Any thoughts / recommendations on taking a 2 year old?

Not expecting to watch much of the game, might only last 20 minutes in our seat but taking the opportunity to jump on the train and get out of the house for an adventure. Got a decent seat on Level 2 as well.

I have taken my kids on my own since they were tiny babies.  The MCG staff & fellow Melbourne supporters are usually very helpful & nice to parents with kids.  If all turns sour, leave early.  Fingers crossed the rest of us Dees supporters don't have a reason to follow you if you do need to make an early exit..........

    Wouldn't it be wonderful if in five weeks time we are wondering how we can possibly fit Weid and B Brown into the team.

    Gosh it feels strange getting ready to head to the G today, we are allowed back and it feels great. 

    What a cracking day and I just hope we win. That's all that can happen today and no injuries. 

    I am on my way to the MCG. It is great to be going to the footy again. CARN THE DEMONS.

    On my way to the G. Feeling like a kid on Christmas morning. Can’t wait for the moment the boys run out and the song plays. I’ll be disappointed if we don’t get 30k there today. It’s a perfect day for footy

    Got a table booked in front of one of the big monitors at "Sporties" Bar in Launceston. Hope some other tragic supporters might be there as well. Did the Boags Brewery tour on Thursday and met a couple of Dee's people from Ararat. Small world.

    You know my favorite thing about round one? The montage, nothing better than a good footy montage. I wish I had montage guy's voice I'd voice over my whole life.

     

     

    So glad Luke Jackson is back, I reckon wed have made the finals last year if we didn't lose him to that hammy, hes a nightmare matchup for our opponents and doesnt need to get the footy to have a big impact, a bit like Nic Nat.

    3AW putting the boot into us pre-match

    Lots of “soft culture” cheap shots? Or actually some thoughtful analysis?

    Great to see Junior back to present JJ with his jumper.

    Goos to see former Melbourne great James McDonald in the changeroom doing the jumper presentation alongside James Jordons mum Prue.

    And Gerard Whateley still sooking it up as to why we didn’t volunteer to play at Marvel to allow Essendon to play here tonight.

    Let it go Gerard.

    Surely you are not surprised DJ after all we deserve it.

    Basically that we have gone nowhere over the last 3 years and that our coaching team is now almost dysfunctional with Yze and Williams in the wing. Bartlett wasn't spared either. Inability to sign Oliver etc

    Nothing that most of us haven't been saying for a year or two... bottom line Goodwin disappoints

    Clearly not everyone is in agreement with the side selected, really looking for similar intensity and pressure to that of the first two games. Anything less is unacceptable.

    Just saw Charlie Spargo at the jumper presentation. Ive not been his biggest fan but there is no doubting Charlie prepares and delivers 100% of all he has got within himself. You could see the intensity on his face. Go well kid.

    I still can’t work out why they didn’t change our game to a 1.10pm start and play the other game here this evening? Would have allowed plenty of time in between to quick clean/prep

    Big honour to receive your jumper from Junior. Play well Jimmy J.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
