I guess that means we'll be playing in Adelaide too. *

* Unless there are more cases in SA or in Vic and the season is derailed. 

Probably on the same plane as us though so if we're hanging around for hours before the game with nothing to do then so will they.

    It sounds like Essendon v Adelaide is going to be the Friday night, which I suppose leaves us for the Thursday night:

     

    11th v 15th? Sounds exciting!

    wtf

    Are Victorians allowed into AAMI stadium?

    Where is it official?

    Yeah my bad. Jumped the gun of the official part. But Ralphy it’s tweeting it. I know he’s been wrong before but that’s on more important issues. I don’t think his sources would spin the truth on next rounds fixturing. Ah bugger it, I’m calling it. I’m going with Ralphy on this occasion ?

    What? There goes my trip to Adelaide! Maybe.

    For the life of me i wasn't been able to find any info about crowds at the footy in Adelaide (as i was planning on going). Not on the SA gov website or on multiple news sites

    Eventually checked the Adelaide oval website. The crows lions game this weekend is capped at 25k.

    No changes to restrictions today, so who knows how many will be able to go next Thursday.

    Essendon V Adelaide on a Friday night eh. Makes complete sense....

    As this rate they'll be putting the Essendon V Sydney game on Friday night in preference to the Dees and Dogs in round 20.

    not at present.

    You can go to SA but you have to test and isolate until negative result on arrival and then for 14 days you are not allowed to go to any public events (more than 1000 attendees)

    Could change by game time... who knows these days

    And 25k can go

    https://www.adelaideoval.com.au/news/25000-crowd-capacity-confirmed-for-saturday/

    That's for this week.  The Club is telling me it's limited to 1000 next week.  Who knows what will happen between now and then.

    Maybe 1000 MFC members tickets?

    Makes no sense that 25k can go this week, but only 1000 next week (unless they know an impending outbreak!)

    We were always going to be the Thursday night game given the other options and assuming the AFL is trying to minimise five-day breaks and trying to avoid five-day breaks where the opponent has six or more days off.

    Essendon v Adelaide on the Friday is unexpected given there is Bulldogs v Sydney, but if the rumour is true that the Dogs didn't want another five-day break, the only other option really is Carlton v Geelong and honestly, who wants yet another Geelong Thurs/Fri night game (tonight is their fourth in a row).

    That is rubbish. Why do we deserve a 5 day break and why do Essendon get a Friday night game?

    5 day break into Port would explain why BBB didn't get selected this weekend.

     

    Only if they knew

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
