Pretty funny... though about par for the course for Bigfooty.

I remember when they'd just won the flag, a whole bunch of WC fans would come on and make polls for "who has the best midfield" "Who has the best young team" etc... just forcing everyone to answer WC because they'd just won the flag.

A year later and the club has been all but completely hollowed out, rotting from the inside.

I wonder where that other huge bigfooty MFC fan went? What was his name? He was up there with Zeke, and some of the others, but I think he got a lifetime ban. He was VERY much like Y_M, so much so I thought they were the same person.

Thanks M2W. It will be interesting to see if poor old CoffeeChill puts his head above the trench another time. Mind you, plenty of other Melbourne posters were applying Rule 303 to the [censored], not least Whelan=Legend.

Say what you like about him, when Yze Magic is in form there is none better in the business. The Flogs - and particularly the Carlton Flogs - just loathe him: this is a measure of his success. I only wish he had been around when we started the Carlton Information Kiosk - thankfully some other MFC and non-MFC posters were at hand to assist.

What I had to say:

This is all coming from a West Coast supporter.

lol

West Coast doesn't have a few thing that Melbourne has, and they will never, EVER have them.

That's class and history.

Firstly, like every other interstate club, the AFL looks at you as a pay packet and nothing more. You're not considered a football club. Do you know how you will be remembered in 20 years time? As the club that the worst drug problem in the history of Australian sport and whose Brownlow Medal and Premiership star was a cocaine addict. Forget the 3 flags. Everyone knows the Eagles as "that" club. When people think of Melbourne (people who are in the know, know what they're talking about and do some research before they make stupid claims) they think of one of the best sporting teams in Australian history from the early 50s to mid-60s. They also think of a few blokes called Ron Barrassi and Norm Smith, trail-blazers of our game that will never be forgotten. Who does W.C. have worth noting in 20 years? You think Judd left JUST to come home? He left because your club is a disgrace to the game and a club that allowed a drug epidemic to continue from 10+ years.

Secondly, like every other interstate club, you were helped by a blind, ignorant and money-hungry organisation in the AFL to build one of the best lists of the past 20 years. You can thank your flag of 92 to plenty of nice draft picks, salary concessions and state-of-the art facilities. You were spoon-fed from the moment you entered the competition until you were strong enough to stand on your own feet. What do clubs like Melbourne have to do, after creating this game, providing some of the most memorable, respected and well-known sporting stars of the past 100 years of Australian sport? They have to beg the AFL to get assistence to stay afloat. Then after they do that, THEN they can borrow money from the state government to get facilities that come within 10 meters of the quality of your facilities that were given to you in a box with a bow and tie.

Thirdly, the character of player is truly on show when they willingly play for a poor yet foundation club that has more class and stability than any of the interstate clubs and probably half of the Melbourne clubs. We will draft the Victorian boy because he will appreciate this game and the history it has, unlike most of you interstate supporters who think your rich, spoon-fed love-child clubs make the AFL what it is.

Just remember, people will ALWAYS remember the Melbourne Football Club. In 10 years, people will know us as the ORIGINAL club. You'll have nothing to show except a drug epidemic. I will never have respect for interstate clubs until one comes into the league and works on their own accord. It might impossible, but it might give their supporters a little more knowledge and respect for what it takes to be a REAL aussie rules football club.

I suggest you go back into the hole you came out of. I'm guessing there are a lot of them in the city you call Perth....oh, I'm sorry. I meant that town in the desert covered in sand and bush. Most isolated city in the world. Thank god.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
