    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.

    • 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.
