Got my tickets this morning, no probs.  Reserved seat in a dedicated area for Melbourne members for the Dees game.  Very happy!

    Serious question DF what is your motivation for going to Adelaide? Would you go to a normal MFC game in Adelaide? Will you go to any other game that weekend? I have genuine interest in Why.

    A couple of  points of motivation, apart from watching the Dees in win #5 for the 2023 season OD:

    -  free accommodation in a mates apartment, within walking distance of Adelaide Oval,

    -  Mrs DoF and I enjoy visiting the SA wine regions and beaches.  We’ll drive from Canberra, and make a bit of a holiday of it.

    The Dees game is followed by another game (Port and somebody) so we will probably stay on for that.

    Yes, we went to watch the Dees [censored] Adelaide at AO last season.

    OD this is the same question I've been putting to my friends who have jumped on it, I'm trying to find out as well.

    "The many fan ideas for the round included United Round, AFL Roadshow, Footy Fiesta, The Big Show, Family Round, Connection Round, Roving Round, Premiers Round, The Grape Escape, Hanger Round, Round Five!, AFL Mega, Celebration Round, All-in Round, Magnetic Round, Destination Round, Fanatics Round and Festival of Footy".

    How they picked 'Gather'.with those suggetions...

    Someone has a sense of humour suggesting to call it:  Round 5!

    The name (and the idea for that matter) is terrible but so are most of the other names dreamt up in that brainstorm session.

    At the risk of cultural appropriation (but hey the AFL already does that anyway) Corroboree Round has a nice ring to it with all the clubs converging on one place like the traditional indigenous corroborees.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.

      It's Game Day and the Demons have traveled to Alice Springs to take on the Saints and they have a massive opportunity to build on the momentum of two big wins in a row and keep their finals hopes well and truly alive.
