Have tickets been released for the MCG date?

Bookings will be required for the Australian Sports Museum leg of the tour, and will open on Monday 8 November, as well as for Bunjil Place. All other locations will be available for people to access on a walk-up basis.

Bunjli Place is next to Fountain Gate Narre Warren. 
Part of the City of Casey and probably easier for some down there to get to than Casey Fields. 

 

Thanks DW; quite right and, re access, I guess so. I presume our Casey fan base will see it this way. Up at the 'city end', 15ks from 'The Fields', and so further for this southsider!😏

Have to say it.

As much as this is a fantastic initiative by the club (and i'll be at the G on Dec 5) I must admit it's a bit annoying that the North & West suburbs weren't factored in to the equation for venues.

Whilst we aren't in the traditional heartland, there are a considerable number of existing Dees fans and judging by the Auskick levels, an increase in the younger fanbase as well.

Would have been great to have something say at the AFL Store Highpoint .

I am happy to drive with my Dad almost anywhere to get a photo of myself and him holding up the Melbourne Football Club's 13th Premiership Cup.

All I ask is that hopefully we can temporarily take off our masks when getting a photo? If that is allowable?

It will also be quite difficult to see with the amount of tears of joy in my eyes. This is definitely a memory worth taking a photo of. I just hope I am not too much of a blubbering mess. 😭We have all ridden the ups and downs of almost merging, disappointment, humiliating defeats and frustrating seasons. However, this event has been 57 years in the making! Our first flag since 1964! Now is the time to celebrate our Premiership triumph!

GO DEMONS!!!

Hopefully the photos can be taken outside a building

Well reasoned, 13th. Get on to the club? I was feeling like you when I posted above.

It mentions an interstate tour early next year. 

I hope it bloody comes to Qld.

Hopefully the boys come up to Mooloolaba for early season training and show off the cup then. 

Fingers crossed.

Shepparton the closest to NE. Wangaratta or Wodonga could be included in the trip to Sydney?

Meanwhile I hope to get to the G on the 5th with a big weekend with the mates who have been attending for 40 years.

i did suggest the club try and establish some alliances with restaurants in the city to distribute the crowds around the city.

for the mcg day i expect only double vaxxed will be allowed in

but what about kids under 12?

i've got 2 grandkids, both members who can't be vaxxed yet who are dying to go

They would have to let them in. I have a daughter under 12 as well in the same position.

Got me thinking how would they prove it anyway? My daughter doesn't have a phone to show a vaccine passport even if she could get the jab.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
