So we're expecting a wet and windy Sunday afternoon and they're possibly closing the top level of the AFL members where it's under cover.

Makes complete sense....

    my reading of the various weather forecasts is that the game time should be dry or pretty dry. lowest rain probability is during game time. will be coldish, overcast and windyish (but mcg gives reasonable wind protection) so at least we  will have an excuse for poor goal kicking

    Fingers crossed the rain stays away.

    Given that we kicked 12.19 under a roof, I shudder to think what we'll manage in 33 K/PH wind.

    Bearing in mind I live in the UK so might not be up on what’s going on with ticketing, I saw the guide to match day email and it was saying at the bottom that if you’re a general admission member you select that option and then pay a further $50 to get a reserved seat. Is that a mandatory option?

    If so then the AFL and MCG are an absolute disgrace, surely if you’re a gen admission member you select that option and if finds you a spare seat that you don’t have to pay for. People were doing it tough last year and most held onto their membership last year despite there being zero value to it, to make people cough up more money to go to a match that they have already paid for with their membership is disgusting. 

    Someone please tell me this isn’t the case...

    No, it's not the case: we have a GA family membership, so you just enter the barcodes and get the tickets. Ironically, the reason I got the GA membership was that I prefer sitting on L4 wing, right next to the MCC Members, as I like to see the full ground, whereas we previously had reserved seats on L1. At the moment, you have to take whatever seats they give you, which for us are L1 behind the goals!

    Really glad to hear it, I feel like it was bad wording then. Perhaps saying in order foe you to specify where you want to sit you have to pay extra.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
