A question about Casey Fields in Cranbourne

Bloody excited about next Saturday. The boys have recieved a fair kick up the arse withy the 7am Hills session and I daresay next Saturday at Casey Fields we will see a side desperate to atone for their performances thus far.

I am attending the game with a few mates and no doubt will enjoy a few beverages as we are intending to catch the train to Cranbourne. My question is that Casey Fields looks as though it is a fair hike from Cranbourne Station. Do you think it is worth walking from the station to the ground or cabbing or if there is a connecting bus to Caesy Fields?

On a map it looks about just shy of a 3km walk from the station to the ground.

there is a bus which goes about 800m-1km away from the ground, but if there are a few of you youre best pitching in for a cab, would only be about about 6-7 buck fare from the station

Thanx goodoil, I thought as much. Cab will probably be the go as it does look like a fair hike.

Bit late now for the NAB Challenge match I know, but maybe if you're using public transport and visiting during summer training (or coming out to a match at the future boutique stadium in 10 years time when Melbourne plays Western Sydney):

the bus meets every train and travels to within 800 metres of Casey Fields. It is a "claytons train", and was provided in lieu of a promise at the 1999 elections to extend the Cranbourne rail line and build a new station at Cranbourne East. It'll do for now. But it provides a good, reliable service for 20 hours a day.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
