No issues with that. Home game on our home ground. A great way to start the season and test ourselves.  Will be a huge turnout. Very happy.

VP you spoke of the victim mentality in your earlier post. To me your statement above is just that.   Are you suggesting that because we have received help, or as I prefer to call it redress or e

You obviously believe in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy 'steve'... Give it a break. How did Carlton earn it?

Surprising if we play crows r1 and its in Melbourne, would've thought they'd want that match in Adelaide. Although if we're playing Gabba R2 would be a bit rough to start the year with back to back interstate games.

Would be unprecedented if a VIC club starts the season with two interstate trips. Has never happened.

So lock it in that we'll be playing West Coast round 1 in Perth, then Brisbane round 2 at the GABBA.

Scary enough as you could be right. But I think we will have a game in vic in between founds 3 and 4.

So round 4 would be cats at simmonds.

We usually get a lot of home games early then do a tour of Aus in the second half of the year. Wouldn't mind if it's reversed next year.

Collingwood and the Dees are set to be denied a Friday Night Round 1 Blockbuster game.

Thread for actual news not wishes. :P

I still can't get used to seeing the words 'Melbourne' and 'Blockbuster' in the same sentence!

Damn, I would have liked the 'Pies first-up. Hope it's not the Crows. Then it'll become all about Lever which puts unnecessary and unfair pressure on the kid. 

Also the Crows going flat chat to redeeming themselves to their fans.

Thats a great test first up.

We would have beaten them earlier in the year if we didn't lose Gawn during the game.  They ran over us in the end, but we had them covered until 3 quarter time.

Lever vs Ablett?  ;)

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
