Send the feelers out to all your Melbourne friends to be there on Saturday night. If you know a Melbourne supporter who is in Melbourne that isn’t going then put some pressure on.. it’s our home game. 

I’ve got 4 flying in from Sydney.. coming in hot! 
 

Go dees.

    Nice to be relevant and mentioned in the 85,000 MCG capacity news stories. Will this be enough? :p

    I've got my mum and her partner coming. She's usually a strictly-finals type. She's not seen much live footy these past 15 years.

    So the MCG crowd capacity has been increased to 85k, which is great and should ensure a big loud crowd. But can I ask what’s the difference between 85k and 100k capacity in terms of COVID security? I think it’ll end up at about 75,000 with ticketing issues, which is brilliant but disappointing it’s not full capacity.

    Especially when they will squeeze everyone into 85% of the seats and leave large blocks empty. Can’t work it out myself.

    Think we will be lucky if it’s 65k attending, until they allow walk up entry without having to pre book tickets I can’t see crowds getting close to pre covid levels

    GA tickets are $70-$75 for level 1 what a rort! No wonder games aren't selling out, that is just ridiculous.

    Yeah I can't work it out either. If they're only going to allow 75% (or insert any number) then at least spread it out around the whole ground.

    Last week they closed the entire top section of the Southern Stand yet my section was chock-a-block. How is that mitigating risk? Either spread everyone out or make it 100%.

    Yeah nothing makes sense lately. Soccer at AAMI Park last week wouldn’t even let people out at half-time, no pass-outs due to COVID they said. They preferred to have thousands of people congregate in the concourse.

     A few hundred metres away at the G they let people in and out anytime. Is everyone on the same page here?

    strange you can have 85% at the MCG but only 75% at Docklands

    No there is no game at Docklands that will get 40,000 or above Don't need alteration yet:

    85% capacity well well well.....the pure dumbfkuery of this government .  What the hell is the difference when you can have 85%crowd capacity but not 100%.  The idiots are just treating us as fools,  playing head master over our lives.  Geez this is reaching boiling point with me.

    What covid security?

    Herald sun says MCG expecting around 60,000 for our game. 

    Bit disappointing, thought it'd be closer to 75 given the occasion, team's position and Jones' 300th.

    Yep that is ridiculously stupid and probably more dangerous than letting people outside.

    Its quite hard to contract covid outdoors in open air anyway according to latest research.....

    Nothing, it’s just someone justifying their job. Hopefully back to full capacity shortly.

    I hope this new case in Vic doesn't lead to crowds not being permitted.

    Club needs the revenue from this game, particularly after COVID last year.

    Nup, he referenced that game as well. They are a few hundred tickets short if 85k

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
