Reports are there will be a double header at Marvel with one have starting at 1pm the other in the evening. Surely with our day out on a plane and such on the tarmac we should get the late game

    Passengers on board during refuelling CAO 20.9 (4.2)

    The aircraft operator must ensure that AVGAS is not loaded onto an aircraft while passengers are on board, or entering or leaving, the aircraft.

    https://vfrg.casa.gov.au/general/pilot-responsibilities/refuelling/

    Passenger aircraft can be refuelled(not AVGAS) whilst boarding or with passengers on board as long as the No Smoking sign is illuminated(always on) and the Seat belt sign is switched off. Crew cannot venture more than 4 seat rows from Emergency exit doors.

    Last year the essendon game led to us playing 2 games in cairns under a week in monsoon . This game  who knows  when we play and the implications

    I think WA will shoot themselves for n the foot with compulsory quarantine making too hard for AFL games to be played there in the remaining rounds, considering what’s just happened today.

    So a Melbourne / Adelaide hub seems like the best option .

    You would think so. But it’s the AFL so anything can happen. 
    The MCG is also available tomorrow. Could have two late starts to accommodate everyone who had to spend the day flying

    Been watching him today and previously. Will be gone at season end.

    I believe this is a blessing in disguise. Flying to GC and playing them at their home ground on the same day is the worst possible preparation for a game. They are in good form and no doubt would have exploited this. Looking forward to play them over here tomorrow or later on.

    A bit disappointed with Ticketek today.

    Tickets were delivered by sms, surely they could have sent out another sms to let people know the game wasn't going ahead, but nothing.

    Must say though that Ticketek's online ticketing user interface is tones better than Ticket Master - they are the worst.

    I would hardly call wasting nearly a whole day travelling good preparation

    The AFL should bring all clubs to Victoria and set up hubs like Qld last year. How can they possibly risk another occurrence of what happened today? We know the WA government can shut things down at the drop of a hat, and now Queensland too. Play the rest of the games and all finals in Victoria. We have the grounds, MCG, Marvel, GMHBA, even Ballarat. We have our COVID situation seemingly under control. Make it easy for yourselves AFL, and stop trying to appease vested interests. The game today should have been at Marvel all along, it was a no brainer.

    This is why WA doesn’t deserve a grand final.

    They’ve made it so hard on the AFL and it’s clubs during this pandemic .

    Your dumbest post ever.

    They now can get a good nights sleep and a leg stretch and play them at a happy hunting ground for us.

    Queensland Chief Health Officer has just announced that the game will be stopped at 4.00 pm and whoever is in front at that time will be awarded the points

    Yes I would prefer this game at marvel rather than G.

    Ok plans changed so I can still watch the game. 
    If they change it again I give up. 
    Marvel. Closed roof I assume. Let’s go Ben for 10 straight!

    Is this a good preparation? Absolutely not. But is it better that the boys will have a good nights sleep and be able to play on a track they know a little more than GC? Absolutely. 

    More proof that we need to adapt to the changing situations at every turn.

    Can’t believe we went up to GC and back without the 4 points. 
     

     

    Pretty happy we got out of QLD with no injuries though before finals.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
