I’m coming back to Australia for the first time in 4 years . Last melb game I went to was the semi final win over the hawks. What’s the weather forecast like Friday? Tempted to go see the pies game. I’ve got a seat in the MCC for the blues but this week could be a cracker 

The cold and wet weather forecast for Friday night I believe is just another piece of ‘fake news’ that the ferals are putting out there to try and keep fair weather Demon supporters away - but bring some wet weather gear just in case

    It might drizzle a little in the afternoon but don't think it will be a downpour. Certainly not enough to deter supporters from getting there.

    I've already had a sulk about the AFL Members being sold out.  Could only get seats on level 4 🤢

    You picked a great game for first of the season! It’s gonna be MASSIVE. The tide has turned and who wouldn’t wanna be there to witness what’ll likely be a huge win for us?! 

    And it’s awesome that you’re making the trip down for this considering - among other things - the weather is not what you’re used to.

    So if Queenslanders can cope with our winter conditions, Victorians can and should, too. 

    End of lecture/pep talk

    Pretty poor and uneven fixturing by the AFL to schedule us 5 games in a row away from the G.

    I think we did pretty well to go 3-2 considering we went Adelaide-Geelong-Alice Springs-Docklands-Perth.

    Hopefully we get a lot more MFC fans than on QBDAY as were clearly outnumbered that day.

    Oh god no, I hate watching on TV, nothing worse.  I feel much more in control at the ground, you can see the mistakes coming 😄

    Doesn't help that Collingwood have by far the most representation of all AFL Members.

    It can often resemble the Collingwood members reserve.

    From level 4? They look like ants. At least they have free oxygen bottles under the seats!

    Just the ageing process WCW. Some days are diamond some days are stone.

    Dees have been away from the G for 5 weeks. And there will be legions of filth having won 10 in a row. I reckon there will be a monstrous crowd.

    Yep so plan for level 4 at the top or get there 2 hours early. Here's an idea play a seconds game to keep everyone amused.

    All I want for this game is no more obnoxious and pedantic opposition supporters in the corporate suites behind me. I had bad experiences in the Freo and Sydney games. Can't stand a loud mouth Pies supporter for the whole game!

    My routine is a few froffs then just roll out into the bottom lvl standing 5 mins before the opening bounce.

    I've got my ticket. In MCC members, so hopefully we'll outnumber filth supporters.

    Yep Level 2 (4 mad and very vocal Demon supporters) - No alcohol area - not many of the filth get up there for obvious reasons.

    Can't stand Pies supporters anywhere, anytime. Especially at the moment as they are even more arrogant than usual.

    I used to do that when my legs worked well K. Not on these days.

    Too right I'll be there. Missed the Queen's Birthday game, but my daughter, a blues supporter, went with her diehard Dee's supporter partner. She was shocked at the behaviour of Collingwood supporters, giving it to Dee's supporters as they left after the game. Carried on like they had just won the flag. Not to mention the filth bench mouthing off at Max as he went off injured (I have it on good authority he gave them a big spray back, especially Maxwell). We owe this mob big time. Expect CP5 to have a big one

    Goodwin saying the club are hoping for 85-90K is wishful thinking.

    Suspect it will be between 67-72K.

    Having said that, weather permitting, the Pies could bring 40K to this and that will make it go close to 80.

    Very much hoping there 40K+ of us there.

    Weather should be no excuse, Id happily be sitting shirtless in a hail storm to watch this one. Hopefully our fickle fanbase come out in droves to support this team. Might not watch as good a Melbourne side ever again.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
