Bumper Crowd First game

Featured Replies

I'd bet my life that there will be more than 40,000 but I think 60,000 is a bit of a pipedream.

 

Can't believe it's the only game in town and it's not on free to air, i'm in the freaking country for the weekend, no-one has Foxtel.

Channel 10 are slowly gaining on Channel 7's efforts of effing up the broadcast rights.

Thanks for ruining my Saturday.

Not on free to air???!?!???????

My jaw just hit the floor.

There goes my saturday.

 

Hopefully that'll boost the crowd

as an MCC member, last year I went to FOUR games in Round 1... I plan on doing similar this year, I think heaps of neutrals will be in attendance in the MCC for our game, everyone is just busting to lap it up when round 1 comes along and a few will want to check out the mighty SCULGOVE


wouldnot miss the debuts of scully and trengove for anything coming over from adel for the game butterflies just thinking about it

Not on free to air???!?!???????

Thats alright, Just head down to the 'G' and watch it live.

Wouldn't miss Scully and Trengoves first game even if I had to take a sickie which I don't.

 

I'll be part of the 48k crowd cheering the Dees to a narrow win. Driving down from Canberra with a couple of Demon mates. Wouldn't miss it for quids.

Why won't you be there?

We'll canter past 50,000.

To all you guys coming over to the 'G from interstate Good on Ya..Love ya work. Don't forget the scarf & the Membership!!! :)

I will be there!!! Taking my son too his first of many games (real season games) he is 9 weeks old and has been a member from 48 hours of age, also taking my two daughters (1 MFC member the other Bulldogs member) My wife (Carlton) and My Folks (Dad melbourne and Mum bloody saints). Can't wait i have already seen heaps of footy this year but that means nothing it all starts saturday. I go as much as possible everyother year but too see two potential stars in Scully and Trengove debut for our great club will be something. My guess is there will be 46,572 there!!

Yep- add me to turn up---wouldn't miss it for anything.. Disappointed that my two major sparring partners are woosing it and will not get to the game..pityful. - enforcer & Keyser... O well we will send them a report after we win.

So let me get this straight the AFl will allow a F#@KING dirt bike on the MCG for pre game entertainment, but they wont let families on the turf to have a F#@KING kick to kick???

Something is seriously wrong!

Jimmy has arranged this for the DEES Youth round as a pregame attraction.

I'm gutted but there's nothing I can do about it.

Can't speak for KS, but I'd give my left one to be there if it was at all possible.

I'd even sit next to you jayceebee

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
