Long ago , before the Tigers , Magpies , and whomever else now calls it home , the MCG was our sole domain , so much so , that spread across the ENTIRE front ledge of the outer stand , now known as the Southern stand , was a professionally written and attached sign that read :

Forever Forward Dashing Demons , The Greatest Ever Exponents Of Professional Football .

Now I'm not very good as guesstimating distances but there wouldn't have been much change from 200 metres , so it was obviously an imposing sight .

I know a sign like this is obviously inappropriate and probably even ' daggy ' ,but what can we now do to make a similarly obvious statement , now that the 'wandering son' has come home ?

Is it just to obvious?

We're Back

I think it was "Greatest Ever Exponents of Perfection Football". We also had a banner which read, "Melbourne, Masters of the MCG".

They know we're coming.

"'wandering son' has come home", or has the estranged family members settled their differences?

I'm sure there was problems & fault from both sides.

Didn't you just love those Huge Banners in the 70's across the southern stand & around the Picket Fence. True Glory.

So wish we could do that even just once, again.
