Regretably, I cant turn up.

Iam absolutely guttered about it, but Ive insisted that least it will be on the big screen for me.

However, I am going to go to the ground b4 hand and swipe my membership card, so the MFC can get my recipt. Its the least I can do.

Remember people. It's a 7.05 start. If you're late, the match could be over.

Straight from work, no problem

Good to see.

Can't make it myself either, stupid moving house mumble mumble.

If somebody wants to swipe my membership card to give gate receipts, i'm in as well.

Move Saturday!

We need 50,000 plus!

i'll be there, but i'll be negated by the geelong supporter i'm dragging along

Tell him to shut up, and give it to him if we are leading at quarter, half, 3/4 and full time.

I'll be bringing my two mates along to bump the attendance up! Although one of them is a Gees fan the other is almost a Dees fan!

I missed Saturday's game (first Victorian match I've missed in about 6 years I think) because I was really sick and I have a very important presentation coming up so didn't want to risk getting worse.

However, nothing will keep me away from this match. In fact, if the Essendon match was our home game I would have dragged myself out of bed, because I know how desperate we are for numbers.

Already notified work I'm leaving an hour early this Friday :)

Today we can only feel gross dissapointment and indication of how the MFC and AFL has no idea how to enable the MFC to restore pride and credibility in the AFL community with the total lack of any promotion of tonight's game against the Cats!

This should have been marked down as the Game to be the anniversary of both the MFC's 15O year and the anniversary of the first game of Aussie rule. Yesterday was the day everyone was to have a kick to celebrate the birth of the game. So the game in 7 hours time is the game to mark. Yet we have got ZIP!

Compare this with the hype and promotion of Richmond's 100 anniversary game a few weeks ago.

AFL could not have done anything more to ensure this is a non event - other than move the game back to a 10.00 pm start so was catually being played during the Olympic opening ceremony!

Totally missed opportunity to promote the great game and mark any actual milestone as well as a foundation club!

Will be even more peeved if they bag the MFC for a small crowd as Mark Thompson has already predicted!!

Hopefully however our players do have some sense of pride and occasion and enjoy the challenge against the premiers. Good luck boys!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
