Apologies as this game is a while away but I've already booked flights with a mate and am looking forward to getting up there for a bit of sunshine (and hopefully a win!).

Is anyone else going up for the game?  Are there any social functions on?

    I’ll be going up there, D Rev. Booked flights as soon as that part of the fixture was announced. As for pre- and post-match meetups, when it’s a little closer to that match I’ll find out where people will be going (Dees-friendly establishments) and post it on DL. 👍🏽

    Deb from Qld Demons sent out an email with this link:

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/300591568197779

    It's to the prematch function but it doesn't work overly well for me. I assume it's because I don't have Facebook.

    I'll be sure to bring my boots.  Does anyone have a hamstring I can borrow?

    I don’t hold the same level of hate

    and I’m also quite magnanimous

    Dees fans congregate before/after the match at Emerald Lakes Golf Club which has a sports bar. It’s a very short walk to the ground.

    Tip: bring an empty water bottle to the game as they make you empty yours before entering the stadium. You can then refill it inside.

    Sounds like a plan.

    Sounds awesome mate, in hindsight I wish I'd stayed a little longer but needs must at home. Let me know if you want to catch up

    This is where I’ll be pre-game…

    A pregame function has been organised by the Queensland Demons…

    https://m.facebook.com/events/965645011482317/?acontext={"source"%3A"29"%2C"ref_notif_type"%3A"plan_user_associated"%2C"action_history"%3A"null"}&notif_id=1681080919784149&notif_t=plan_user_associated&ref=notif&wtsid=rdr_0NwqigKZOlLusaOtb

    It clashes with the Casey game which is the curtain-raiser for the main game. Personally, I’ll be at the Casey game but the function is there for anyone who’s interested.

    Just another reminder that Kalani White will be playing in an under-16s Academy match vs Sydney Academy at 10:30am on Sunday the 7th of May (the day after our match) at Heritage Bank Stadium and has expressed his wish for as many Dees fans as possible to come and watch the match. ❤️💙

    Would love to be up there as Metricon is a great relaxed venu to watch footy from.  Great memories of watching of watching Harmes and Hunt play great break out games there in 2016.  But alas, I'll be here in the Melbourne cold.

    Do many people get to the Sporting Globe venues for interstate games?  My local is Chirnside Park.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
