Umm...I'm 52. Nothing stops me getting involved :)

 

They still sit there at times they just don't go down to the fence to get the flags and baners as WCW asked.

Same! They used to always hand out flags, we loved it!

 

We still hand out flags! Before the match starts little kids and big kids and even the biggest kids (adults) can come down and ask anyone in the first three rows of M3 and they’ll be given a flag or a banner or even a giant head. Gotta get in early for a giant head though, they’re quite popular. And don’t even THINK of getting giant Riv or giant Ed because unless you’re prepared to prise them outta the cold dead hands of two of our DA gals, you ain’t getting either. Believe me, I’ve tried. 😁

Hey all, probably a long shot but hoping to find 1 or 2 spare tickets for this Monday's game. Have never had the chance to go to a QBD/KBD game before so it would be awesome if anyone could help me out!

I think @Lucifers Hero might still have one or two?


Fellow D'landers.

I am currently overseas and was planning to watch the game via watchAFL.com.au.

However it is a daylight robbery, 24 dollars for one week! (it's basically what I am paying for my monthly Kayo sub).

Isn't there anyway to pay "on demand" (i.e. just for the one game)?

TIA.

What if you gave them 50 bucks?

Same but when I take the kids they want the hot chips etc no matter how many snacks/sandwiches I pack 🤣

I catch the train in that goes past the Springvale market. I get of at Springy and pick up a Vietnamese Pork Belly roll and get back on the train.

At the G I then buy a crappy meat pie (tradition or bad habit) and a beer or two (for the price you pay you sometimes think you are buying shares in the company!)

At half time I eat the roll I bought. I love it!

Absolutely! We have flags of every size, right down to little ones that are perfect for a 3yo to wave. Your boys won’t ever wanna sit anywhere else. 🤗

Incidentally, I did something I’ve always wanted to do on Friday night. When everyone had left the ground post match and it was only DA packing up, I had a go at waving our biggest baddest flag, much to the amusement of our guys who btw make it look easier than it is. I didn’t take anyone’s eye out so I’m chalking that up as a win. 😁

Knowing you WCW, I would of thought the flag was waving you 😁

Can you just download a vpn and connect to an Australian server and then watch via Kayo or the 7+ app?

Unfortunately youll have to suck it up, unless you want to add an overseas membership with the club and then you get "free" access. Ive tried with VPNs before but the geo blocking is pretty good. If you are in the UK its televised.

I am in North America, yeah I just feel I am giving my money twice to Kayo, just for one game! Absolutely pathetic to be honest.

I am always concerned the VPNs won't work. 

Anyways I guess I will have to ponder the next couple of days if I am willing to give the 24 bucks to Kayo/7 Network/AFL

watchAFL should be free for Kayo subscribers - I had the same limitation when in Japan at the start of the season.

Yeah no idea, it's a real doozy though. Might be best to go with WatchAFL or get on a trial for one of the better VPNs.

Nope... welcome to the worst streaming system in Sports.

PS Have someone check the price for you back in Australia. The site uses a geolocator and prices by reference to areas. US price is high in $US (probably haven't updated the exchange rates for years..just like the platform.)

I want my footy, damnit!!!! 

Kat, just last week, you know Skippy, our biggest 40+ year old kid in the DA, he got a footy from Maysie, so don’t give up hope!

PS never seen such a big manly man morph into a 16yo girl so quickly. 😝

You could offer them $500, still ain’t happening. Our diehards are nothing if not committed. It could be said some of us need to be committed but that’s a whole different Dr Phil show.

Yeah, I found that so annoying when I was in Europe earlier in the year. I paid the money in the end (and watched us get rolled by Essendon from sunny Belfast). 

They are literally gauging fans who are away for a couple of weeks.

Join the queue. (Please form an orderly line.) Have you seen what happens when Riv comes anywhere near us during warmup? Remember when One Direction came to Melbourne? It’s that x 1000. 🤣

Gee $500 could get you many heads!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
