Spot on LDC you do not see the top sides bleating about where they play.

I dunno OD, Brad Scott bleats about just about anything, even when he's on top of the ladder.

Might be the exception though!

I did forget the "Bleat Brothers" you are correct.

Let's be honest. The whole MCG thing hasn't been working for us over the past 5 decades, therefore....

All home games in Darwin. Let's really embrace the Territory.

All away games at Etihad. Let's really embrace Docklands.

....because we hate ourselves?

Do not play the same team i.e. Port, year after year at Alice Springs.  It is supposed to feel like home to us but daunting to the opposition.

[SPC 3,576]

Slightly off topic, but didn't want to start a new thread...

I am moving home to Melb after 6 years overseas and wanted to buy a membership for myself, my wife and our young daughter. Any suggestions on what options are available? Ideally just want to go to home games and not fussed on seating.

I saw the website has only a section for interest for next year.

They'll have the home game only, GA membership which gets you access into the ground but you have to sit in GA areas (ie not MFC reserved seat areas).

Thanks Dr.... Do you know roughly what the rate is? Do they have a family membership as well?

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,354]

Jon Ralph made a brief mention of a potential Essendon V Melbourne round 1 match next year, in a HUN article today.

[spirit of norm smith 16,651]

Yes... I think Essendon will want us in round 1 as their "whipping boys"... or their b-archs.

Bring it on. Hibberd and Melksham would be keen.

EDIT - you can pay monthly via direct debit on the "Dedicated Demons" plan which is split over 10 months. It usually rolls over each year on autorenew so just be mindful if you don't want it to you'll need to contact the club.

LOve the idea of the Lions  at the Gabba. I used to love getting away up there for some warmth during JUne, haven't played there for ages

Its a self perpetuating cycle isn't it... "You're not a big enough club to get a Friday night game" - You can't become a big enough club without a Friday night game. Just increasing the financial disparity

When do they release the fixture? End of October?

Don't want to play Essendon round 1 friday night. It will be like the march this year where they carried the momentum from fans and rolled us

That was horrific DL5. A day that burns on my memory. Let's never repeat that.

I'd give the club a phone call when you get back SPC and they'll give you the run down. The web site options can be a bit confusing IMO. I've done that a number of times and got what I wanted.
