Tough on the travel for us but harder for our opponents. Rd 9 vs Port Adelaide sees us not travelling coming off a 4 day break.  Port get a 5 day break but travelling from Adelaide.  I'd say this

They should! To be honest my 34 year old friend is currently on a ventilator fighting for life, not because he was partying, refusing to wear a mask or social distance, but because he is a doctor

We don’t really play Thursday games so I have no real reference but I hate losing on Friday nights. Ruins the whole weekend. Never liked a Saturday loss either. Ruined Saturday nights. 

 Friday night wins are the best. 

Friday night wins, like hens teeth?

It’s 6:05pm. Great for people with young kids. Gives you 5 minutes to have dinner. 

Dinner is done by then... but then you have “Dog Love Books”, followed by “Bluey”, the it is wrestle time, then clean up time then books, then bath or shower then books again and then fingers crossed sleep by 7.30 - 8pm.

It’s all too confusing. 6.05pm. Ridiculously stupid time. That’s 2020 for you. 

It has something to do with the WC v ADL game starting at 3:30 so they can head home straight after, and they want a game in the 6-7:30 timeslot, before the channel seven game commences at 7:40.

Any chance MFC members from non COVID hot spots can fly up and get a ticket for the GC or Hawks game?
 

There should be 6,000 allowed to Giants Stadium and we all know there will be bugger all attending.

It’s another example of Dees getting dudded by AFL.  GABBA and Metricon games can have say 20-25,000 attend. A real crowd. 
 

I’d be surprised to see 5,000 at our Suns or Hawks games.

You might have added an extra 0 or 2.

Honestly in this year of the virus does it matter and do we care?

At least it’s a Saturday. Can do early dinner. Shower and movie by 6pm. Have some popcorn and shut up until the game is done.

Let's hope that Ch-7 put it on live,  on Ch-Mate.

Unlikely, I would have thought. The 6.05 pm slot provides Foxtel/Kayo with an exclusive product which I can't imagine them being prepared to forego.

Foxtel have been crying out for better games and now they have a Melbourne game they must be over the moon with excitement.

Get Perth setup for success. My favorite to host the 2020 GF. Makes sense.  And I hate the sandgropers 

Ditto. Will be even better for them when neither WA team will be playing?

Anyone but them.

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    The Demons head back on the road for their fifth interstate trip this season when they head up to Brisbane to take on the Lions under lights on Friday night at the Gabba. Who comes in and who goes out?
