Requesting Casey Home Games

If we're not going to be playing games in front of crowds and watching them on the telly, do you think we should request that we play some home games down at Casey? Perhaps against the interstate teams. Maybe Geelong to give them a taste of their own medicine.

Maybe I've been in lockdown for too long.

Stay safe Demon Fans.

    Excellent idea. I will stand outside the fence and watch.

    100% agreed, games at Casey and in Tassie are always terrible to watch because of this.

    MCG or Marvel are both fine.

    Surely we can train to master this. Not the worst idea going around.

    I think in the current state I would rather watch a good game and lose than watch a boring game and win.

    Won't happen. Caro said last night that games need to be played at MCC or Docklands because of LCD signage/stadia advertising - keeping any revenue stream they can afloat.

    not to mention the need for a properly fenced stadium to keep the crowds out.

    Wont be seeing games at any venue like Casey.

    Casey ground could do with a decent long term tree planting scheme. The grass verges behind the goals are pleasant (albeit no shade or wind protection) but the rest of the ground is pedestrian to say the least.

    Also opposition won't have that 3rd leg they grow, when playing at the 'G'.

    Why wouldn't they be televised?  Have I missed something?

    They'll be televised. The OP is just suggesting that as crowds won't be in there perhaps we could gain a home ground advantage by playing them at Casey. I like the creative thinking but I went to the game preseason vs Adelaide and you could tell the skills were severely hampered by the windy conditions.

    As someone else pointed out as well, at least the signage will provide some kind of sponsorship income for the clubs.

    On that score we could actually make more money playing at Casey as we would have a clean stadium unlike the MCG where the bulk of the ground advertising goes to the MCC.

    This is why Geelong do so well out of their Kardinia Park deal and there were such heated negotiations over the new Perth stadium.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
