Only one game in vic.

Good result for Channels 7 and fox in terms of their coverage.

It's mazing how much a difference crowds make even when watchin on TV

Weirdly though, Ch 7 are only broadcasting two games.

    Olympics-related, surely.

    Unless games are also on 7Mate?

    I think there were only two last week, as well.

    Nah, going by AFL site all the games on Sunday are on Fox.

    Would think due to Olympics, but still, not great.

    @Pennant St Dee - where do the clubs train in WA when staying at Joondalup Resort in "lockdown"?

    Edit: Please ignore - I see that it's going to be different now:

    Semi-related, but this is FANTASTIC from our sponsor:

    And to make their stay even more comfortable, club sponsor Red Bull have already come to the party.

    The energy drink giant is arranging the installation of a golf simulator, table tennis tables, video game consoles and even a basketball ring in the corporate spaces inside Optus Stadium.

    Winning is the only option despite any adversity we'll face in the coming days.

    If you're losing to Gold Coast Suns, you're not making top 4.

    Well, we will see how good we are.

    We're allowed to train on Optus apparently, so you'd think they'd do that a bit...

    Our best chance in 21 years in having a genuine tilt at the flag and we may not get to go to another game in Melbourne.

    Pretty peed off , After paying for club  memberships, reserved seats and finals tix priority, for the whole family  two years in a row during tough times which is turning out to be money down the drain

    I don't think it's "money down the drain" if it has assisted in putting us in "Our best chance in 21 years in having a genuine tilt at the flag".  Try to look at the big picture ...

    Yes I understand the big picture, and  it’s a helluva donation with no discount or compensation from the club for the sacrifice. Times are pretty tough with being laid off from work for a fair chunk of the last two years.

    I’m more upset about the possibility of being robbed of the journey and going to the finals games .

    Will this be another Cairns disaster?

    Flying in on same day & how long to prep for the game at 3pm??? why not a night game to give the players a chance to assimilate  with their environment as Cairns they landed at lunch time and had to play a game in 3hrs!

    The script of MFC shafting is coming

    I agree with your comment.

    You're allowed to be upset and angry that Victorians MFC members (ie - the bulk of us) may miss out on a rare opportunity to see their beloved club play in a finals series.

    Hopefully COVID goes away for at least a couple of months and finals will go ahead at the G.

    A Perth only finals hub would be the ultimate middle finger to all Victorians who have put up with so much since March 2020.

    every club is dealing with FIFO and playing outside their states, such as NSW teams for the past 6 weeks

    No more excuses Demons, get it done. win 3 from the last 4, make top 4 and hit finals hard

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
