Etihad Home Games on August 14th

Featured Replies

Short of a final, I think it will take exceptional circumstances to make me attend a home game (or any game) at Etihad Stadium.

Sorry to those that find the idea offensive, but that's how I feel.

I hate that ground.

I can see where you're coming from. I'll be there but the depression starts the moment you walk into the place, it's horrid.

I'd suggest some flavour of the week riots but it'll be pretty easy for the cops to identify us in the 28 person strong crowd.

a bit of humour never goes astray

I get why level 3 is closed because it will save the club money but I refuse to buy a reserved seat. Im not paying an extra 12 or $17 whatever it is on top of my entrance fee. Its not only me thats going its my family as well. I sat on level 1 last year on the wings and didnt really like it. Give me level 3 anyday. At least you can see everything.

The thing is I dont mind playing a home game at etihad well I do put at least put it against another melbourne club so level 3 will be opened. The fact is its all about coughing up more bucks for a reserved seat.

In the email they are trying to make it sound exciting buy saying the trumpeter will be playing. Yippeee! This will get more people coming. Not!

 

stuff that. going to be impossible to get a seat.

Hahah. Are you serious?

The club sent out an email to me and a few others who showed disappointment to the club at having to pay the extra bucks detailed that had they done the memberships after the release of the fixture the same cost would have been included in the membership anyway. But they chose to get the membership packages out as early as possible and when it was realised that we were to play a home match at Etihad they had to request this from those members now.

Now it's possible that this is all a smoke screen but that is the reason why we have to pay extra for a guaranteed seat. Personally I'm just going to take pot luck at one of the designated spots, I reckon I'll be alright.

This is a crappy situation, I hate the venue with a passion and I'm just about done with going to away matches there. But this is our home match, like it or not, and at the end of the day boys are going to play a home match there so it's up to us to make sure it feels like home for them and a hostile venue for the Weagles.

Does that mean anyone can sit on level 2? or are we all going to be stuck on level 1 looking into the sun

Early fog partly cloudy max 16. I see roof open...

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
