More likely that we don’t play in Melbourne than Alice. Lions would have to be kept away to keep the integrity of the schedule. 

Surreal times.

Hope NT lets us in.

There is the issue of Queensland not allowing Brisbane to travel to Victoria. 

QLD probably won't let us travel to QLD so is Sydney/Canberra the only option?

Our home game so we should get home ground advantage. Play it in Alice, have all the guys take a 2nd test this week if need be.


Hope they get to play it at Alice Springs, a Friday night top of the table clash will be great there.

Would suck to have to play at Sydney

No I disagree It makes perfect logic if we can get a crowd to play at theG.

Reduce  to 40% we get 35,000 snd make some money and transfer Hawthorn  game later in year to Alice.  Not Adelaide   Game. 

Hope they play it at Metricon Stadium for the selfish reason that I’m currently hunkered down and doing it rough in the warmth and brilliant sunshine of late autumn on the Gold Coast while my thoughts are always with my fellow Victorians, locked down, shivering and huddled around fireplaces. I’m up for the challenge of single handedly supporting the Demons to a big win at Carrara if Gillon provides me with the challenge.

Isn't it more a case of Brisbane not being able to return to Queensland or us to travel to Queensland?

Would be a big financial blow if we can’t go to the NT. That game is worth $700k to us. 
I hope we can reason with the NT. They seem less insane than QLD and WA. Perhaps we can fly out there early, go into a mini lockdown, test and then play and fly straight home after the game?

If we can’t play in Alice play it at the G and move another game of ours there later on in the year. 

This would be massive for the NT  i can understand their government's position its a shame they want to give up this oppourtunity prime time Friday Night, they have been loyal to us in the darkest of times. 

Would be extremely cruel to prevent them from such a marquee event one in which they thought would never eventuate.

I understant covid is the issue but the players, staff and coaches are quarantining at home and aren’t in contact with others from the public.

Whispering, I'm right with ya, hard to cop these winter temps of 22 degrees. If the game is down there I'll be right with ya. But unfortunately think we may bet our bye this week with a resigned schedule for later in the season 

The best outcome would be a game swap. Move a future game against a lesser Melbourne based club to next weekend.

First question is who has the bye next week and are we scheduled to play them twice.

DJ , at this point you could argue that they are all lesser clubs. ?

Sadly covid has compromised the financial position of most clubs . We sold our home games so we could reduce our losses as our games at G were often against interstate side at bad times( how many mothers day games did we get( excluding this year)  . A couple of successful years should increase membership . Not sure when nt contract expires but hopefully soon .  A 700k loss would really hurt us

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    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.
