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

We are not alone in that problem. I was just joking about having a good side.

If not Alice then Canberra. The cool night air might hurt the bears.

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

Yes

Strange times, honestly, i think it would be best for everyone given it's round 11. to move the Bye forward and push the other rounds back, buy some time to assess the situation and figure out how to move forward 

we know how quickly things can change with covid, and lockdowns and so on. potentially things may look a lot better in 10 days time.

Well the players have been in lockdown so hopefully the NT let us in. Harmes just said on mmm he heard a rumour the game may be in sydney. 

But I feel our team was one of the best that coped with the hub last year and from hearing the players talk about it, they said it gave them a chance to work on things and fix them. 

Gus said today that they just deal with what happens and his week they just dealt with the covid testing, cancelled training sessions and they are ready for anything and they won't let it distract them.

Saints or North at the G ?

North would be a perfect swap if we play next week with zero or say 50% crowds

Normal revenue plus we still get the NT money by playing them later in the year

There is no way we should agree to play in Queensland at all. not at the GABBA nor Carrara. The Lions can get stuffed. They were so well looked after last year. This is one of the greatest overreactions by the Government. Virtue signalling at its finest as usual. Go play in Sydney or Canberra.

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

Unless you live here (probably only applies to about 14 of us).

Giants stadium is my guess. 

Yep, reckon this is more likely than Canberra, unfortunately for me

Any of Manuka, Giants Stadium or the SCG would be fine.  Staying out of Queensland should be the priority for Pert. Ideally we get to play in Alice but I can completely understand why that may not be possible.  It's unfortunate but the most at risk population in Australia lives predominantly in the NT.

Looks like we’ll have some choice of the options are QLD & NSW. 

 

A triumphant return to Cairns would be a bold choice.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
