Living in South East Queensland, I was originally quite happy when our game Vs the Suns was switched last week, as I'd inadvertently double booked myself with a camping trip.

Was stoked when I booked my tickets for today's game on Thursday night.

Really flat about things being cancelled this morning.

Guess I was really fated not to watch this game in person. 

Yep a real bummer. Got the freebies for myself and grand sons then purchased tickets for 3 others and was looking forward to the short drive and seeing them live then this happens. Then thought OK I'll fill the bar fridge up and watch them on TV. That's also canned so I will just have to empty the bar fridge and watch whoever. Not happy Jan.

Geez, I'm stoked.

Just landed at Coolangatta Airport and some nice bloke sold me his 5 tickets to today's game for my entire family and even gave me a 10% discount.

Why wouldn’t we be returning to VIC and GC Suns heading on a plane to VIC to play tomorrow, as opposed to heading to Perth and having a game to catch up on before finals?

I've been mellow this year compared to most couple of years? I've also limit my interaction on game day threads purely on this but half the time I'm with my Melbourne supporting mate watching the footy.

Don't mellow too much! It's part of the fabric of Demonland!

I hope our game doesn't get re-scheduled for mid-week. The club should lobby hard to extent the season by a week or do we still have the pre-finals bye to fall back on?

That's so funny. I just presumed all of us who post on here have no mates and watch the game in a isolation whereby we can vent our fury. (heaps of projection in that statement).

So we flew up this morning? What do we do now, come back home or go to perth? 

Also why can't we play & just not have crowds?

Enroute to Perth right now, turned around midair

Welcome to COVID reality on Gold Coast. Life has progressed pretty much as normal up here so we were due. Have no issue with lockdown as Sydney is a case study in what can happen. I do however think government collectively has failed the people with vaccination rates and hotel quarantine. My luck has free tickets; food and drink in Virgin lounge. For those who have not been there it great. Totally different vibe to MCC and long room. The only positive is we can’t lose!

Because state governments have NFI

Why go to Perth??  Why not play Suns at Marvel tomorrow night. 

Because they have to isolate for 7 days before playing WCE

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    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
