Can't wait - I'm going to be in Melbourne and finally catch one of our girls' games!!

Clarification: I am a fully paid AFLW member but am interstate

No game on Friday night. Probably because RDB’s memorial service is on Friday.

Surely on a Sunday afternoon at Ikon for $10 a ticket (kids go free) we’ll pull a big crowd.

It'll be so good to see you and the rest of the DA again!  ❤💙

I'm going to try and rope my whole family in, so that should add 5 to the crowd size!

That's a bit rude WCW !

You bastardised my post! I said “I smell a BBQ 😂”  Had I said, “I smell a BBO” I would’ve chosen a different emoji, this one… 💩

AFL really have nothing to do with that unless you feel it is a respect issue for the Club.

That could have featured another game if they wanted to.

State Govt and the Barassi family organised the date arrangements for the Memorial service on Friday. 


I am worried about the number of good players we may have missing.

Paxy would be a huge loss. She is such a great player and inspiration.  That said, there is still so much talent in this team. They will want to prove a point after Saturday. 

Bring it on!

You think for even a second they wouldn’t have a final on TV on a Friday night? Of course they would!

It actually is out of respect that there’s no matches scheduled for Friday night.

And I wouldn’t say the AFL has nothing to do with it. Ron was a lifetime AFL member and a champion of the VFL/AFL, the inaugural Hall of Fame inductee. Of course the AFL has something to do with it!

I've got my ticket!

This game is anxiety central. Like others, I feel that North is really on the brink of breaking through right now. We need a big effort. Soft fixture or otherwise, everything resets now and nothing is guaranteed, for us or anyone else. Hopefully we'll have the crowd behind us like we did last game against them. Every bit counts!


Yep, have to say I'll really be pleased if we win on Sunday.  Who plays will be important but I think fate might be against us.

I’m actually super confident about Sunday. At Ikon (our home away from home), clement weather predicted (20 degrees with slight chance of rain) in front of what’s expected to be a good-sized crowd and vs North, who I feel we’ll comfortably beat. Bring it on!!!


3 x tickets for me and 2 of my kiddoes - $10 the lot. Get around it Dees fans!

I wish I could be so optimistic.  You have my admiration. 😁

It would be nice to see some of our M players there to support the girls. I realise they’re still on their break and some of them are away on holidays but even just a couple of them attending would be great. Would mean a lot to the players, I’m sure.

Well we know that at least Ben Brown will be there. 😁

He sure will be. And we’ll likely not even spot him. I’ve noticed at training and warmups etc. when he leaves the field he walks amongst the players and keeps his head down. He knows it’s not about him. Such an incredible person.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
