How many people here were actually at the game?

Very opinionated stuff here. Since there weren't many of us there. Would be interesting to see how many post here. You do see lots of things live you don't get on the tv.

 

I actually thought there was a decent number of Dees supporters at the game yesterday.

It sh*ts me though when you have moron Doggies fans call up the radio and blame the bad crowd on our fans. You are 2nd on the ladder, and it's your home game, you should be able to get 30,00 of your own supporters there yourselves.

I know. Saints supporters didn't show up either. Too bad the doggies can't beat us in the membership and they are second on the ladder!!!

 

Have to say I thought it was a shocking turnout from D`s fans. As I walked from the train station til I walked in the gates I doubt I saw more than 20 D`s fans. I heard the call on MMM and I had to agree that it was our fans that didnt show up! Sat next to an top bloke, older Demon`s fan and he agreed we are the most fickle fans in the comp.

Had to listen to that moron BT go on about how Melbourne fans don't turn up before the Dogs game.

Saying this despite the fact that our average attendance for home games this year is better than the following teams:

Port Adelaide,

Brisbane,

North Melbourne,

Geelong,

and the team that we were about to play whilst he said it,

the Western Bulldogs.

Joke.

Obviously it's still not where we would all like it to be, but with the smallest supporter base in the game, we go alright IMO


i had to work. but i get there most weeks.

i do hate TD though, and given that i work at 5pm on the east side of town, if the game was at the g i wouldve gone and left 10 mins early...

I was there, surrounded by Dogs fans.

Telstra Dome is a horrid place, colder than a morgue and with about as much atmosphere too.

 

I was there, it's always depressing to look at the Melbourne area for TD games.

I was there - actually bought my reserved tickets on the pre-release day sale for AFL members before the season started. I bought 5 tickets thinking all my kids would want to go - turns out only 1 wanted to come!

Rather than let them all go to waste, my son invited 2 of his mates along - only condition was they HAD to barrack for Melbourne no matter how bad the score got.

One of these boys comes from a die-hard Collingwood family and he has been to so many games with us that he is starting to turn! Imagine what I could do to him if we had a good year!


I couldn't get anyone to cover for me at work. I managed to get some reception and had the game on radio whenever I was out the back.

We were going to have it on TV in the store, but some damn construction workers cut our antenna.

BT is a moron, i can't believe he was voted #1 in the Hun's survey, i put him last with a bullet.

I was there, level three aisle 5, in front of the feral with brown hair, blonde mullet, missing his 4 front teeth, screaming out about playing with "big willies" looking like an ugly Danny Southern.

Robbo looked depressing when he came out after the boys before the game in the moon boot with two crutches, moving terribly. Poor guy needed assistance to hop up through the gate from the ground!

Good to see Flash getting high 5's from the Doggies fans though.

Was there but that stadium isn't fit to wipe the scrotum of our magnificent MCG. I don't blame Dee's fans for not going, I only went because I'm obsessed with the team this year.

We were vastly outnumbered by WB fans, from what I saw.

Very opinionated stuff here. Since there weren't many of us there. Would be interesting to see how many post here. You do see lots of things live you don't get on the tv.

Guilty, i couldnt go because of year 12. But i totally agree nothing compares to actually going to the game compared to watching it on tv because there is so much more that you can see and you are not confined to the dodgy camera work of channel 10.

Yep. I had to wait behind some poor Melbourne supporter for like 10 minutes pre-match as the ticket seller fumbled around with the computer. I have a strong dislike for the Dome, which I guess explains why there were so few Melbourne supporters there.

Parked underneath and caught the lift up to level 3. Got in the lift and thought i saw Wee Man from Jackass!!! Couldnt see too many other dees on the 50 at the Plugger end. Not too many flags about either. Our numbers were thin but we still outranked them hands down in the intelligence stakes. Had my hands on my phone and wallet the whole game. Spewing i can only make it to two more games this year. Damn those free overseas working trips!!!!!

Can i just say ch 7 camera men are shocking!!!!

They had for about 40secs a high shot from the pocket looking at the play in the middle of the ground

Would be interesting to see how many post here.

I was there. I train it 100km to every game and so far I've only missed the second match against Hawthorn in May when I had a family commitment.

One of these boys comes from a die-hard Collingwood family and he has been to so many games with us that he is starting to turn! Imagine what I could do to him if we had a good year!

I'm glad you're trying to convert those boys, because I sure as hell haven't had any success! :D

At least I'm always telling them Collingwood suck (brain washing comes free of charge).


I had a game off, is that OK with you, after watching nearly all dees games in Melbourne plus most Sandy games & 2 weekends of TAC Carnival games, I think I deserved a break.

I went, had to get out of work to go.

Yep, made it to the game. Took my old man to see TD, for the first time. He was totally blown away. He still remembers standing on the outer at the Western oval. So do I. Especially back in 87. He still can't work out how I turned into a Dees supporter. Tried taking the [censored] out of me saying all the Dees supporters were at the snow which explained the poor crowd. I then asked if all the Bulldogs people couldn't make bail. Did anyone see Juice Newton and DB pointing thier fingers at each other at 3/4 time. What was that about? Thought Juice had a bit of a go. Chased a fair bit. Good enough for another game at least.

 

I was there on level 3 right above the Melbourne cheer squad. I reckon we should all congregate together in one spot when playing at this venue to enhance the noise factor.

I'm doing my best! The only down side is that they also take Jack to the pies games - I have to remind him that Dale Thomas is a tool on a daily basis and that all Collingwood players are bad bad bad people!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
