Geez, keep your shirt on bub.

1.  I didn't report it, SEN did.  I just posted a link to their article.

2.  The facts are as stated in the SEN article.  No "blasphemy" was committed.

3.  I know.  I never criticised the club.

I think you might need to go a have a Bex and a nice lie-down before you blow a gasket.

Not sure many would know what a Bec is Ds.

I can’t imagine it would slow things down too much. Scanning the QR code at entrances is something we’re all used to now. Likewise, showing our vax certificate on our phones is something we will quickly get used to. 

I did not experienced it but there was a problem for a number of the older members  getting tickets over the internet earlier this year to get into games. As this is a ticketed event I can see some problems ahead. Perhaps I expect too much and of course we don't know the conditions that will exist for this event. In this modern age of technology I would expect an easy system but that seems to have failed in the past.

So… any specific details yet? Times? Events? 

[Delusional demon 82 1,197]

Does anyone have any intel around approximate times for this on the 5th ? i.e Early or late afternoon start

Hopefully the club provide some details shortly

The silence if deafening Dd82. But have faith it will happen.

Fingers crossed this event is still happening? 🤞

I reckon we could basically fill the MCG with Melbourne supporters.

Then we could have a party-like atmosphere while we watch replay of the Grand Final and have player medal presentations and various speeches. Get lots of past players involved and make it a huge celebration.

Have lots of singing of "Its a Grand Old Flag" as well as dancing too.

The main thing I am hopeful of is getting a photo of my Dad and I both holding the 2021 Premiership Cup! That will be an incredible experience. Just gotta hope I don't turn into a blubbering mess when I burst into tears of joy! 😭

See if you can go to the sportsmusuem  to get the photo , less ppl

I assume the club is waiting for the magic 90% double dose mark when crowd limits disappear in Victoria to make further announcements. 

We are currently tracking to hit that around 21/11.

 

[Earl Hood 6,167]

We need some confirmation of the date pronto. I will have to decline a Christmas function for a club event this week on the assumption the 5 December Demon Celebration is happening. I will be [censored] if it doesn’t happen on that day!

Like all things OD it is easy  once you know how !!  It will be the same for this party function and 2022.

Best to get family into gear to get for you if you don't understand  technology  !!

Would love to take my nephews and nieces on the Friday but as they missed so much school, they can’t have a day off. Saturday it is. Hope to see you all there

That would be a shopping centre one.

Doncaster Shoppingtown  is on Sat night 6-8 pm I think  Haven't got the Friday date/s in front of me. 

Sunday 5th will  be huge but hard for photos I imagine that's why I doubled  up!!

Sorry I meant to type Sunday. Was very dreary-eyed

[DubDee 26,675]

Would be very interesting to be listen into the talks the club would be having with the Vic government regarding crowd size. I understand we do not want to make any promises we can't keep if somehow things don't work out as we hope for lessened restrictions. All going well, we will hit 90% double dose in a week and then we should make an announcement for 50K at the G or whatever they decide. should be interesting practice run for boxing day, there will be a lot of interest in the crowd and logistics

Keep the afternoon of the 5th Free folks! it will be epic!

I don’t have problems, I was just commenting on people who are from the older group who are not as tech savvy as others.  Just part of life in the 21st century. If you don’t have a smart phone life can be difficult.

So long as people attending are double vaxxed, there shouldn’t be a limit set.
