Do members get in for free or do we have to buy tickets?

Members get in for free but it's recommended to pre purchase a ticket as capacity is about 9000, and if your traveling you don't want to get there and not be able to get in, I think it's $6 to get a ticket if you quote your membership number

Thanks. Will get 3 tickets

not really, we're actually going OK. Only two of those are important players and the others aren't even injured AFAIK. However, there are others, such as Watts, who are in the squad but their ticket is secured. We still have three weeks for some lucky lads to snatch up some remaining tickets

just for once, God, please, can we have something that is somewhere near our best 22 for round 1

Would you say the others are up a chocolate river without a paddle?

pretty much, except for the brand new ones. If you have been around for a few years, and you're not injured, and you're not getting named in a 29 man squad I would suggest your future at the club is in serious jeopardy

For those visiting our grand city of Ballarat for the game the weather will be changeable.

An expected top temperature of 27 degrees before a cool, windy, showery change.

Bring a jacket as the ground is quite open to the elements and there is no cover at all.

Fingers crossed the change holds off till after the match ends.

Bring on the game tomorrow. Can't Wait. Being a Ballarat Demon this is a once in a blue moon day having my beloved Dees in town. I know it's only a NAB cup game but what are they all about? Bringing the game to the masses. Not just the city folk. It's a big weekend for my 8yo and 4yo daughters. The game tomorrow arvo then the family day in St.Kilda on Sunday. Let's hope for a win tomorrow. Surely we give the doggies a touch up.

 

Hey Clucka are there many bars at the ground? Hoping to have a few froffies in the sun before the change gets in

Look out for me Hallowed. Ill be wearing a nice little red and blue number.

No worries mate. If your avatar is anything to go by I won't miss you :)

North Ballarat sports club will be open but it'll be packed.... the other should be the 'bar' under the scoreboard on the 'hill' ... that's where all the action will be!

I knew someone would raise that pair CBDees however they don't fare large in my expectations for this year.

My point was the dogs squad is missing more of their best players then the dees.

Why on earth don't you rate Vince?

Because we don't know everything about footy injuries - see Mitch Clark and Jack Trengove.

Daniel Wells had a foot injury after being stepped on last year. North kept trying to get him right all season and never thought it was much of an initial injury. All of a sudden he missed the whole year.

If it was just a bit of bruising and he has no issues after training today then I'd play him. But if there's still soreness we should be cautious. 1 nab challenge game really wont change much in the scheme of things.

If he's fit play him, the sooner we get Hogan, Dawes and Watts to gel together the better. Would love to see them have a combined total of 8 to 12 goals between them even though they are playing a ordinary team with key players out, it will take my mind off Clark anyway.

Are they really expecting a sell out for NAB challenge?

Are they really expecting a sell out for NAB challenge?

North Ballarat are expecting 4000-7000 crowd.....last years game North v Blues was 7850

not named: brayshaw, harmes, howe, hunt, kent, king, o-mac, anb, petracca, spencer, riley, terlich, trengove, vince, white

take out injured, you are left with: brayshaw, harmes, hunt, kent, king, o-mac, spencer, riley, terlich, white

do we take from this that the above guys will be very unlikely to play round 1? some young guys there understandably but if I was Riley, Terlich and Spencer I would be worried. Kent must be being managed

strange approach Roosey is taking, usually NAB is seen as getting 2 games into all fit players but he is treating it like firming his 22. fair enough i say! just different to his usual style.

Kent bruised heel from Freo game. Expected back next week.

Guys I am on the ticket master site and there is no option to pre purchase a members ticket. Am I blind or is there a trick to it? If anyone has got themselves a members pre purchase ticket, please enlighten me

I've just joined up to AFL live pass so I can watch todays game. Does anyone know if it can be chromecast to the TV? I assume that I can watch it on my computer and I don't have to have a mobile or tablet to see it.

Thanks for any help.

I wouldn't worry about it mate....get here early with your membership card and you'll get in easy.

As I am in Hong Kong this week, l won't be able to catch the telecast. I would love to return back to the hotel room (and wifi) tonight to find plenty of posts on today's match. I am looking forward to report of a big win.

Just a heads up, I am MFC/MCC member and when I tried to buy members tickets for today it said not bald for this event after entering my barcode. Fair enough , as I don't get access to games with my membership. Just thought I would share in case other MFC/MCC members were planning on presenting membership card at the gate. You may not get in. Although in my experience that membership has always got me free access to NAB cup games, or at least it did at Princes Park when we played essendon two years ago or so

 

No worries mate. If your avatar is anything to go by I won't miss you :)

both your avatars standing next to eachother would be even better.

Did the club say it was going to stream the broadcast?

Therefore, if you watch on your tablet, (not app based) can you then AirPlay it?

I need some guidance on this as well.

Ed; can I recall Ethan Tremblay saying he had a 'particular' fix for these issues?

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
