    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!!!

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

    If they haven't released vac for u12, they won't mandate it.

    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.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
