Oh dear, what have I started here?

I think you all need to behave like pole vaulters and just get over it.

easy to say when the games are headed for the high jump even though they are now just a hop step and jump away

Who wants to play Essendon at the Cattery?

 

If the 25 K radius has gone by 26 June I’m more than happy to travel down to Geelong to watch us play Essendon, just to see a game live.

Agreed and good practice for our game against Geelong in round 22. It’s not our home game so I don’t care haha 


Melbourne supporters faced with the prospect of a game against Essendon in Geelong:

Two games shifted out of Victoria this weekL

  1. North v Brisbane moved from Marvel to Hobart
  2. Hawthorn v Essendon moved from the MCG to Launceston

In news that @Bring-Back-Powell will no doubt lap up, Geelong has chosen to leave its match at GMHBA, in front of no crowd.

Good on Geelong for standing their ground and utilising their home ground advantage. A footballing over finance decision.

Doesn’t paint a rosy picture for many restrictions to ease on Thursday, if they’re already calling the interstate transfers.

Yep. Another massive overreaction by our state. Zero transmissions at the footy even when two positive cases were at games. Low positive case numbers. Clearly we don’t trust our contract tracers. Beyond a joke to already say no crowds a week out. Pathetic.

It's easier to do when the game in question isn't the financial windfall of the NT sponsored game or Queen's Birthday, and it's the first home game Geelong's had in this period.

As to the latter, they have to make the call now no matter what happens on Thursday, and there's no way the government will have decided now what they're going to do, they make all their calls the day before.

Fair point re: Geelong’s first home game in a few weeks.

I would hope that when we play GWS, we don’t transfer it to NSW, regardless of the finances.

Agreed. It won’t make us much money either way. We have very few games left at the G before finals. We need all the time there we can get. I rather play at the G in front of nobody than play at that SCG dump in front of 8000 people. 
The only consideration would be to take it to the NT if we desperately need the cash.

It's hard to see why we'd do that: the main financial damage to our season has already been done. Unless we chose to play that game at Giants Stadium or Manuka, we won't pull a crowd to that game and hence it won't help us. Very different to playing Collingwood, a big club with a big fanbase in NSW.

Zero new cases today.

Hopefully an announcement tomorrow of restrictions further easing as of Friday, increasing the chances of a crowd at the G for our (away) game vs Essendon the following weekend.

I would rather have it in NSW than in an empty MCG. At least fans in Sydney get to go to a game. Good teams win wherever the game is played.

In the paper (Sun) today it said the Cats stand to lose up to $900k if the game on Friday is played in front of no crowd.

If there's only 25% crowd allowed will MFC members even get in? Probably only those with MCC/AFL Memberships

7000 regional members allowed to the game on Friday. Lucky Geelong. Once again KOTD.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
