Question about Saturday Night

Gorgoroth
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

I still would have huffed. Aaron of all people should have been there on time..

We must have been drunk & didn't have enough credit on his phone to let Neale know he couldn't play..

Good post though! :lol:

It was in the days when our rooms were in the Southern Stand. We are AFL members and the players used to have a special section reserved for them and their better halves, friends, rels, etc; Aaron was obviously down in the rooms before the match and came up to sit with some mates who were sitting in the same row as us. I think it would have been his first season. I also remember him all decked out in the club suit, shirt and tie, with nice black polished shoes.........and white anklet sport socks - a great look! He was really nice to my kids and the other kids sitting around him and everytime we go to a footy clinic he is great with the kids - King of the Kids actually.

    Considering whether to go or not. Finish work at 7pm and then dash down the Eastern? What is parking like? (I normally take the train)

    Ah memories - that's all we've got at the moment. ;)

    I kinda figured you were having a laugh but I thought I should explain it a bit better. My kids miss having the players sit in "our" area.

    I know this it doesn't matter a great deal but this thread has got me thinking, hjow can there be different times on different sites? I know it is only 5 minutes btu surely all sites and publications would have the same time, either 7:10 or 7:15.... ?

    You are right St Jon......for a professional organisation there is oh so much wrong with the AFL. Our website and the AFL website should surely have the same info.

    It's definately 7:15pm. Like every other Saturday Night game in Melbourne this year.

    For some reason they've changed the starting time this year (from 7:10), without communicating it in full to the public.

    I heard a rumour the game is going to start at 19:12:30 just so we can all be half right! Actually I started the rumour.

    Does it matter????? Just get there - we need bums on seats and if we have to wait an extra 5 minutes, well, care factor nil. JUST TURN UP!!!!

    I now don't know what time to get there, my brain will explode!

    Yeah - a tough decision - I mean you can do so much in 5 minutes can't you????

    If you see someone outside at 7:10pm walking around in circles looking indecisive. That will be me.

    Nah - i hate them - should have to sit somewhere else far far far away from us true lovers of football....even worse when they are from another team.

    I hate the pissheads who decide to go get their beer as soon as the siren goes for the start of the game/quarter.

    Gees, could you go get your drink any later?

    Then they walk past with "excuse me sweetheart", spill their light beer on my head/jeans/bag, all while I'm trying to watch Juice and Brock and so forth! :rolleyes: <_<

    P.S.- if I can make it there by 7:10 and I don't finish my work meeting till 6:30ish, you all should have no excuse!

    You guys are crazy! or bored! or barrack for a team that has no footy worth talking about. One whole day later and the thread on the starting time of the game is still going!

    Is this match on TV? If so, what channel and what time does it start?

    Pretty sure it will be ch10 and delayed... so say 8:30

  • Quote

    Network 10 at 7.30 pm.....assuming you are in Melbourne.......

    Yep, because if you are anywhere else (well in Sydney anyway) you have the fantastic choice of Swans v Saints on both broadcasters <_< .......

    Not to mention having the rare third option of actually being able to go to the game (which I am by the way)!!!

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

        • Haha
