I live in craigieburn just up the road from where Richmond train at highgate reserve.... Looks a treat no cricket pitches goal posts still there

Seeing as my drivers licence is suspended I'm all for moving the game to highgate lol

    So just to confirm, so I don't show up too late/early, it's an 11am start? That's 11am after the clocks go forward?

    Leeroy is far too good of a player to be tagging in all honesty.... There's pretty much no match up for Leeroy with his athleticism

    I've seen him play reserves footy in the past..... Absolute joke..... As you're well aware he's a high quality player

    sorry, brad...

    no possessions for you... :)

    Ha. Good banter. Actually wouldn't mind seeing him try.

    posted tonight by scooter23 on bomberblitz tonight...

    "Let's beat these Melbourne dogs..... I'm running in off the square and taking someone out at the first bounce..... Invoke some fear into the rest of them.... They'll be too scared to put their heads over the ball for the rest of the game" ... :blink:

    I will point out this individual to you guys before the first bounce...

    perhaps we should unchain wise ??

    (no, that would be too cruel)... :rolleyes:

    TO ALL PLAYERS, COACHES AND HELPERS

    Remember we are playing this coming Sunday, October 5 at 11:00 am at Gosch’s paddock.

    Goal post issues mean that we may have to move to Olympic Park.

    11.00 am means 10.00 am for those of you who have not heard about daylight saving time.

    Melway map reference 2G E10.

    Train to Richmond station, walk south down Punt Road (city side). If you come to Boulton Parade, you have gone too far.

    CAR. Free parking may be available at Punt Road Oval. If not, you can try the Richmond side streets south of Swan Street, but I prefer the commercial car parks in Swan Street. There is one east of the intersection with Punt Road and one west of that intersection.

    WEATHER. Forecast says 20 degrees, becoming sunny, humidity 42%.

    People, its Melbourne so bring WATER and SUNSCREEN!!!

    Helpers, we have never had enough additional water, so please do not slack off on your commitments.

    Everyone, please bring additional jumpers (if you have them) for players without.

    Scotty from Bomberblitz says they are going to beat us this time. Post from scooter 23 on bomberblitz on 1/10/14:

    “Let's beat these Melbourne dogs..... I'm running in off the square and taking someone out at the first bounce..... Invoke some fear into the rest of them.... They'll be too scared to put their heads over the ball for the rest of the game.”

    See you Sunday at 10.30 am (9.30 am for people clueless about daylight saving time). People arriving at or before then go into the draw to have first go at scooter23.

    Players and helpers who have not committed, or who are late apologies, please update your status by posting on the thread on Demonland, by sending ucanchoose a pm, or by sending him an email at ([email protected] )or by texting him on 0449 821 556.

    Regards,

    Peter Connor (aka Rollo)

    Hi Dees

    I arrived at goschs and can confirm no posts and very faint line marking. Olympic park not much better so I suggest we stay here. We can mark out goals with jumpers and place a marker say every 30 mtrs or so along the boundary. One of our guys is trying to get his hands on some witches hats.

    You mean one of the players wore a burqa?

    Tony Abbot has a lot to answer for!!!

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
