Cheers from Cambodia.  Watching with a few converts drinking 50¢ beers. Go Dees.  Any supporters in Sihanoukville are welcome.

    Watching first half in bed at home in Belgium. Shower and getting breakfast ready at halftime then watching second half with coffee.

    I’m in two minds as to whether my son and daughter and I watch it at home or go to federation square.

    Although it would be fantastic watching it with all those supporters I hope we can get a good spot and be able to see it clearly.

    Id hate to make the journey in , only to get a poor view of the game.

    Good call, would hope there is no TV lag either. Very picky with that stuff!

    After making the trek from Adelaide for both finals so far (been amazing!) I'll be at Bernie's Hackney Hotel sinking a few quiet/nervous ales from about 1pm ?❤️?

    After being at the G for the last 2 games, i'll be watching from home.

    Plenty of cold beer and a comfy chair.

    However, I have been relegated to the back room on the smaller TV. Probably not a bad suggestion by the Mrs.

    Uncle @Bitter but optimistic should be able to hook you up with one of the fine drinking establishments in the Macedon region?  Heck, you might even get an invite to the Manor if you ask nicely...

    I can tell you that the Romsey pub is no longer operational. The pub in Gisborne was ok a few years ago.

    As to The Manor - private function.

    At home by myself - can yell & scream as much as I like, tape it and watch it again (if we win) - getting texts from daughter who is likely to be at Fed Square! Coming down and will be at the GF. Hope the Dees are there too?

    usually take a radio to the footy and tune in now and then for play highlights (after goals) or where there is controversy etc.

    Last week thought I would reduce the weight of the backpack, go high tech and listen on the phone. Didn't count on the delay of around 30 seconds where the ball would be at one end and they were still commenting on the play from the other end of the ground !!

    Went and bought a $7 mini transistor at the $2 shop for my next trip to the MCG

    tip. i bought a portable inexpensive DAB+ radio. it works great inside the mcg and on the train, where the typical am/fm radio wouldn't. highly recommend - all the footy stations also broadcast in digital (dab+)

    Haha we've all been there! Only to get the rude surprise of the delay. I quite often like listening to the radio coverage at games if I'm there by myself. The trade-off is having bursting pockets consisting of wallet, phone and some clunky transistor unit.

    Really need a smaller solution, might try and get to a $2 shop before heading to Fed Square tomorrow!

    Are you wearing a skirt for the Grand Final if we make it?

    Mornington Peninsula — has the polo season started?

    Trip Gill off his pony, will you please.

    And no doubt nothing noted at the MCG gates by the “metal detectors”.

    Idoubt if they have batteries in them .... maybe they are mock ups from the $2 shop too?

    Watching on from Cocos pub in Rembrandt Square, Amsterdam with Skuit. I just witnessed a Richmond supporter go feral there and swear constantly at anyone near him in the 2nd half. Classy effort. (They really are everywhere).

    No idea yet. I could watch at home by myself or go into Fed Square. I genuinely haven't made up my mind but I'm becoming more anxious as the match draws closer...

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
