NAB Challenge fixture confirmed

[DeeSpencer 25,723]

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.

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

well im definitely not going to etihad. 5:50 on a friday. No way would I get there in time. Plus its essendon. No thanks. typical the only time we get a home game against them its pre season.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Would prefer if the Dogs game was earlier, I doubt heat will be an issue on the day. I'll probably go regardless though

Did someone say NAB Cup?

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!

[DubDee 25,917]

Hi all. Anyone know which of our games are televised?

Thanks mate. Guess I'll have to head up to Ballarat for the dogs game then

[Ethan Tremblay 30,876]

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?

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?
