The AFL know dees have poor crowds at many night games. 

It would help if they didn't schedule them in midwinter vs Port, GWS, Freo etc whose fans don't travel. 

Schedule the night games vs Carlton, Coll, Rich etc and it is a different story.  Dees fans will probably be outnumbered but there will be a decent crowd and many watching on TV.

 

I prefer day games but am ok with night games but not in midwinter at the G.  If the AFL want midwinter night games they should be in the warmer states or undercover at Marvel.

I read somewhere that there will be lots of Sunday night games, often on the eve of a public holiday in Vic or Qld.  Most others will be in WA which will be an early evening start in WA so broadcast at night in eastern states.

My mfcss has kicked in and we cop a double whammy:  Sunday night and travel to Perth 😢

Not expecting much good in this fixture for the club/players re travel, breaks, revenue.

At what point today is it all being released?

Rumour of 1pm. Interesting that they haven’t released round 1 first though.


Fixture is a debacle.

Sunday 3:20 galore, home game at Marvel. Off to Perth for West Coast again, back to Geelong, twice at Adelaide Oval.

But, last 7 are in Victoria.

 

Gold Coast and Adelaide away in consecutive weeks.

Means only 12 games at the G, down from 14

We have Pies, Hawks and Blues as away games at the G so I think it’s 13 games at the G.

Edit - 1 mcg home game has been moved to Marvel. Thought we had an agreement to play 10 at the G because of Alice.

Double up teams

Hawks, Pies, STK, GCS, WCE, NTH

That is the easiest we could have had.

Based on 2024

  • 5th - Hawks (7th pre finals)
  • 9th - Pies
  • 12th - Saints
  • 13th - GCS
  • 16th - WCE
  • 17th - North

I don't see any of them being top 4 and only a couple top 8 candidates.

In terms of groupings:

  • 1 from top 6
  • 2 from middle 6
  • 3 from bottom 6

No complaints there. 

Its now up to the team to capitalise on that fixture and romp into the 8 and maybe top 4.

Our CFO has just re written the budget for 2025, you couldn't ask for a worse commercial draw.

Gws, suns, freo as home games mcg games to kick off the season.


Check out Rounds 8 to 17, its a bloody horrible run of travel away, home, travel away.

I know we have the last 7 in Melbourne but we will be well cooked with all the travel

Nope, we have a home game at marvel 

 

From a club progression viewpoint that fixture is damning.

Sponsor contracts have multiple kicker clauses and I bet we hardly kick one.

You were right. After our first year out of the finals, we are North Melbourne. All late games on Sunday (pox) against interstate sides (double pox). Back to Gee-hole and Marvel

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
