    And that means people aren't aloud to watch it in a crowd environment with other supporters?

    The sports bars in the Casino are probably your best bet. The Pub @ Crown gets too rowdy with young idiots for my liking.

    Right in the centre of crown is the sports bar that has three huge screens which the football will be on..

    The other is the steak house which is the old All stars cafe... it has all the sports going (eight screens with three main projector screens) and the most popular usually has the sounds so that will most likely be the AFL game (the steak house is near the cinema at the south wharf end

    Be careful, now that there are two of you the bouncers may call you a gang.

    Is it? I thought One HD had dropped the footy and it's now just on Ten, which is standard definition.

    Correct weight.

    Totally agree. Went last Saturday night to catch a flick and afterwards went into the Casino Sportsbar area and was set upon by 12 security guards trying to apprehend one big bloke who they were struggling to contain. After quickly getting out of the way of this posse, they proceeded through some doors, much to the apprehended's disgust - which probably led to areas not covered by cctv.

    Some scene. :rolleyes:

    I know nothing...

    my point was just that i didnt want anyone assuming that it was on foxtel and therefore not on their own tv. watching it with supporters is entirely different :)

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
