Honestly, just being able to watch the team play on TV this season is a bonus. Where the games are do not really matter.

Good for those of us living in Sydney, we may be the only people at the Saints/Kangas game. As for the other games they may be harder to get into with only 10,000 seats but will remind me of the early years of the swans up here.

I'm glad we are not playing the Saints any time soon.  they are in good form

ditto GC.

 

I guess we will be up in QLD in ~4-5 weeks time after NSW?

Gold Coast in Sydney next week, Hawthorn the week after. Both at Giants Stadium.

Would you prefer a Thursday loss and be [censored] off all weekend? :P

Giants Stadium!

Damn I can walk to the SCG, still its not a bad place to watch a low attendance match its still just like a big country ground.

Melbourne v Gold Coast, Giants Stadium, 6.05pm AEST    

is this a misprint? who plays at 6pm on a Sat night?

So does this mean Rounds 8 and 9 will be vs GWS and Sydney? Surely, if so, both will be away games.

That will mean that after Round 9, we'll have had 2 home games and 6 away games.

Meaning that we'll need to have at least 6 home games somewhere else to come. Presumably will have to be in NSW against other sides to join us, or in another state.

At least that Hawthorn game should be on FTA for us. Which is inexplicable given how we're playing.

Sensible move, which is within a bee’s appendage of being too late. The only alternative is to abandon the season; to have waited any longer would have meant the inevitable marooning of the Victorian clubs in Victoria. This way, they get out while they still can.

GF should be played at the home ground of the highest ranking team. Hopefully that becomes a lasting change, in the era of a supposedly national competition, there is no reason for the MCG to have dibs on every grand final and this is proof.

That’s to cater for the WC v Adelaide game which starts at 3:20pm.

Pretty sure home games have been thrown out the window. The AFL just wants games played for $.

    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.

    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
