    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.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
