And 3 of those will be pets, who got in on pet memberships.

I'm going to say 14,987

26,000

crazy optimist!

 

12,292

Why is it always the case that Melbourne's home games are played in shocking weather (especially when we're playing an interstate team)? Yesterday was sunny and inviting, hence 60,000 people went to the footy.

Edit: 9.38: Blowing a gale, bucketing down, not exactly warm. Brilliant.

Looking out the window...hmmm. Somewhere in excess of 3. Assuming Dad is still coming and bringing his mate.

Just checked, yes Dad and his mate still coming...so yes a crowd somewhere in excess of 3

Looking at the weather now I reckon we'll be lucky to get 12,000.

16500, im going, go demons.

Weather update: 10:21: Still blowing a gale, but the sun is now out. That's Melbourne for you. If it stays like this then maybe we'll get more than 12,000.


What time is the curtain raiser today?

Can't wait to see big Nicho again!

11:30?

This could break the record for lowest attendance ever.

Weather is not that bad, it's not even raining, but knowing our supporters, they'll stay at home and watch the game live on Foxtel (what is with that, two weeks running our game has been against live pay TV?!)

I'm going with 11,980 and hoping that I'm 10,000 off! :(

Edit: it's now raining so drop the 11,000 and go with 980 :D


12,000

The return of Jurrah to the field has brought with it a Jurrahcane

Shut up! :angry: :lol:

I face palmed myself ok?!

OK. It's 11:26 and the rain has just stopped for the time being. It's still pretty abysmal out there.

The lowest ever attendance at the MCG is 3,614, which was at a (you guessed it) Melbourne home game! Melbourne v Hawthorn, 1931. We couldn't possibly set a new record low. Could we?

The lowest attendance in the past 10 years is 11,682, at Hawthorn v Port Adelaide in 2004. That may well come under threat today.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
