Brilliant to be training on the G.  Could someone explain the history of why we are not training there all the time and why we cannot  make a case for it. I have always got the fact other Clubs play home games there, but not thee MFC no training aspect. 

3+ games on it within a few days each week is enough traffic on it especially in winter with little sun

    If my memory serves me right it was mutual.

    The centre square was the cricket pitch (Merri soil) and was roped off and often covered.This made training difficult so we would use the old Scotch Oval IIRC.Then we moved to Junction Oval

    So that it can be like a bowling green every week?

    I remember a time when a bit of mud and a few puddles here and there was considered quite acceptable on a footy ground.

    MFC will be providing full coverage post game on the website. Two full teams of 18 v 18  with 4 available on the bench. 40 fit players - yea!

    I heard it was to be 18 vs 17 to make sure we get a win

    It must be something to do with keeping the turf in decent condition, otherwise you’d think we could do it. Every single other club has their own training ground, as we are aware! We wouldn’t be to train on it during the summer, tho’.

    Our next opponent should be Essendrug next week, why should other teams get the full benefits of a compromised situation, whilst we are totally disadvantaged 

    Fix it up AFL. You pay yourselves enough

    I totally agree with you on this, we should have the advantage of this situation.

    It is absurd and obviously hasn’t been thought through

    One of my favourite posts ever on DL. I loved that show as a kid.

    I have the DVD's of every episode.

    Not a bad fix at all. Love seeing Hunt dash with the ball, involved in quite a few goals.

    No weid or Tmac goals...

    Good to see some Harley Bennell Class in that goal.

    Any idea of final scores? (Just to see goal/behind ratio)

    Tomlinson vs Weideman in the ruck and tommo won easily in one of the clips

    If My maths/eyesight is correct:
    Red 10 Goals Blue 9 Goals

    Red Goakickers: 4 Melksham, 2 Fritsch, 1 Bennell, Hanna, Hunt, Pickett

    Blue Goalkickers: 3 Brown, 2 Spargo, 1 Bedford, Jordan, C Wagner, Neal-Bullen

    Happy to be corrected if someone saw these differently

    Concerningly no goals to Tommy Mac or Weeds

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • 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.
