    We'd get 50,000-55,000 along, not sure it'd be big enough for them.

    Win the flag and maybe we'd get 60,000...

    They will want it against Collingwood, like they requested for this year. Suspect it will be Essendon/Richmond so they are only outnumbered 3:1 at the G rather than 4:1 against the Pies

    I just count my lucky stars that the MCG is our home ground. 

    I was fortunate enough to go to a Western Bulldogs breakfast event on Wed at Marvel and even getting into that place at 7am with minimal traffic is an impossible task.

    Did anyone else read the thread title and thought it was in reference to the GWS game in Alice being transferred to the MCG like it was mooted weeks ago?

    Yes me and I got hopeful, Alice Springs the only game i'm missing this year coz of the costs involved in getting there.

    I doubt any St Kilda game at the G would be against us. Certainly not if they want to get 70k turning up. They should concentrate more in trying to fill Marvel for their current home games before trying to shoehorn their way into our ground.

    More expensive than Perth?  (WCE in round 4) 

    Fair effort to attend 23 games.

    St Kilda's home ground is Docklands and that's where they should play. Same as Essendon and Carlton (both who are looking to play extra home games at the G in coming years).

    When these clubs play extra home games at the G someone has to play home games at Docklands to make up the shortfall - it's why we still play a game in the NT because this game would be at Docklands if it were in Vic.

    We've done bloody well to get two of these feature games given our size. Hawthorn and Geelong only have one. North have half a one on Good Friday. Dogs and saints don't have any. Pies, dees and blues have 2. Richmond and bombers have 3.

    It was there, DL!

    Shun article on Saints wanting a 'blockbuster' home game at 'G (from) next year. Had a 'looking for suitors' feel to it.

    Why, when we regularly get 80,000+ to these games?

    We deserve those games as much as anyone. A Demons versus Saints blockbuster could be a thing if Saint Kilda continue to play good football.

    The Saints warrant a "blockbuster" fixture but who is their natural opponent?

    Maybe Collingwood - GFs against.

    Rivalry round, probably the best I can come up with is:

    Saints v Pies

    North v Essendon 

    Demons v Dogs

    Blues v Tigers*

    Cats v Hawks*

    *Two of them are blockbuster fixtures already.

    I'd be keen to see other combos ...

    Why doesn't the afl just go full commie and pool all gate receipts for all games? It would suit the current style of leadership at AFL house. Seems fair

    Actually not a bad idea (and yes I despise the concept of communism).  

    Why should one club take all the profit just because of the way that the AFL decide to arrange the FIXture?  For example when we play Collingwood, Essendon, Richmond at OUR ground, the MCG and it is arbitrarily designated as our away game we get nothing? And vice versa?  Or teams like Geelong in their taxpayer funded ground get the lot when our fans can’t even get in?  The spectacle is provided by both teams, why not the takings?

    I'm pretty sure this is how things worked in the early days of the comp. Yes the pool was far smaller but the concept was the same. You'd have the likes of Collingwood, West Coast and Adelaide crying could about that now though.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
