Don't know how I'd handle watching us win a flag at the GABBA while being in a stage 4 lockdown in Melbourne.

It would be a life long dream of so many die hard MFC members/supporters to see the boys win a flag live at the G.

I’d turn up to watch us play a grand final at Ballarat (or the Gabba) if it meant I got to see us win a flag.

    I hope the delay is due to our executive trying Mafia style tactics to get the NT government to let us in.

    be interested to know why Giants stadium over the SCG

    SCG may have 3 other games this weekend, 4 games would make it very choppy by Sunday

    Correct. SCG is a pointless stadium.

    Apart from the money aspect, playing the Lions at Giant Stadium is a win for us. It is an easier trip than going to the NT and we play well there. Lions are not advantaged by this at all. 

    I know missing out on the money is really hard, especially for our club which has worked so hard to be financially independent of the AFL. But, in terms of purely football, this is not a bad outcome (if it is the outcome?!).

    We really really need to beat the Lions, anyone who thinks the risk of playing at the Gabba is worth it, has lost their mind. Brisbane are directly competing with us for a top 2 spot. Imagine if we go to the Gabba and lose this game and as a result end up finishing 4th and needing to travel up there again in finals. No thank you!

    This is the most important game of the our H&A season outside of last week. Make it 2 from 2 and top 4 is all but sewn up! Lose and suddenly we are par with the Dogs and Lions are only 1 game behind us.

    money deal from the Gabba/Qld govt perhaps

    Qld just paid $8M for the NRL State of Origin that was to be held in Melbourne

    Hi DJ. I thought that was off the table because of the entry requirements for people arriving from Victoria. Last week GC were due to play Hawthorn in Darwin but the game was moved to the SCG, even though it was a GC designated home game.

    Giants ground is a good result. Rather  play there than NT. Money situation just about irrelevant now with Collingwood gone as well.

    AFL club revenues are almost toast this season.

    Same but given the length of time the G we deserve the G.

    Cue the NT premier waking up with Horse Longmire's head in his bed. There's no note, but we all know what it means: "This is what happens when you try to make Melbourne play in Sydney."

    Rub it in. I left my house for 40 minutes today to walk around the block with a mask. It was glorious.

    Agree. Hopefully it’s not restricted like the GC game last year. Will be a few loud fans at Giants Stadium if the rumours are true

    "The delay has cost the Swans two days of ticket sales.....They will also be unable to organise corporate functions due to the late notice. "

    What about us? Top of the f***** ladder and still don't know where the [censored] we are playing!!!

    • 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.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!
