Was going to suggest Waterfront. Only one within walking distance.

Mightvhave to wander in around 12 for a couple of pints before the game.

Sounds like a plan, keep an eye out for a fella with a grey stubble beard sporting a new Jonesy 300 cap. Mrs DW was very nice buying it for me.

North have just reported all their players and staff have returned negative results. One pundit on Twitter asked whether they'd tested negative for talent ?

Come on mate, enough of the Tasmanian jokes.  You'll upset Nasher and Clintosaurus et al.

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.

Correct if I'm wrong but every time we play North at Blundstone they end up kicking with the wind in the first quarter meaning that we were always too knackered to take advantage of it in the last?

The most minor of minor danger games this one, if we can't handle the wind. 

In 2017 we had it in the second and fourth quarters - Q2, kicked 6.5 to 2.0, came into the last quarter six points down, kicked 2.4 to 2.2 and lost by four. Classic Melbourne.

We usually go to the Waterfront Hotel before and after. It's near the ferry stop and then a short walk to the ground. It gets pretty crowded but they have  a large outside area which is great when the weather's good, which it should be.

Thanks mate.

Thanks for clarifying. Your MFC memory is off the charts.

I know in 2019 we kicked 1.7ish in the last qtr with the wind including Preuss missing from 10 mtrs out directly in front.

Bad things happen at that ground.

We got Boon bay 12. Couldn’t get anything in Ponting for a group of our size (8). Not perfect but should beat the garbage we’ve had the last few times.

Boon Bay 13 here Nasher, taking my daughter so nothing too rowdy if you don't mind?

Mate @ work got offered some tickets via a local basketball club, they gave him the code and it was good for 20 tickets ?  I suspect the basketball club was affiliated with North Melb!! hehe.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
