    You can fly to Asia for that amount ....Australian airfares are way too high.

    On the other hand by comparison to what thy used to charge us that's a bargain.

    Now all you have to do is to find some accommodation under $200 a night !

    Enjoy yourself ... a nice 10 goal first quarter would be good and then outscore them by around 2 goals each quarter for the rest of the match. Somehow I doubt that will happen. The low clubs always think they have a chance against us ... and we always seem to give it to them.

    Ill be there, have bought tickets already, going with a fair few Lions supporters.  For the out of towners, you have a few options before the game, the German club on Stanley street has good beer and a killer pork knuckle.  There is the Pinapple hotel up the road also.  Both are very busy before hand.

    Up here already got my tickets.  Great to have two games in Qld after none last year, although disappointed we are no playing at Metricon/Carrara as it's a great stadium.

    Same here, flying down from Rocky. Do you reckon the club will bring up merchandise up to sell?

    If this is the Tilly I sat next to at the Bulldogs game at Casey many years back, it would have been a very interesting game if there were any Tiger fans about.

    Tilly doesnt hold back.......

     

    Come over to Philippines on your way home Tilly. Plenty of good bars there to watch the footy at.

    Nope.

    Visiting workmates in Pampanga and Subic Bay, and family in Tablas / Romblon.

    Flip missus loves her Demons, and will make sure we are somewhere we can watch them play.

    I will be the only white fella in a small town (Alcantara), probably with a makeshift esky full of beer, shouting at the screen at a hot, dark and smelly internet cafe full of confused or scared locals.. 

    Will take my Dees stickers there and leave a souvenir so people can remember the crazy drunk western guy.

    Yeah thats true, it's also easter weekend so that's not a bad price really.. accommodation may a killer.

    Thanks mate should be good fun, have a feeling we will stroll it in for our first win on the season.

    If any demonland members are looking for accommodation; then contact me, and I'll get my travel agency to quote you cost prices.

    The more melbourne supporters at the ground the better.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
