    2 years in a row the aflw granny has sold out in a snap. 

    Why isn't the game moved to a bigger venue?

    oh that's easy .... $s.

    The AFL floats on booze and gambling $s and every other revenue stream it can find.

    So the opportunity cost to rent out its Docklands Stadium, built with the support of government so as to create another mecca for footy, to a non-footy venture makes more money than $20 ticket to the AFLW GF.

    Numbers not published but one can expect that 8k tickets are pre-allocated if not 2k more.

    None left

    My guess is a crowd of 75% but of course all tickets are sold

    That’s a huge allocation for a ground that holds maximum 12,000. I’ll spew if they only get 75% of capacity because so many people missed out, as did a bunch of us who were planning on attending it to support North’s cheer squad. And because Amy Smith (daughter of Shaun, sister of Joel) is a Kanga. Who knew it’d sell out so quickly?

    The game should be at Marvel where they could get 30K and everyone can get a ticket and sit comfortably with a spare seat or two between groups of people.

    Instead people are going to get stuck in like sardines in the crappy legends stand with thousands of people missing out on tickets.

    The AFL's decision making makes my head hurt at times.

    Don’t disagree with you. Not sure what the answer is when you are competing with cricket season or the lead in to. Our bigger stadiums have cricket pitches and what curator is going to allow a game of football on it while they are trying to prepare pitches. Plus there is a safety issue for the players as well as those pitches are rock hard.

    The football season is well and truly over so cricket is now the priority.

    Im assuming Marvel is used for  those stupid T20 games or even state onedayers.  

    Its also used for music gigs isnt it?.

    If AFLW GF tickets are a measly  20 dollars its no wonder the AFL is reluctant to host the girls GF at a major (expensive) venue.

    If fans paid 200 dollars then theyd be at Marvel this weekend. but it wouldnt be anywhere near a sellout. Catch 22.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
