-under-david-koch-as-port-order-new-guernseys-to-ditch-gfg-logo/news-story/1f0b3e956f759de1c9c7b19e037bc990

     

    The newspaper headline says: 

    "Millionaire Sanjeev Gupta pulls rug out from under David Koch over Port order new guernseys to ditch GFG logo". Err, what?

    Hope they have a succession plan for their major sponsors.

    It's a Twitter/X issue. Happens every now and then.

    Also can occur if you use Ad Blockers on this website which you should definitely not do.

    Hopefully Port are able to find a new major sponsor soon enough. 
     

    Not so long ago it was us that had to deal with the EnergyWatch debacle.

    Yes, but only after they get their delivery of sponsorless guernseys thst they will then have to replace.

    No point getting new ones when they already have several for each player, they will just heat press over it with a new sponsor or plain black and white

    Carr will take over by round 10

    It might be earlier than round 10 at this rate....

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

      The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

      Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

      Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

      The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

      For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
