    No Thursday or Friday nights for us

  • Quote

    I guess the fixture to be expected given our form.

    Only one night game which i can't make as i've got a gig that night.

    Still boggles my mind a little we play home against the Pies on 9 June and then don't play at home again until 13 July.

    Was the WCE match always at Marvel or has that been added in???

    was always there

    every mcg tenant has to play there cos the afl needs to fulfil the quota (that they imposed, cos it's their ground)

    The Melboune Football club IS NOT a tenant of the MCG

    Sunday 3:20s yum. Deserved, but at least its FTA and not 4:40.

    We don't deserve nice things because we are [censored] on the field and off the field, we haven't been better.

    I'm more than happy to dodge Thursday and Friday nights, and the club can hardly complain about missing out on these given their woeful performances and horrible brand of football.

    Sunday games are not ideal with junior football, but its up to the club to make this work.

    I think this is a good result for the rank and file MFC supporter and member.

    There's a nice variety of timeslots across Saturday and Sunday to suit most members, and we again avoid Sunday 4:40pm in Melbourne for many years running.

    I'm not fussed about attending Thursday or Friday nights. Prefer weekends. The club and its sponsors would think differently though.

    Agree entirely, nothing better than Saturday or Sunday 1pm games and our crowds reflect that.

    Lots of family friendly timeslots to expose your kids to the endless misery of being a Melbourne supporter.

    Sunday 3.20 - Awful

    Marvel home game - Joke. We are not MCG tenants, we are the only MCG home team.

    No Thursday home games - big tick

    No Thursday away games - understandable

    No Friday games - understandable

    I’m going to the Gold coast one but if I wasn’t I’d be spewing missing 4 weeks of footy

    I’ll be at all three of them. The good thing is they’re all early/mid afternoon time-slots which allows same day FIFO meaning no accommodation costs 🥳

    I acknowledge I am a grumpy person but it does my bloody head in that Marvel tenant clubs play home games at the MCG and we have to play a home game at Marvel.

    HQ see us as rotten fish. Fixture reflects this and the umpiring has already started to. Good for Essendon which HQ will like.

    Agreed

    Dees got shafted with the fixture, and these timeslots just put the dagger further into our back. But given our performances so far this year, we don’t deserve any prime time slots.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
