    Any idea why they've once again closed the top level of the southern stand (AFL members) despite rain forecasted on Saturday night?

    Will this be a post COVID 19 feature whereby they close the top level for low-moderate crowds at the expense of most fans who will all get wet on rainy days?

    Oh well at least at least the MCC members are catered for in terms of under cover while the rest of us plebs will have to sit in the wet and have the flu for the next 2 weeks while the entire top level is closed.

    weather forecast has improved

    coldish (15/16 deg at start of play),  light wind, quite low probability of rain

    Slight change of topic, but can anyone tell me how I go about getting tickets for Melbourne vs Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval? Any advice much appreciated.

    No I’m not, but from what I’m reading members aren’t sitting where they should be and lots of people are encountering problems when trying to purchase tickets. I’m a Sydney based Redlegs member, I normally get to Melbourne 3-4 times a year for games. I would normally buy guests passes for family and friends. My understanding is that this is not an option at the moment.

    I get cost saving during COVID but this isn’t a GWS nothing club vs a cellar dweller. This is 1st vs 4th, and Sydney still have plenty of South Melbourne fans that follow them passionately. Closing the top level is a disgrace and immediately turns people away from the game as it removes undercover seating. 

    The AFL, clubs, and MCG need to get their **** together and start doing things properly, our game should never be a chore to try to attend, not when you have a 100k seat stadium.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
