I thought both club members tickets go on sale at the same time?

I don’t think so. They’ll have separate times to avoid the site crashing. We get the same allocation of seats so don’t worry.

    Buddy’s celebration is an omen. The last major celebration was last year when he kicked 1000 goals……..against the team that became the premiers.

    Carlton v Swans/Giants/Dogs over Collingwood v Melbourne on the Friday Night might be one of the stupidest decisions I’ve seen the AFL has made.

    Collingwood are the biggest team in the comp, we’re coming off a premiership 2 seasons ago & both teams play at the MCG.

    Thursday Night is a 7:20 game, Friday Night a 7:50 game. You lose a couple of thousand in attendance because of that.

     

    Well done AFL lol

    That assumes they use common sense. I don't recall the AFL or the ticketing companies showing any of that in the past. I'm almost certain they release the members tickets for all four games at the same time for absolutely no reason hut to stress us all out

    I have to miss if it's Thursday. Seven have stated it will be on the Thursday, just have to wait for the AFL to confirm what seven have asked for.

    The AFL can get well & truly stuffed if it’s a Thursday night, so much for country members coming down

    Surely the biggest crowd pulling final has to Friday or Saturday night

    My 8yo will want to go, no way will he be right for school the next day by the time we get home and he unwinds and goes to bed around 1130pm (if we're lucky).

    Slap in the face to the top 4 teams and their supporters having it on Thursday instead of Friday night.

    It's created all kinds of headaches that's for sure. I'll be struggling to get out of work early on the Thurs whereas Fri no problem at all. 

    As mentioned in post game I believe this game will be the biggest shaper of the finals series and whoever wins it has just taken the Queen in the Premiership Chess game. Real shame it it's Thurs..

    I'd rather play on the Thursday and those sides play on the Friday. If we lose, we get an extra day preparation. How would you feel if it was the reverse and we had one less day's preparation?

    Which is exactly what should happen. They scheduled 5 potential finals teams on a Sunday for round 24 to maximize viewership. That’s on them. 

    Play 3 games on Saturday or one on Sunday. I don’t care. You cannot possibly disadvantage a side with 11 days turnaround and have a 12 day concussion protocols. 

    I am sure the AFL in their infinite wisdom will find a way.  
    Why not, as there are only max 3 Vic based teams with home finals play Friday night, Saturday arvo and night, and a EF on a Sunday?.

    Fox Footy already pushing the agenda to have us play on the Thursday. It seems that the AFL does the broadcaster's bidding.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
