Last week, nobody guessed it and every single person over estimated...

My guess is 38,000...

Dude, it's a collingwood home game. No way in hell in will be under 50,000 ( yes i do realise i said that last week about the 30,000 mark)

54,713

I hope a stack of Demon Supporters come to the Game this week. To embrace our "Home" & see the new Team Find its way. We are a chance as the Filth have a fairly young side aswell. 56,479

Don't really care since it's not our home game! Just hope a decent number of those in red & blue go, especially those who say they can't or won't go Sundays because this is one of only three (yes three) Saturday arvo games in Melbourne.

M2W, i'm deliberately going very low. my theory is, we got 59K I think last year queens bday. Minus at least 10K because it is not QB. Minus a bit more because it is Melbourne and Pies fans wont look at this match as a very exiting one.

Hope it is a lot higher.

Nah, the pies supporters will be out in force cos after falling short last week they'll want to see a big win over what they think is a dud opponent.

I predict the crowd to be 57,884.

We got 59k last year for QB.

51,643

I got very close last week (29,432 was my guess on last week's thread), and I'm confident I won't be far off this week.

I base this on last week's crowd of Collingwood vs Adelaide (about 41,000), compared with the difference of Melbourne being a Melbourne-based team, minus the few that won't come because it's not a Melbourne home game, minus those who won't come due to predicted rain, minus a few of the magpie hordes who chewed their last few teeth off during last week's loss to the Crows and are still trying to read d.e.n.t.i.s.t. in the phone-book to arrange some dentures. If all fell well for the Pies (their home game), then if the sun decides to shine, 55,311 (though I'll leave my 1st prediction as my official one).

45,000

We will be very outnumbered as it is not our home games, as bring back stated, "MFC fans don't turn up to away games at the G for some reason??"

might be something about being seated with filth!

FOR SURE Mont!!! Even though i am going with one.

If we outnumbered the Roos last week then it would have been about 15,000 of us, double that for Filth supporters and ya have ya croud predictions.

Posted

49,000. Based on what was at the G last weekend for our game, i'd say we had about 16-18,000 of that 28,000 and that's a home game.

That said, i hope the supporters that went last week saw enough to be encouraged to come again.

Posted

Unfortunately, the true fickle nature of the 'loyal' Melbourne Demons supporters will rear its head this weekend.

We play Collingwood again reasonably soon in QB clash, which is OUR home game. Not sure if many Demons will turn up this week.

my guess is, 47, 500..

GO DEES!!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
