    Great Stuff GTG :) 

    - red circle is likely the only gate open for ground access
    - yellow circles are the two dedicated parking bays
    - green circle is likely the “primary” part of the ground for spectators/fans
    i.e. it does not sound like the big grandstand section of the facility is open for fans to mingle
    - not sure how accessible players will be for photos and signatures but we hold hope they will be more than willing to as I suspect there will be a good turn out for a Casey Fields training session!

    BYO food, drink etc. No shops close by.

    Cheers

    Hoping to pop in for a few mins.

    Anyone know if Friday is more of a match sim/practice session or a craft session.

    And more importantly will the Demon Army be putting on a sausage sizzle to keep the kids (and parents!) happy?

    Of course Drysdale Demon has to face palm a comment that's clearly a sarcastic response.. just another day where anything and everything offends this fella.

    Can't wait for the reports @Bleasey as that @Gawndy the Great , us folks certainly appreciate the time and effort, especially making the trek out to Casey.

    Jefferson, Sparrow, Salem and AMW in rehab. 

    Left Melbourne in a breeze and arrived at a cold and wind ravaged Casey.

    Got here late. Watching players warm up including umpires. Likely a match sim. Coaches going nuts with whistles. A few errant kicks otherwise pretty clean.

    Sparrow doing warm up drills. Correction, someone wearing Tommy’s number, doesn’t look like Tom.

    If anyone can find out what's up with Jefferson, that would be great. Bit concerning he's been in rehab for a number of weeks now.

    Choco had a crack at the umps in some tackling drills telling them to pay frees as they see fit. “ we are paying you guys to pay em” he yells.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
