GWS game is the one after the ESS game and probably there will still be restrictions on crowd size in Melbs. I would prefer that to Adel in the second last round as we are sandwiched between a trip to Perth and your aforementioned trip to Mordor.

Perhaps the Hawks game? Would mean 3 consecutive weeks of travel though, so yeah the GWS makes the most sense (assuming NT let us in).

    Due to circumstances out of my control I was unable to get to Melbourne earlier in the season and also missed last Friday night against the Lions but I’ve secured two tickets to Queens Birthday. 
    Can’t bloody wait.

    I went for the A category (most expensive - was $30 for me and $70 extra ticket) which landed us in the top level of the O'Reilly stand - when I tried the other categories seemed to get me on the fence or a couple of rows back - not my preference

    My son and I are in row D in SBAY25 (Clive Churchill Stand); we opted for the free member tickets. We’re just behind and slightly to the right of the goals (if I’m remembering the layout correctly).

    Me too seat 5

    Were you involved with the Sydney supporter group? I'm sure we met on that great day when Brad Miller played the game of his life against BBB Hall and Cameron the Bruce snapped the winning goal!

    I only went to one of those meetups at the Camelia Grove Hotel and it was a game in which we got smashed… there were plenty of those then. We may have met then?  If you want to say hello, just look for my beard a few seats along ?

    We’re in seats 12 and 13.

    Just watched Neale on AFL 360 

    FMD

    Tears

    again. 
     

    love that man. Seeing him now like this is just [censored]. 

    my most favourite memory of Neale - at Schwartz’s pub day after 2000 granny - the tab ran out.... Neale was the bloke that got stung - had to pay for a round of about 20 drinks... no arguments just did it. Schwarta in panic stations on the phone... 30 seconds later - tab back on -carry on...

    not far behind.. “take a [censored] mark Neita...”

    Can MFC members still get free tickets and if so can we be giving out our barcodes to encourage people to get along and go? 

    I got free tickets (MFC sent emails containing bar codes), but that might be because I live in Sydney.

    Wonder how many folk from Melbourne will fly up for the game?

    They would have had to have left a week ago. We need to do 14 days of home quarantine if we cross the border from Vic to NSW. I would happily go to the game otherwise.

    I'd consider flying in on the morning and flying out at night, but will we be allowed back and forth?

    I suppose it depends on what level of restrictions the NSW Gov imposes on Victorian travellers after the end of our lockdown on Thursday night.

    No apparently we need to do 14 days home quarantine if we’ve been in Melbourne after 27/05. I actually checked earlier today as I thought of going to the game

    Rules may change if we come out of lockdown Thursday night, but seems doubtful.

    Pretty sure if you haven't been to any exposure sights and you've had a negative covid test, you don't have to self-isolate when you get there

    Yeah, it's all about what the NSW Gov says once restrictions are eased. I reckon they might allow it, because it'll add to the NSW economy, a bunch of Victorians coming up for the game.

    Not according to the link I posted above. 
    We definitely need to isolate regardless of where we have been. 
    Only people exempt are those living in border communities.

    Neale on 360. What can you say? What a courageous beautiful man. I was in tears. His daughter helped him when needed.

    That will change once our lockdown ends. But talk is we only be able to go 25km from our homes. Sydney being a fair bit further might put the kibosh on going up.

    Interesting. I hadn't heard that, but that will definitely stop us going up.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
