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

Meanwhile in Yuendumu ...

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.

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 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.

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.

I imagine a lot of things posted on the internet don’t age well.

Lockdown was a lot less painful when I didn’t have to watch Melbourne lose while stuck at home. 
Round 2 is going to require a LOT of wine.

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?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
