Since 2005 we have played 1 home game against Essendon. Why is this? it is absolutely appalling. Another example of the stupid nature of the "Fixture". absolute corruption of the AFL

    Why bother taking the warm up T-shirts off?

     I thought we only have one away jumper now the royal blue and red jumper. I hope that's it.

    Hopefully either the one on the left or the right.

    Not a fan of the royal blue.

    Yes, Melbourne are going to bring out a jumper from four years ago last minute.

    It's clearly the royal blue one.

    What a condescending post and a BS argument. No one else has to give up 'blockbuster' games, nor should we.

    In any case I'd be happy to give up playing Gold Coast at the G or Frem.

    In addition to Essendon, since 2005 we have only had:

    5 homes games against Carlton

    7 v Richmond

    5 v Geelong

    And for example, Carlton haven't played at Geelong since 1997, Ess since 1993 and Coll since 1999.

    No wonder teams have such different gate receipts from football. We are denied access to big games against large drawing Vic clubs and its wrong.

    And BTW we rotate the ANZAC day Eve game with Richmond.

     

    I clearly made that point by saying "when it's our turn".

    In terms of the other points, if Geelong play Carlton/Essendon/Collingwood at "home" at Etihad or the MCG, Geelong get the dollars.  Why is it an issue with you if they haven't played those games at Geelong?

    Also, we only play Gold Coast and Freo once this year.  The Freo one is our "home" game (in the NT).  I you give that game up, that becomes Freo's home game, meaning they have an extra home game than what they should.

    There are definitely elements of the fixture that I don't like, but what your complaining about isn't one of them.  It's also one we have probably made for ourselves given our inept performance for such a long time, both in terms of playing ability and crowd pulling ability.

    Seriously, pull ya head in, I'm not being negative nor am I mentally soft. Fact is whilst we play Anzac eve the AFL will fixture us against one of the teams that plays on Anzac Day. The Pies are out given QB, which leaves Essendon. Yes when it falls on a weekend it's a moot point, but when it's coming off a short break we'll play Essendon most likely at Docklands - which isn't a problem in my book.

    In 2016, the Anzac Eve game was played on a Sunday.  We played St Kilda the following week.

    Hardly "stuck with" playing Essendon because of it.  Which you kindly agreed with.  Thanks.

    Oh really. I was clinging on to the hope that they would.

    Bugger.

    Since last year they've made the arrangement that Melb/Ess and Rich/Coll will play each other the week after. In 2016 the Anzac Eve game was on a Sunday night I believe so there wasn't the short break to work around.

    Interestingly, someone posted on BF that next year ANZAC Day falls the Thurs after Easter. So we will have Thurs night footy, Good Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Easter Monday, break (Tues), ANZAC Eve, ANZAC Day, Friday night, etc This means that the only way around the shorter breaks (assuming they make Tuesday the day off between rounds) is for Melb/Ess & Rich/Coll to be on Saturday or for one of the games to be on Good Friday. Will be interesting to see how they schedule it.

    bet you the boys and gals at AFL house have their spreadsheets out for that one Dr G.

    I make that 7 prime time games all at night bar the Anzac day one .... you wouldn't want to be amongst the teams that miss out on the prime time shows.

    • 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.

      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?

      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?
