Hi all,

Who is making the trek for this match?  I will be there with a few friends, none of us have ever been to Alice Springs.

Who has been before?  Can you purchase beers at the match?  Is there an appropriate pre-game and post-game venue where other Dees supporters will be stationed?  The 'dreamtime' game will be on that night, so we'll need to check that out as well.

Can't wait, should be an interesting experience and hopefully a win.

    There is a dry and a drinking area, assume you can buy beers in the drinking area. No idea yet about pre and post game functions, but is a small town, won't be hard to find out. Last year the Power stayed at the Hilton, Dees at Lasseters where there is a casino, safe to say can watch games there, a few restaurants and most likely players after the game.

     

    Lasseters mound at the game isn't cheap, but could be worth looking into for a bit of fun. Give yourself some time up here, some amazingly beautiful places near Alice so if you have some time, investigate doing some of the tours on offer around

    I'm flying up on the Friday and returning on the Sunday -  staying on the main street at the IBIS - cheap and Na$ty but will suffice for a bed. More than happy to catch up. @Rod Grinter Riot Squad has given the tip previously to spend some time around at some other places - I presume he is a local - so know what he's talking about!

    going tomorrow for a holiday and off to the footy on saturday. Although after today not so excited or confident now. Excited to go and see Alice Springs and get some sun but I hope they play a lot better next week.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
