terrible if true,why bother playing a pointless game

Every club is locked down so find it hard to believe “you heard it on the grapevine” from anyone, Several teams have flown interstate under the same conditions & no one has had any complaints. Even if true ...everyone out there is living with a degree of fear & uncertainty so “poor form” to post that !!

According to 3AW there's an AFL press conference scheduled at the same time as our game.

Gil to speak 3.30pm our (Qld) time which I assume will be 1/2 time of Lions/Hawks game. Stay tuned folks.

I might be wrong but I’m pretty there’s no hotel stays on this trip.. it’s a fly in/ fly out on the same day process

Instagram stories seem to indicate they flew yesterday afternoon.


Several times last year I vented my frustrations of Oscar McDonald. He's now had one more pre-season to hone his skills. Today he'll come up against Kennedy and Darling, last time they met I remember they kicked ~6 goals as a direct result of poor performances from Oscar (out-muscled, out-marked, and out-ran).

Today is a fresh start for him, but at least, today will mark my expectations of him for the rest of the season. If he gets pants yet again I will eagerly look forward to the returns of Smith and Petty from injury.

Gill HAS to let this last game of the round to go ahead! Let us see our boys!

I think you’re correct Joeboy. I was of the belief they flew over on the same plane the freo players flew back on. And then fly back after the game.

How much do we need to win by to finish on top? 

Just have to score 2.63 times as much as WCE.  No worries.

So i signed up to Kayo to watch a single match over 2 months today. Damn ?

I hope to god we win or i wont even bother with the replay.

 

 

Pity the poor Aussies who wont have a job in a weeks time.

    Yeah but what if a key player goes down with a serious injury. Yes it can happen anyway but I'd be devastated if a player went down with a serious injury. 

    Seriously the person started this virus has a lot to answer for

    Yeah, don't care about the game at all now. Couldn't care less if we win by 100 or lose by 100.

    Far more important things going on in our country to worry about than footy. Put it on the back burner and focus on those who are ill, at risk and struggling for work. Get everything right first. 

    I hope everyone on Demonland is doing okay during this tough time. Let's make sure we all stick together here. Love you all.

    They haven't called off the rugby yet so I'm keeping it but once that goes I'm cancelling.

    In the same boat Wise, hope the traffic on here continues for a while even if it’s just to give someone a bit of a smile for a few seconds.

    I'd be expecting payment from Kayo to actually watch rugby.

    6:40 is such a late start. Still can’t believe the AFL scheduled the game for this time considering what we all know about Perth’s weather this time of the year. 3:40pm Perth time? Sun will be absolutely peaking! 

    But we’ll still get up, so...

    ??

     

     

     

    Its 31 degrees in Perth at the moment. Easterly blowing with a little bit of cool air now and again. Not too uncomfortable and cooler by the river.

     

    Will be interesting to see how the players respond knowing this will be their last game for quite a while.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
