Hopefully we get 55k-60k to the game, would be a good start attendance wise.

    That would rely on Dogs fans attending the game in their droves and as we saw in this years game, they didn’t. They also only got 45,000 to a Richmond V Dogs MCG 2022 Saturday night game.

    Always good to start the season off the G with a home game. However a round 23 MCG game would be great too. Last 4 season we’ve ether been sent interstate or to Geelong to close the season.

    Happy with this. Saturday night prime time beats Sunday at 1.30pm or 4.40pm. If the gate doesn't top 50k then that's on our own fair weather fan base, not the dogs.

    Certainly it deserves 50,000 plus given both ours and Dogs excellent recruiting and where both Clubs are at.

    Yes  RD But Will more than 5/10,000 Dogs fans come to MCG though? 

    I reckon we will need 40/45,,000 Dees to top 50,000.

    My boy Hunter to stick it to Bevo early doors

    Saturday night at the G. We'll get a big crowd. This year we opened on Wednesday night which didn't help attendance wise. We'll get 60,000 in I hope

    Also just realised that there’s no AFL game in Perf for round 1. Both teams in Victoria!

    The local radio talkback stations are going to blow up over this. 😂

    I read somewhere that Optus Stadium was unavailable for some reason for Round 1. 

    Edit: And that reason is Ed Sheeran.

    Welcome back to coaching Ross, 4:40 timeslot on Sunday.

    So hang on I thought the premiership teams were going to play in r1 or did they work out putting it on a Wednesday night does not work. 

    Well hopefully Ugle-Hagen doesn't decide to have another game like he did last time. 

    Should be interesting with Hunter playing hopefully. Shacke I doubt will be there . 

    Bring on our dynamic ruck duo.

    I was convinced we would be playing Geelong in Geelong in rd 1 but I suppose it will be the last game of the year just so we can whinge about it all season.

    So once again we have the contrived round of relative equals.

    The AFL just cannot help themselves these days. Once it used to be a few blockbusters now it's whole rounds manipulated.

    Saturday night assuming decent weather maybe 50k.

    Might go to the Hawks v Bombers game if our "transferees" are selected

    I don't get the angst over the Round 1 fixture.  Just what is it that posters are whinging about?

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
