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 pub that other Melbourne fans would all head to...

Any suggestions? Cheers

    Trust me I wish I was going!

    I know it’s normally how I feel but it’s nice for a change to actually go to the game and luckily I have two up here this season. 

    Just hope we bloody win.

    I normally go to the duke on flinders street to watch the interstate games normally has a few Melbourne supporters. Nice food, good beer and great times!

    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 I’ll probsbly head to the duke of Wellington. It’s ok, doesn’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. They’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. You’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 can’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 :) thanks for that.

    Steampacket Hotel

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

    I’ll be heading to the Lower Plenty. Bloody good set up for footy on massive screens.

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
