All aboard the reality bus!

I can't make up my mind and the only cheap seats are on the grassy hill - does anyone know if that is Hillbilly Hill at the Adelaide Oval?

I would love to see us fix up Port as I do with any oppo!

Have they changed much?

I could tell you about a bus trip to Sydney in the late 80s organised by the cheer squad but it would most likely be my last post on DL

Just got a seat for $75 to sit in the nose bleeds behind the goals at the river end.

Free for MFC members or $35 for the same seat Vs Adelaide in Gather Round 5 days later.

Stupid question, but what does a GA ticket cost at the G this year.  My tickets are also behind the goals at the river end for my family and in my opinion ticket prices are way too expensive in Adelaide.

Not worth the price, but convenient, comfortable and near facilities and bar/food/vendor-outlets and dunnies (although the latter have been well-hidden in the past). Lots of afternoon sun this time of the year, looking down the ground to the north-west. No, it's not the Southern Stand (MCG) by any means, but still good for individual occupation. Quieter, too, amid a stadium surrounded by the thousands of biased, overly-sensitive and thus rampantly noisy Port supporters with Crows supporters coming a close second. When we play there, Demon supporters tend to assemble providing a civilized collective of applauding reasonableness, good taste, civility and manners, and appreciative wins (depending on the umpires' moods and intents across the game).

GA is around $27 at the MCG.

$75 is absolutely expensive for a run of the mill home and away game.

Take your family of four with no concessions, parking and snacks and booze and you'd be lucky to be under 400 bucks.

Sheesh

Sheesh 

There are 5 of us, $268, for one game of footy and we are in the cheapest seats you can buy to reserve a seat.  I really think that 15 and 16 year olds should be included in the family ticket.  

But when all is said and done, I will enjoy every minute of being there.

Is the Karma Bus still running? Probably gets you there at half-time.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.
