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:

    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 ...

    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 .

    No doubt you are correct dc. However , for our sanity, I think it is best not to try and imagine what such "comforts" might be.

    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.

    Are you saying she prefers roast alpaca to roast chicken? :blink::blink:

    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.

    • 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.

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 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?

    • 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.
