I'm not sure how this helps the players during the game.

Before the game and half time ?

and may be a feed to interchange bench

I wish the MCC could set up a live feed, to Perth and fans could go to the G to watch the game?

Great idea. Trouble is the cost to the MCC,  of having the ground open and secured and staffed. Then again if everyone paid $10 they could get thousands there.

This is where we are disadvantaged by not having a home base.  Other teams can set up screens at Punt Rd, Vic Park, Western Oval etc etc etc.

It seems the club is looking for a suitable spot to set up the live feed and show vision to the team. 

 

Edit:  SEN just interviewed Mahoney and he said venues to watch the game:

  • Fed Square
  • Sporting Globe at Richmond
  • Sporting Globe Ferntree Tree Gully
  • Casey venue (didn't hear where)

I guess vision to players will be from one or more of those venues.

I hope it gets across the line! Nothing would please me more than beating Meth Coast.

I wonder if Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Farmer can get a movement going, the official 'Freo supporters who are ok about Melbourne and hate the Eagles' seating area.

Just imagine the ruckus! :D

Yes Jeffy yes, that exactly what we need. Any little advantage we can get to take their focus off the game should be explored.

Remember that tablet set up in front of the bench i mentioned on the podcast. Maybe instead of key statistics and messages and tactical information it could show a feed of the sporting globe?

(by the by i said on the podast that i assumed most clubs would have something similar. Perhaps they do but i have looked for it at our games, on the replays and other televised matches and have not seen any other examples).

That still boggles my mind! Must be some decent binos!

What about hiring a Jumbo flying over the Ground??

Nephew used my codes, and got tickets for 4 people, up behind the Dees cheer sqaud.

Lucky he is with a couple of  mates who can go a bit, as his mouth is Shrek sized when the Dees are playing.

 

Hopefully we can get enough voices there to be heard.


I think the ferals over there will lift our players and they will soar higher than the Eagles. Maybe it will be burnt wings!

So apparently Neil Mitchell has spoken with someone at channel 7 that is prepared to work with the club to ensure that the broadcaster focuses on a select group of Demons fans for Goodwin to refer to for motivation - considering how negative the environment can be. 

They're called a cheer squad? And the dude sporting Woewodins hair style looks to be the prime motivator

Edited by johndemonic

Our Cheer Squad are more than capable of matching West Coast for enthusiasm. I have seen them go wild quite a few times. 

This is hilarious.

Someone suggested as a joke on a Facebook group that we all buy tickets and not attend. Mitchell has caught wind and run a story about it.

I hope the West Coast fans are louder than they've ever been.

Our guys will love it.  You can not intimidate this Melbourne team, you bozos!

The bias of the West will come through the umpiring decisions, one fears.

Do the Freo Dockers have a forum? Might be an idea to engage the purple army to join the cause and use up some food those tickets to support the dees.

It’s all over the evening news here as well. 

Eagles supporters labelling it as “bad sportsmanship” the clowns.

I just love the last two games, both times the crowds were amazing. 

I think a lot of people would go to the G to watch it on the big screen, just a thought.

Is it 100% at fed square?

What a great idea! Free snacks for all Freo supporters at the Optus Oval in Perth if they wear Red'nBlue on the day. 

Considering they're on the same network 6PR and 3AW having a feud has about as much legitimacy as a WWE match. They would have cooked this up the moment Melbourne - West Coast was confirmed.

These Western Australian muppets should boo themselves for being sucked in by such obviously artificial outrage.

And I've seen them be rather disappointing more that a few times too.

May as well keep the energy positive.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
