Friday Night Pre Game Pub in the CBD

[Demon 3185 6]

Any suggestions in the CBD Demonlanders. I am knocking off early and getting a bite to eat with a mate and looking for a good pub to attend before the game.

The Duke is a great pub especially if you coming from Flinders St or Fed Sq. Will be a big representation of Dees at The Duke on Friday night including me.

I normally head to the Corner Hotel. Decent pub grub and service is quick

Yeah, I usually inhale a few pre game at The Duke, but when it's crowded, as it will be Friday, it can be a long wait between drinks.

Been a while since I went to the Corner pre game might have to change that. 

Mountain View is always reliable.

Don't forget the MFC AFLW team play before the mens on Friday at the G

Book a table at the Tippler online if they still have any available. It’s on Wellington Parade and a 2 minute walk from gate 3 at the G.

⬆️ When you really wanna say something but you feel you’ve nagged relentlessly about it so you clam up. Then someone else says it. 😊

Thx JAG007❤️💙

Likewise. Far nicer than any of the sticky floor establishments lining Punt Road and relatively nuffy free.

Few sticky floors on Swanston Street - that's for sure.

I wouldn't give up pre game booze even if I had a chance to meet The Pope!

Well start the pregame booze earlier!! The girls’ match doesn’t start until 5pm.

Booze and pre game drinks is a delicate balance for night games WCW . It's all about pacing oneself and requires high level athleticism to be standing at the final siren.

The Royal, Punt Road. See you there.

Make sure you have a collar though.

During the Northey years it was all always fantastic at the MCG hotel after a win. Swooper would sometimes get in there and mingle with Dees fans. Generous with his time.

Magical times

who can forget being in the dressing rooms pre and post those games.

Northey was special in the way he embraced the everyday follower

What if the Pope agrees to give the dees a blessing?
