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

Classic AFL to release during the Socceroos game.


Wish it was on a Thursday so Tom Morris had a chance to break the news of Hunters debut 

Not a bad opening draw that.Woods cats, prime time.Reckon it will be a hard ground by then. Need to check previous games results and injuries.


I would’ve rather played the Lions first up. 
 

Any venue. 

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.

Dear Lord. 😂😂😂


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?

  • 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.
