Fitzroy never go there!!!

Blues, Pies and Dons what a bloody joke Bombers have been [censored] since 2005 they should be playing down at the Cattery 1:00 pm Sundays. Blues the same. These numbers show us that there is no integrity in AFL.!!!!!!!!!

There hasn’t been any for a long long time. AFL HQ doesn’t care about integrity, it only cares about generating $$$

 

Well done BBP.!!

Those numbers are for Victoria only right? Pretty sure WCE, Adel etc get every game on FTA in their home state.

Time to cancel Foxtel I reckon

Think our fixture looks terrible. We have a bad opening to the season and a difficult run home.

I haven't researched this so could be wrong but I think we're 3-20 and a draw since 1990.

Absolutely deplorable by both our club and for the AFL for continually sending us down there.

Our real, and immediate goal should be to make our own home ground a win for us!

So we are moving interstate? We seem to play better away from the G.

LSomeone has to go there and as a low drawing club it fall to us amongst other low drawers or interstate teams to go there. No surprise it that. When we draw like the pies and tigers we won't go there. What the AFL should demand of the cats is that 20% of the seats be reserved for visiting teams.

One of the key items on the 2023 agenda  is to fix our MCG performances.

I believe we won just 2 of our last 8 MCG games for the year.

I got a ticket for the Dees/Dons and Port/WB double header - for free.

Seems a bit too good to be true - 2 games for $NIL??

 

Are you sure you weren't on the Russian booking site?

Years 2009-2014 we couldn't beat anyone so no surprise we  lost them all.

You'd have to assume that it is Victorian Free to Air.

I'm not sure they even know AFL exists in Sydney.

I'm not sure people in Sydney are aware they can attend live sport. Sydney demonlanders the exception.

It's true!  Although one time I was walking home (live nearish to the SCG) after the Richmond v Syd game...

There were 2 Richmond supporters smiling and laughing so I asked them who won.  Turns out the Swans, but you would not know it from the Sydney supporters. The pack of 40 or so all looked so sour I assumed they had lost.  Guess even though they watched the game in person, their hearts weren't in it?

Edited by DeelightfulPlay

I'm glad that at least we've got the Hawthorn double-up.  Rd 9 when the wheels should be starting to fall off and Rd 23, when they should be in full on tank mode and we're kicking into beast mode.

The MFC owes Hawthorn so much for the past 30 or so years that I'd love to see us give them an absolute thrashing both times, but knowing how Goodwin works, we'll probably just cruise and bank the 4 points with comfortable 30 point wins that leave Hawthorn supporters thinking "they're not that good, we could have won that game" ...kinda what they did to us for alot of the last 10 years when they didn't put us away properly by half time.

I think it is Available but geelong don't want to play there until the stands completed, more money more money, that is what fixture is all about.

Ok, who cares? Does the above mean that they have the back-end or second half of the season charitably committed to a higher than normal fixture held at their home ground? We knew it would come some way, to their very great benefit.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
