Been out of contact a few weeks so can someone please tell me what's the latest with the Bubbledome?

Are we in or out?

(I hope in, or likely to be in, because it's time we had a plan and stuck to it.)

What's Jim's latest?

    This was a function to ask people to remember the MFC in their wills. Well targeted because most of the people there would have been 65+. Chris spoke, if you haven't been to a function when he speaks about the club and the future try to get to one, he is passionate and we are on the right path. He also mentioned that MFC will have new Conditioning and medical staff next season and that over the past 2 years injuries have cost the club approx 500K.

    Jimmy is great, he speaks well and the afternoon tea was very good. I get the opinion that the bubbledome is dead for the MFC, Jimmy made it clear that the MCG was our home and he wanted to see at sign above the gates MCG HOME of THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB.

    The Red and Blue circle can be joined by all, if you are interested leave some of your estate to the MFC in your Will and let the club know about it.

    I read the e-mail and thought this was the case but I would love the red and blue circle to be a networking social club, hopefully the have another name for this. It was great to listen to Jimmy and Chris for the first time.

    Thanks for the link, but

    Hmmmmm..."the bubbledome dead for the MFC"...

    The problem I have with that is an indefinite period without a real home again. If the Southern Stand redevelopment is our target how much longer do we wait?

    And the other issue is that the MCC will have to be won over, and I don't trust em.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
