Hi all, hope everyone has recovered from the loss and moving onto this week. The fam and I were meant to head up to brisvegas tomorrow night but things changed. We are looking at the second best option and find a pubĀ that otherĀ Melbourne fans would all head to...

Any suggestions? CheersĀ

    Really depends what neck of the woods you are in @armstrong35

    The Duke is usually a good choice but if you aren't prepared to go all the way into the CBD, you might want to try something more local.

    Yeah Iā€™ll probsbly head to the duke of Wellington. Itā€™s ok, doesnā€™t have the sound up much but it does the job. If anyone knows a place with a better atmosphere around the city or Richmond it would be good to know

    Does the Bentleigh club still show games and is it much chop?

    It sure does. Theyā€™ll put you upstairs and you can watch the game with fellow Dee supporters.

    I used to watch our interstate games at our other pub the Leighoak as I live 500m away.Ā Youā€™d get a few Dees supporters in there, not a bad atmosphere. I turned up to watch the St. Kilda JLT game a couple of weeks ago only to be told they gotten rid of Foxtel! So you canā€™t even watch our club at our club run pub. Wtf?!

    Not far from Williamstown, maybe I can go check some places there. Rather be out and watch it than just at home :)Ā thanks for that.Ā

    Steampacket Hotel

    There is also the Rifle Club near North Willy station. It has FoxtelĀ but itĀ is infested with pokies. It was my local while I lived there but that was mostly because of its convenience.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.Ā

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
