I imagine Airfares and Hotel Rooms are about 8x the normal price. Uber Rides around the City will be peak

I think the whole thing stinks

Think of it as SA's revenge for Vic tying up the GF for 20 odd years.

It's a good product but needs to be stretched over two weeks to offer a reasonable chance for fans to attend. There's not many hotel rooms in Adelaide in the scheme of things

    You can't find a room for 100kms when the cricket's on and that's only a crowd of 35.

    Perhaps split it over Perth and SA on one weekend assuming those two States would pay

    Football festivals are fun if they're run well

    How does a 35 yo Dangerfield kick 4, how do they get players like Cameron & Smith & we trade in zero

    Amazing to see Danger running riot at 35 while we have a couple of “so called” stars who are cooked mentally if not physically in their late 20’s!

    Watching the crows forwards It’s frustrating & unbelievable how our club hasn’t been able to develop & trade in any power forwards to maximise our premiership window!

    i said years ago we should have traded that peanut in weideman who cant even get a game in the vfl for fogarty or georgiades from port

    If we had generous billionaire sponsors who would gift properties, vehicles and lucrative sponsorship deals to players and their families it would help.

    As annoying as he is, you have to admire what danger is doing & what he did last night.

    This is the level & skill Oliver & petracca have to consistently get to

    Agree .. let’s not forget the state gvt have giving 140 mill to redevelop their stadium over the last 15yrs whilst we are stuck training on a paddock & driving 50 mins to Casey & a pipe dream horse racing track as a training centre

    I dont think we have stars who can influence a game like 35 year old Danger is capable of

    Would love to CP have a go at being such a star

    So does Bailey Smith cop the same rhetoric for his middle finger salute to the crowd as Harley Reid. Or is it OK because.... Geelong.

    Other than the configuration of the MCG this idea of Melbourne Storm's CEO (Justin Rodski) makes a lot of sense.

    Rodski has been campaigning for the Storm to take advantage of the AFL leaving the state for Gather Round by playing a Storm versus New Zealand Warriors game at the MCG in future, which he said could be a platform for Melbourne to steal a future NRL decider from Sydney.

    Given its record of strong crowds for State of Origin games, Rodski believes a successful Storm game at the MCG when the AFL vacates Victoria for a week and heads to Gather Round would make a strong case for the Victorian government to put in a bumper bid to bring the grand final to Melbourne.

    “I don’t see any reason why the NRL shouldn’t consider the MCG and why the Victorian Government shouldn’t consider the NRL grand final,” Rodski said.

    Pre covid I always had a second team to cushion the blow of MFC failure. Now I can't be bothered.

    For 2025 it's Melbourne Storm and Oscar Piastri for me.

    I suspect I'm not alone

    Following the storm is great. Yes I have sat through lost grand finals, but this team has given me premierships & finals appearances in my lifetime more than the dees have. They are consistent & have a wonderful coach.

    Also while everyones at gather round the storm are playing on Sunday here in Melbourne & it's a sell out.

    Adelaide almost kicked half of our total season goal tally in one night. In a loss.

    I’m running out of threads that are bearable.

    • 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

      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.

      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.
