I went along. Sat in the "posh" seats on the second level (nowhere near as good as the mezzanine section of the MCC) and quite enjoyed the game. There were a good few MFC supporters sitting near in my vicinity so we cheered with much gusto (especially those frees we received in our backline).

I was there with my two cousins from overseas. Ideally would have liked a better performance and first impression by our guys, but my cousins did enjoy the game and atmosphere. I actually thought the crowd was decent considering it was 1st vs 16th, and both clubs are at the lower end of the membership market.

Got there at half-time because of work.

God I hate Telstra Dome (and backwards Doggie supporters)

I was there. Very poor turnout from Demons fans but the Bulldogs aren't exactly suffering from population explosion either.

Enjoyed the game, we are having a crack pretty much very week now - that's good enough for me to turn up.

Prefer the G bit it's still a game of footy isn't it?

The 'G might be a huge stadium that hosts many events, but when you attend games it's still like you're at the footy.

Recently someone described TD as a big television studio, which I felt was apt.

You need to learn to 'get your hand off it'...

I was there, about eight rows back in the cheer squad, 3.5 meters between each goalpost, as I am at every game. I reckon I was the loudest there, and it's a shame. I'm sitting in the cheer squad, so I would hope all the guys and girls around me would be at least as loud as me. I mean, at one stage I heard a group of Doggies supporters admonishing us as "the Silent Cheer Squad." But that's okay, each to his own.

I was there, surrounded by Dogs fans.

Telstra Dome is a horrid place, colder than a morgue and with about as much atmosphere too.

It is a bit like Mars.

I was there along with Prodigal Son + 3 others...Level 2 Aisle 43.

As for BT's comments...well what does he expect, its an away game so most of us are shelling out a not inconsiderable amount of money [over and above our standard membership], on a Sunday, against a side thats expected to [censored] us senseless. Thats not a brilliantly compelling entertainment offering.

Well done to other Demon fans who were masochistic enough to attend.

I actually thought there was a decent number of Dees supporters at the game yesterday.

It sh*ts me though when you have moron Doggies fans call up the radio and blame the bad crowd on our fans. You are 2nd on the ladder, and it's your home game, you should be able to get 30,00 of your own supporters there yourselves.

I was there. Level 1.

I thought there was more Dees fans there, than at the Richmond game at the Dome. That was embarrassing.

Nothing worse than a Moron Doggy Fan.

I was also on level 1. Talking of the Richmond game, I thought there were far less people there that day.

The area around me was quite full versus WB, and level 3 on the opposite side of the ground looked like it had a decent number of people.

However, I think the reported crowd figures were similar.

I was there and it was a pretty poor turnout.

I think though, i was on level 3 in the middle of bulldogs supporters with one melbourne 'supporter' behind us.

We had to move at quarter time. For the whole first quarter i couldn't watch the game as all i could hear behind me was this moron yelling 'Dog [censored]' 'Send them to the RSPCA, the RSPCA they're dogs'. 'Dog [censored]' 'Dog [censored]' "They're dogs, put them down' Over and over and over and over and over waiting for a reaction but never got one.

The sterotype of the bulldogs being moronic ferals may shift to us if more people like him keep wearing our colors.

It might have been the fact that we only kicked 1 goal, but that first quarter sitting in front of that fool was the worst 30 minutes of my life.

And sure enough, he couldnt help himself.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
