As will I. Not missing the flag being unfurled.

Coming down from northern NSW. 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.

Who wants to bet the Saints have more Friday night games than us?

i'll take that bet, particularly if you caveat it with 'home' friday night games vs 'away' friday night games

Or be Collingwood.

 

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.

They already have 2 more Friday nights than us and the fixture hasn't even come out yet.

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.

I really like the Port fixture in Alice Springs

I haven’t enjoyed getting flogged by them 3 years in a row 🙄 Let’s hope we can reverse the trend!


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.

We better not be sent down to Geelong. 

 

Used to always be the case. 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.

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.

Back to Geelong again!  2 trips to Perth, away games against the Suns and Lions and both Adelaide sides away as well.


Will we ever play the Eagles in Melbourne again? Or have we just been pigeon holed as playing them in WA every year?

Cats down in that [censored] hole again at least by round 17 they should be well and truly cooked 

 

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.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
