Out of the 6 games that aren't televised, surprisingly the powerhouses of North, St Kilda, Dogs and us are involved.

I much prefer playing Essendon as our lead in game as opposed to hawthorn this year when we lost by 100 points!

What a shocking coincidence with those 4 teams. How did it happen!

Maybe we can get together with the Dogs and work out a broadcast on either clubs websites. Absolute farce if it's not covered at all.

"Note: Melbourne's 2015 members will be able to attend its three NAB Challenge matches for free."

This is a good move. I haven't gone to pre-season games in the past, but think I will make both the Victorian games next year.

The day of the ballarat game my wife is due to have our second child so might have to tie her legs shut

If only you had done that 9 months ago you wouldn't be in this predicament now would you?

Marvelous thing this free entry. I wonder if that's to offset the travel costs?

It's for all teams. It's the AFL finally realizing that ask members to pay up more for preseason games is just price gouging.

Also if given the choice between a one off fee for a game or buying your membership on the day more (than previous) will buy memberships and that will help the club.

I do fear the line at Etihad for the 3rd game to buy a membership and get in to the game will be massive though.

Nice for us Dees in the West, Fish and Chips at Fishing boat harbour and a couple of beers in Freo before watching the Dees

Don't get too comfy, you've got training and match reports to write up and post!

Anyone in the west want two tickets to our NAB game vs Freo?

I can email them through, not after anything for them. Would prefer they go to a Demonlander before giving them to a Dockers supporter. Feel free to PM me.

The Foxtel guide has neither the Freo nor Bulldogs game showing

Are you sure they're showing the Freo game?

Dees in ballarat hell yea I will be there

As will I. I only live 5 mins from the ground. Better than the 3 hour round trip to the G during the season. I won't miss the pitiful looks I get on the V Line train home either after another loss when people see me in my guernsey.

Is there likely to be any radio coverage?

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
