    MCG/AFL should just tell them to get stuffed. It would be good to have it on the screens pre game but trying to dictate to them is ridiculous

    MCG website has top of the Ponsford (Q29-Q36) open for GA Kev.

    That's the entire area isn't it DZ ie all level 4 is GA.

    If so that's brilliant - for me. That's where I want to sit. And I have a GA ticket.

    But it means they will be lucky to get 55k to the game.

    I believe that is the whole top of Ponsford bin.

    I ran into an old friend who now works for the MCG. She was the one that told me our game was expecting 70,000 and tonight’s game was expecting 81,500.

    Ta.

    Won't be 70 i dont think then.

    I can't remember what game it was, a big one last year - the second tigers game maybe.

    GA started half way up the top section of the Ponsford, with the rest reserved seats.

    And that crowd was 70k

    Yes. Dont talk to to corrupt European Sports Goons ie FIFA and IOC.

    AFL is No 1  in Melbourne World cup soccer is nothing.  Just dont talk to those sloths.

    Easy. No big deal.  Put some highlights of footy games on the big screen or put nothing which is better.

    Dont talk to corrupt European sports knobs.

    They (MFC v Blue) might have to delay, if extra time and penalties happen.

    Just heard the commentators (Gee v Cooly) talk about the game tomorrow.

    They will extend the starting time by 5 minutes. So a 7.35 pm start for us.

    They will screen FIFA, on all screens (including the big ones), until our match starts. When we start, the small screens will show FIFA (if necessary) and the big ones will be with our game.

    I thought it had already been extended from 7.25 to 7.30.  Have they now added another five minutes?

    It's bizarre that they've pushed the game time for AFL for another sport.

    I was at the Collingwood game tonight.  Certainly helps the Ferals ( although in my opinion they had the game under control from 2nd quarter onwards)

    For those of us that can , turn up tomorrow

    I don't mind either, I just think it's bizarre. Particularly, with how guarded the AFL are in terms of other codes. It's a huge advertisement for football (⚽️).

    Agreed. But on the other hand they’ll get more bums on seats which equals money. 


    I think the AFL realises that the antagonistic way they’ve treated other codes has been an inefficient use of time and effort. People can enjoy more than one code, but when they make these hard line stances it makes people choose sides and even turns non-hard core fans away. 
     

    The image of Barassi punching a a deflated soccer ball on the front page of the Herald Sun during the World Cup bud period didn’t win them any new fans. 

    This generates good publicity, keeps fans happy, and brings in extra paying customers. It’s a sound business decision.

    Yeah look to hell with it. Show it on the small TV's and plenty of people own a smartphone if they want to watch it during the footy. Big screen is for the footy action and I say this as a big Soccer fan. The times are cutting it fine to begin with, get stuffed FIFA.

    Edit: Maybe half-half screen?

    You could be right. I don't know the original starting time.

    I'll take it as a 7.30 pm start.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
