Sitting here sampling a nice CS and thinking "what time do I need to be there tomorrow?

An Unusual planning event. Normal walk in ten minutes before the start and sit almost anywhere you like.

If this form continues and God forbid we win tomorrow I might have to consider a reserved seat in 2015.

Very long time since that was a decision point when considering the MFC

I will need to get there early to get a seat in the bottom deck. Hmm what time to arrive.

I hate the top deck you need your own Oxygen bottle you are so high.

Couple of points OD. 1,Mid year hols are still on - I,m going to vietnam in about 3 weeks. 2. Yes, I am there, but I go incognito so that my fans don't disturb my enjoyment of the game. Also, the "lads" watch the game on TV.

This goes to show what a tragic I am Bbo.

On the basis of our meagre improvement this year I changed our cruise to October.

Now that I think about it "Tragic" hardly covers it.

Don't mind the elevated stands, but I am thinking to get there about 2.30. Tempted to go even earlier and walk from Flinders St rather than Richmond "just because I can".

I want you Fl og !!! I want to bite your little green head off!!! Where are you? Are you ignoring me Fl og ??????????????????

The answer may be "Yes"

I dislike them intensely R and B

Given the choice of the top half of the top deck or at home watching the tele I think the G will lose out.

Understood, OD. They are not everyone's cup of tea, and I am always a little surprised that no-one seems to fall when descending. Tomorrow, though, I think it is either get there about an hour early or be prepared to go up ...

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
