Had to miss the celebrations. I'm not missing the grand old flag going up. The only way to get a prime time Friday slot is to keep winning flags and grow our supporter base right across the country. TV Ratings rule. It's a bummer about the annual leave we will burn for this but we'll be there with you all. Let's fill the G and smash them again. Can't wait. 1 Quote

dpositive 1,838 Posted December 8, 2021 Posted December 8, 2021 It's a chance for Demons to extend the delight. First televised game - grand final replay - Lets make it a blockbuster TV event First game at the MCG - unfurl the flag in front of fans - Lets make it a bloblockbuster attended game First Saturday game at the MCG - repeat the family day content and entertainment outside the ground if necessary - repeat the unfurling and parade the cup - premiership players and full squad involved after game. Lets show the AFL that we are passionate and proud supporters who can watch TV and can watch replays but like to attend matches. Only Covid has affected our attendance. We will gather from far and wide and provide an economic stimulus to the city when we attend games. 3 Quote

Demon_spurs 1,984 Posted December 8, 2021 Posted December 8, 2021 Why does the AFL insist in dribbling out the fixtures. FFS just anounce the all the games when they have worked it out. I find it infuriating. 1 Quote

Phil C 734 Posted December 8, 2021 Posted December 8, 2021 Like I said on another post, would you rather play the Suns on a Sunday twilight game in front of 17 people instead?? I get that Wednesday night is hardly a family/work friendly slot but we are opening the entire season in a grand final rematch that we bloody won. The negativity on this forum is astounding. 2 2 Quote

Like clockwork we were sent there and got pantsed. But now I think it doesn't matter so much even if it would be fair for cwood to go there just once. We smash geelong anywhere. 1 Quote

Provided we're fixtured an away game against Geelong you can bet your life we will be sent to Geelong. I'd imagine the AFL will want Geelong and us to meet twice. Geelong usually play 2 home games in Melbourne and one of those is already confirmed to be Essendon. 1 Quote

dees189227 12,512 Posted December 9, 2021 Posted December 9, 2021 Seriously why can't we play west coast at home? Also I think it's harsh we play the last round interstate. St least we only play essenscum once & I can't believe we have to trek back to Geelong. Is may 8th mother's Day? Great fixturing 1pm. 1 Quote
