    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 :)

    I might head down there. I will post in here beforehand if I do, maybe a few of us can meet up. Half-time blackjack tables? :lol:

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
