Normally I’d be at the game but this time round I will be on a boat somewhere near New Zealand trying to catch Covid. My bad, I booked tickets ages ago without thinking 😭

 

Having a Chinese meal with a fellow supporter in Little Bourke St.And a bottle of dine too!

 

Trying to watch the game on the tv while having a house full of relos over for my son's birthday. Need to make sure all the food is cooked by the first bounce and I have a scotch/whiskey/rum in hand.  Hopefully we win so I can watch the replay when they all leave.

 

Train ride straight to Jolimont with 3 of the kids.
The most exciting thing for me is my 16yr old daughter is more excited about heading to the game than me. Kids are well and truly rusted on now. 


Saturday night barby and a couple of beers/glass of red.

Good excuse to work in Melb on Friday, 

south Melbourne market Saturday then the number 1 tram to city and walk through the gardens.  Expect to use 4 of our family tickets.  I expect and hope to win.

 

Patiently waiting to see if there is parking at the G . Otherwise I have to brave the trains on the way home.

Bloody night game!  

Pretty keen to get along to a few more games this year, the last few i haven't managed to attend as many in person as i'd like, possibly post covid anxieties. 


Handlebarz Sports Bar, Makati, Philippines 

Introduce new Prinsesa to AFL, meet Perth mate. 

 

Forget Philippines for while. 

If Prinsesa is bored she’ll study Nursing degree notes

At home with some venison kranskys and beers. I have a nice drop of Japanese single malt that I may have afterwards should we win. 
I am considering starting to have a pre game joint. Just to see if it will calm me down a bit. Poor dogs take themselves out the back as soon as the game starts. They are never sure if I’m shouting at them or the TV.

I got a nice bottle of Tanduay rum straight from the Philippines for my birthday, may crack that open on Saturday


Get the hour long train ride in and see the game. When I get home some nice cold Coopers pale ale to celebrate the win or even a few more to drench myself if we lose.

All this breaching of special libations being contemplated.

This is definitely like Grand Final week!

 

Would normally be in attendance but I’ve got a bloody wedding!
 

Will have to sneak off and get updates via kayo and demonland where possible.

So rude of “friends” who schedule weddings during the footy season!!! 😂

Hadda insert a lol emoji so DemonWheels doesn’t think I’m serious. Even though I kinda am

Couldn’t believe it when the invitation came and I saw the date - their priorities are all wrong.

Lying in bed with my wife in the privacy of my own home, lights off.

Holy smokes BA, you can do that any other time!!!

Train from Balaclava with 2 of the kids, to take up our new place in the posh seats. Cannot wait for this season.

That’s sooooo Melbourne. ❤️💙

 

Fly into Melb Thursday and try and find my Dees colours.

Catch the train in with my son, perhaps dinner in the city, catch up with extended family at the ground and eat a pie.

Shame E Wood retired.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
    Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
