Probably because they are taking into account that Geelong get no real benefit of finishing first (no home final) so they are making it easier to get up and back the highway for their supporters 

One would think they would put one of the interstate games on Saturday night, especially as Freo and Bulldogs will be playing on Father's Day.

Sucks for the Dogs. Hope Freo smash them.

Freo v Bulldogs is Saturday night.

Oh, thanks.  I misread the table 🤔

Bizarre that there is no game on Saturday night!!

Advantages to whoever loses out of Cat and Woods, as they go up against a team with one day less days and coming from the West. (Addit: same amount of recovery days, reacted to LH's error.)

Whereas if we or Sydney lose, we or they get a team coming of a day extra, although from the north.

Anyone know what the go is for MCC? They have created the event, but no info on when and how to buy visitor tickets or reserved seats.

The winner of Melbourne vs Swans is gifted a dream run to the GF.

On the flip side, the loser faces the tough draw to the GF, having to play one of Geelong or Collingwood to get there.

QF is actually a must win. 

But if we win we will likely play Pies and the Cats in the GF so I guess we need to beat them either way 

but I get it’s the easier way to the GF

Was hoping Freo would get Geelong, then Collingwood, Richmond and Sydney were all in the same grouping, after we win the QF

Then we would've had most likely:  Fremantle, Brisbane or Carlton in a prelim  lol

The dream result would have been for Collingwood and Carlton to draw.

Would have meant Geelong v Fremantle, Collingwood v Carlton and Brisbane v Richmond were the other games.

Which in turn would have meant that the winner of Melb v Sydney would have gone into a prelim to play the loser of Geelong v Fremantle or the winner of Collingwood v Carlton.

Edit: none of the above is true. Collingwood losing would have been better.

Rapt to get the prime slot! Can’t bloody wait. I missed finals last year obviously and missed finals in 2018 due to work travel so I can’t remember the last final I attended!!

BACK TO BACK IS ON!!

Why would that be preferable to a Loser of Geelong v Fremantle and winner of 5v8 Brisbane v Carlton playing us in a prelim?

I’m sure your kids would prefer to be at the G watching a final? Start early convincing them 🙂

You're right. I have no idea what I was thinking. Collingwood losing would have put Brisbane 5th.

Hopefully it’s a bit like the 1987 game -blew them away 

Personally I think they are real threat to us they seem to match up well and their backs are pretty underrated

We need to bring our best and I hope it’s a very very pro MFC crowd just like it was in ‘87 

If I remember correctly it was T Viney that kicked the first game that day to get us going - maybe J Viney this time 

87 v Swans was awesome. Great experience. The week before v North the crowd was even more primal.

 

This weekend could not have gone any better for us. Our best is THE best. Again.

 

So this finals structure is like a Dan Brown novel according to the ‘efforts’ in their thread.

Lock it down, people! You’re embarrassing yourselves…

No.  We chose our seats on the Ticketek website when purchasing the tickets. 

Hopefully, the system allows us to choose our seats rather than the computer 'allocate' seats and then have to try and change them on the website.

My tip is to check check all the info on Ticketek in advance of the tickets going on sale.  And have the membership barcodes which the club sends (hopefully tomorrow) ready.

Just had a look on Ticketek. 
It said club members can purchase up to 10 tickets. (I thought is this right?….) I then looked at the Cats v Pies game and club members can only purchase 1 ticket. Obviously both Victorian clubs with large supporter bases.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
