Lightning interrupts again

I’m starting to wish this new grandstand structure was made of wood.

Not great preparation is it

Not unless we were playing the first game up in Brisbane again like a couple of years ago.

 

Well if that's it then I'm pretty happy with what I saw with the exception of Kentfield's injury. Good fast movement, Gawn looked good, Kozzy is awesome and JVR has his swagger back.

Plenty to work on, especially defensively but I'm overall feeling extremely positive about things which is a foreign feeling, especially after last year.

REMAINDER OF GAME ABANDONED


Game has been called off.

Unfortunately this isnt ideal preparation for round 1.

We are going to struggle to run out the game in rnd 1

Seen Jeffo walking around no limp hopefully gets back sooner. Hopefully Luker ok and checkers is ready for round 1

 

Early days but I don't think we're missing the two heavy anchors weighing us down last year.

Good choice of ground AFL… lighting not good enough to complete game!

Smells more like pork barrelling than KFC?

After the next two days supposed to be worse? Should be lovely up here.


Weird day.

good signs though. We Probably do need to tighten up a bit defensively to beat better teams, but a lot more fun to watch

12:6

Satisfies my 2:1 accuracy rate.

I'm happy... time for it to thunder down.

My lawn needs it

… and with that, the Demons finish their summer campaign with a win and they rocket up to the top of the preseason ladder (we’ll update it later).

Bad luck to Tom Matthews and Xavier Taylor who didn’t get a sniff but I’m sure that they will get a run at Casey tomorrow.

The problem is that the club has to work out a way to deal with the limited preparation given that there are still 16 days remaining before the first game vs St Kilda who will have a run under its belt next week.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
