    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)

    tbh i'm surprised so many of our games are fta broadcast

    i thought we'd be sent to the naughty corner of eras gone by, where every game was sunday at 1.10pm not the fta 3.20pm slot

    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.

    Will our sponsors be willing to reinvest in a team that has limited exposure?

  • Quote

    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’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: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
