We have 6 in the first 9 weeks. I count Saturday night as Prime time. And the Optus game is prime time in Melb. given time delay across the nullabor

This will be a Cue in the rack game by the Blues.

The upside of these games (in bold above) is that we can make them 8 point games and put some serious daylight between them and us.

I live 500m from the GMHBA ground and never attend. Elitist club the Cats and any semblance of a reserved seat is $70 upwards. Many locals can't afford this. The crowd beahviour is appalling also. They NEVER fill the stadium because of this. Despite all the new Grandstands. One of which faces straight into the afternoon sun. The upside this year though is instead of Us being scared of who we play twice, you can bet all other team fans will be looking at how many times they play the Dees instead.

Hassa. Garry Lyon noted when anouncing them that they shared 5 Flags between them.

I'm sure i saw him, wandering off into the change rooms. It was from a distance though.

Thanks for that. I wasn't aware how jackson fared last pre-season coming from break. Pickett was the story for sure. But given both their ages it augurs well for Jason Taylor's judgement and the due as individual characters. And not a peep out of the media because it isn't a story.

Pert said this morning on SEN that they were OK with Jackson staying in Perth for a family Christmas given there is uncertainty on WA borders and if he came back now he may not get back there again for a while. Fair enough. He also said Jacko has a program from the club and is training hard over there. Kozzie, having lost a close relative earlier this year is probably similar. He proved his reliability anyway by training hard in Adelaide pre-season early in the year with his time off with full club support. Club culture again I reckon.

Yes you did. May have been a joke, hard to say, but Lyon's sentiment about Jack was spot on. His commentary on Oliver was the best though.

A key contribution in making the day so special .Well done the Gary. I loved his intro to Christain Salem saying this player".. is likely the best ever No.3 in a Dees jumper..."

The icing on the cake (not!) will be if its an outrageous late start on a Wednesday evening, being 7.50. Must be at least 7.25 or earlier. Great marketing for sponsors being the opening match for 2022 and undivided attention of TV audience, but borderliner supporters who might have been captured at the game and sign up probably will pass on the night.

You could be onto something with Hassa Mann Supreme Demon. 3× VFL premiership: 1959, 1960, 1964 3× Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Medallist 1962, 1963, 1967 2× Melbourne leading goalkicker: 1967, 1968 Harold Ball Memorial Trophy: 1959 Melbourne captain: 1965–68 Melbourne Team of the Century–Half-forward Melbourne Hall of Fame Overall All-Australian: 1966 Australian Football Hall of Fame Succeeded RDB as Skipper. But Nathan would do me also.

I was always hopeful the club would nominate Ron to unfurl the flag. So just get well and save up Ron for that unbelievable monent in the Club's history. Cannot think of anyone else even close to RDB for this Sunday, so Pert and Roffey need to weave their magic on this (they haven't let us down yet). SWooper maybe - premiership players and GF Dees coach that gave us back our self-belief and got Robbie Flower to the finals stage???

Good comment on this I reckon. The Dee's culture, leadership and selflessness and standard-setting (read Trac running laps and training the week after the GF back in Melb) spells disaster for any new comer not ready and willing to buy-in and conform immediately. I trust Jason taylor to have done the intelligence on Dunstan.

He had ONE job to do well. Canberra would suit him.

The ticket email has the link at the end of the email for each individual ticket which can be donloaded and printed and/or saved as an email on a phone.

Had the same problem with time out due to entering 6 ticket and mobile details, but did get in 2nd time and tickets email came almost immediately.

I agree with you on bt. But sticking up for him I think it was 17 minutes chronologically and 10 minutes of actual game time in play. But sidekick JB's call of bang bang bang now surpasses "Barry you star" by Quarters and "I see it but i don't believe it" by huddo. Now 2nd only to the immortal "Jezza you beauty " by you know who.

Great post on the Langdon v Smith issue. How many times did we say during a game this year "who's playing on Langers???". Apparently nobody often.

Big call and looking forward to watching development . Thanks. Brayshaw Langdon....Howes?

It seems based on the Ticketek map the entire northern and western stands. 50 K capacity. It will have a home game atmosphere I'm tipping. With the outcome already known. And everyone will be in their seats to watch the magical 17 minutes (to quote BT)

Same here. The Dogs achilles heel going forward too. Doggies friends said Easton Wood was done at the end of 2018. Not many team, Dogs especially , can boast a premiership-standard defence when the game is won traditionally. Daniels ins't a defender, and can be taken advantage of. ...etc. May, Lever, Salem, Petty, Bowey, Hunt, Hibberd, Rivers. No wonder teams average 65 points against the Dees in 2021..

It seems the entire northern stand and western are included, so stage facing north. And many will be in the shade . Tickets being sold for Level 4, Q52 around to Q34 . All Level 1 sold out already. This will be bigger than ben hur IMO.

A huge idea 13th. Lets get it done

Nothing on the club or the MCC site yet. But is listed on Ticketek Site ready to go and for both Public and MCC Reserve it says bookings open at 2.00pm Wednesday 24th.
