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.

    No only one DF but she is a keeper so gets No.1 status.

    And one is certainly enough after all DF I am only a man I struggle with doing more than one thing at a time.

    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 ...

    Seriously considering it R and B

    Re minds me of my early years supporting the Demons we used to arrive from the country around quarter time of the reserves

    With the sangos and the thermo.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
