Same.

And don’t forget the following day is Family Day. Depending on which long-range forecast you’re looking at the top temperature will be somewhere between 20 - 35. 🤷‍♀️ But whatever the weather conditions, we’re hoping for a really big turnout. ❤️💙

We should torch them

We should escape the Ross Lyon vice grip somewhere in the 3rd to last and win by 4-5 goals. If the Saints have improved and are playing at their peak.

Me too! I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited for a pre-season game, and your training reports are a big reason why 😃

I don't even know what an RSEA is, but I've always imagined it pronounced to rhyme with "classy".

Stands for Reserved seating every area.. @ RESA Park.

Do you have inside word that it's on Fox/KAYO?

At the moment they've programmed GWS V WC from last year on from 4-6pm on the 24th of Feb, and the media have previously announced that only the second round of practice matches (March 2-4) will be televised.

I'm thinking or hoping it will be a live stream from the club if it's not on Fox.

That's correct BBB the Tigers game is on Fox/Kayo and a real live stream would need to be done by the Club for this Saints game to be on TV.

Yeah, sounds like these week 1 praccy game will be on Kayo but not Foxtel.

The Foxtel tv guide has already scheduled live games for week 2 (ie - Melb V Rich) but nothing for next weekend.

Same formula as last pre season. Kayo graphics and their own commentators for the first week of praccy games.

Maybe the head of the ground-naming committee was a member of the N.A.D. (National Dyslexia Association). 😜

RSEA Safety is a Sponsor of St Kilda and must have paid naming rights for the old Moorabbin Oval.

It’s scheduled to be 35 at first bounce at this stage. Too hot IMO.

Maybe they could look at pushing the game back to 7pm given the venue has adequate lighting (or at least I think they do??)

Or delay it until Sunday in 23 degrees.

Ridiculous to play in 36 degrees with predicted thunderstorms.

This is Melbourne you are talking about - probably end up being cool and wet.

Am coming down from NSW so hoping for a cool change

Except that the next day is also hot, so more likely correct.

Does anyone know if they charge to watch????? Members I'd imagine wouldn't pay, but how about the average punter?

Would love to see Chandler take Spargo or ANBs spot to see if it work during the year

Good to see them featuring Max King who won't be playing for the first 4-5 rounds!

And no Membrey, so that's another player who always kicks a bag against us.

Will be almost a pointless exercise for us, and with the expected heat, why would you bother? Still it will give the Aints fans plenty of excuses......

Was there today for my sons pre season training (u11s). The ground is very lush! Has 6-7 lights but it won’t be very bright.

Doubt the game will go ahead as planned with that forecast.

It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

Thank You Simon Goodwin
Thank You Simon Goodwin

As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

REPORT: West Coast

The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …” This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
