Cards 13 the game is a replacement home game for either Darwin or The Alice.

You are not contributing any money to Richmond ! ( Unless MFC have to give a fee to Tigers  for each ticket used)

Surely the seats selection isnt that bad at the G!!

Its the best game of the year !

Top deck ! Doubt you will see me at Tigers game. Last time I was up there I notice oxygen bottles under the seats. That tells you how high it is.

Carlton game is ok there won't be many of them at the ground next year.

58er I have supported the Dees since 1960. My support is now paying my membership, buying from sponsors  and going to games that suit me. Am I a fair weather attendee at games?

YES. 

A night Richmond home game  that ain't fair weather.

TV will work fine for me that night.

Having sat through some horrible games with more seagulls than supporters for the past 10 years I had almost forgotten what it felt like to have a stake in a game with 80,000+ people.

You couldn't keep me away from a game like this no matter who takes the gate.

It has nothing to do with the "gate"

Richmond have 80k+ members, they will be there in droves on the night before Anzac day.

As it is their home game the pickings for seats by us tenants will be sparse.

I find nothing attractive about the top deck, that is why I will be home watching the game. 

I will not be at any away game at the G against the likes of Richmond, Essendon or Collingwood.

Just too hard.

That of course might mean more room for you.

There has to be a fee otherwise Richmond would be mad to agree.

I was very surprised that this was the replacement game as it is a designated blockbuster.

Would love to hear from someone who understands the financials.

Just as an aside this tends to divide people. I would absolutely take a Grand Final ticket even if it were in the last row of the Southern Stand whereas my mate who I go with often probably wouldn't have a bar of it. 

I'd possibly even prefer this to sitting right at the very back row on level 1 with the overhang to deal with.

Top Deck or standing room Layzie?

Geelong Game I stood at the back of level 1 my seat was in first four rows almost as crappy as top deck.

Would do that again for finals matches.

But home and away games I doubt it. But as I said earlier I am a fair weather supporter these days when it comes to home and away matches. After 58 years I don't need to be at every game.

Sorry OD, top deck. But that's just me, understandably people have different preferences.

You're a member and still get to other games so I wouldn't call you a fair weather fan.

Perhaps not but when it comes to attending Home and Away games I am believe me.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
