At the end of the breakfast show this morning andy maher said join us tomorrow when we speak to, then he names some guests and one of them was jim stynes. If he isn't on don't blame me blame andy. But why is everyone so interested in us suddenly. Anyway tune in. I'm not sure if he will be in the studio or on the phone

    Thanks for the tip. No doubt this story reported in the HUN today will be covered. I heard Andy Maher talk glowingly of Jimmy's pro-active ideas such as this one this morning. This idea of Jimmy's could 'well' have been mooted at the Summit last month. Aside from that, Gee, Maher can really crap on when he wants to. He needs time in a padded cell.

    I'd attribute the interest in MFC to aggressive marketing on the club's behalf.

    I think we're being a lot more proactive, or at least focusing our efforts in the right areas, compared to in the past.

    any publicity at the moment is good publicity.

    But I smell a Membership marketing opportunity after reading todays article. While we have more members then this time last year most are members which have resigned early. Therefore the challenge is to attract more new members before christmas. 20k for xmas would be a good start for 09

    Speaking of membership, I signed up again today and when asked the guy said they were just shy of 14,000 which is fantastic!!!!

    Come on people, another 1,000 before Christmas... we can do it!

    I guess the key really is getting new members on board, because only us die-hard fanatics buy memberships 2 months after our team finished 16th.

    We're all suckers for the pain, and we must inflict it on others :D

    Yeah, I get that alot from friends recently who are opposition supporters, "...you Melbourne members are suckers for punishment"..they say.

    After telling them to go stick it, I say, "what goes around comes around, sunshine" - I'm waiting for that day to come, the last 2 years has been long enough. Seeing our new recruits drafted recently on the back of Morton, Grimes, etc from last year and the turnover of the list has given me hope and much needed ammunition for the future when the tables will be turned. :D

    What did he say?

    It was a promo for a charity auction of a house for the Reach Foundation. They also asked him about the potential Richmond/Polak/Cousins issue.

    No news on the MFC.

    It's off-season, (no offence to the dees but) they've flogged the draft horse, the ben cousins horse, and pretty much every other horse for footy news, where else can they go if they want to keep talking about footy, which they always will on SEN!

    For one, I don't care, I love hearing about the Dees on the radio, the more the better :D

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
