Whats a good area to sit in and watch the game?

Second thoughts may be watching the games is not so important after how badly we play against good sides.

Assuming the game is worth watching, it depends on what you want to see most. Yesterday I went with a group of people and we went in Gate 5. As it was raining when we got there, we couldn't find seats under cover on the ground level, so we went up to level 2A (just in front of all the corporate superboxes). This gave quite a good view of the ground, although it was a little exposed when it started raining later. Unfortunately we got to see Geelong's second quarter rampage up close ...

Otherwise, ground level in the Northern stand is one spot I like, as you can hear the players calling to each other when the play is nearby, or the top level for a 'coaches' view of the game (and plenty of room to move around and choose a particular spot).

was interesting they wouldn't put on the lights in the first half when it was dark

then in the second half the sky was blue the sun came through and they turned the lights on

go figure

agree on the crappy jumper od, just what were they trying to prove

seems that when they get a chance to wear the home strip they think of some cockamaney reason to wear some pantomine special occasion crap

yeah, i know the tv stations wanted it

clown outfits next week would be appropriate

On this occasions dc i don,t think I can blame the TV stations.

This is making of the MFC.

Clown costumes would fit the way we play dc.

Put them both in the forward line.

Only one of them would be any good in the wet, and that one can't kick ... :blink:

closer bbo? he went way past that feeble description long time ago

btw are you aware someone has hijacked your account? get a decent anti-virus product

I would have suspected the green pond slime that posts here dc, however, the hijacker appears to be literate ( at least beyond colouring books) and so I must eliminate him ....................... "I must eliminate him" ............... hmmmmmmmmmmm.

As he is coming for the Hawks game R and B I reckon the Bar might be the best spot.

We can all enjoy ourselves without the agony going on at ground level.

I am absolutely amazed not one has commented on the jumper yesterday.

I truly would have preferred the white one.

From the outer it is just a dark blue nothing.

Agreed OD. No reason to wear it again, as far as I can see. Let that jumper be forgotten along with the game ...

Well.. at least pay the girls more!!!!

Have you not read the papers- there is a recession looming.

One must save for a rainy day . We must all tighten our belts .sort of.

Hey Bbo I took my GD to see the Alpacas at the show grounds today.

She was most impressed.

Actually enjoyed it myself.

We then ventured into the poultry area, she was not so impressed.

The girl has good taste.

Now if the Dees could start winning I might have a chance there for a young Dee follower.

I don't want to bore you with the intricacies of my work practises but you are aware that the cost of precursor chemicals had trebled in the last financial year- I nearly rang the ACCC to complain .

Next time we should all roll up to Bbos with some garlic , rosemary and a rotisserie .

I refuse to despatch one of them for ethical reasons and also because they have such lovely eyes.

IMO we been showing the white (flag) for way too long.

The team colours are blue and red, so may be a lighter coloured blue may do the job OD?

Pity I didn't know you were attending today OD. A couple of "the lads" were there and would have looked after you. They no longer compete of course - a scandal involving a (former) virgin female alpaca was ( falsely) attributed to them. Enough said.

I remember You telling me about the scandal with the farm hand on the 457 visa.

I still can't believe you didn't know what was happening until the lads started speaking with a kiwi accent.

There is a sad loss of innocence story in that.

The lads were quite naive in those days and thought the only reason people wore gumboots was to keep their feet dry!

Watching them play rugby in the paddock must have been the final straw for you.

Perhaps if you spent less time at the neighbours your flock might feel safer.

    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
