Relocation of North Melbourne Game?

Featured Replies

It sounds like the North game will be relocated to Melbourne due to Tasmania requiring people who have been in Perth to isolate.

Happy to take them on anywhere, any time but first we have a big game tonight. 

Football’s all about one game at a time.

You think the players are thinking about North??

 

I couldn’t be happier if this turns out to be true. I just don’t want us to be collateral damage on another fixture problem due to COVID and end up paying multiple games under a 4 day break.

So they’ll still cop a monumental thumping, only now they won’t have as far to travel to lick their wounds. 

Got my trip down there all booked for the game and was really looking forward to getting away, but now I'm concerned. I've got until 4pm Monday to cancel for a full refund, should I bite the bullet or risk 400 bucks, and possibly end up watching the dees play north at the MCG from a pub in Hobart????

 

Would much rather play them at the G than that [censored] hole Launceston.   Looking forward to this game turning into a big percentage and confidence booster for the team.  Would really love to stick it up North.

Marvel is free on the Sunday but MCG has Essendon v Carlton. 

Marvel would be perfect.  We play great there and finally a dry deck for us to kick a mammoth score.

I wouldn’t risk going to Tassie lest another one or even two Covid cases (!) sees you stuck there. Imagine that. The horror...THE HORROR. 

I feel bad for the people that have stumped up the cash and committed themselves to supporting the Dees in such a sh1thole of a footy ground.  Hobart is a nice place to visit, though.  It might be better for us at Marvel.

covid sucks.

Has this actually been said anywhere?

Or are people just connecting their own dots cause Tas govt hasn't made a decision re Norf and Marvel is free?

Not official but they were discussing it on SEN. Tasmania are requiring people who have been in Perth to isolate for 14 days.

Currently only in a 3 day lockdown, so, should be back by Mid week.

From what I understand they would have to isolate in Victoria for 14 days also. (This is under the 'traffic light' system and could change)

The situation seems to be they're more likely to get a special exemption from that for Victoria than they are from Tasmania.

774 said Marvel likely. Not possible to play in Tassie under current restrictions.

If there’s more cases come up over here it’s bound to happen. 
 

Stay tuned.

Not sure if players just didn't read the ground conditions last night, but so many players from Victory and Wanderers were slipping over while playing there last night

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
