Recommended Posts

We're the third oldest football club in the world, we ain't going nowhere!

I thought it was a dispute between Sheffield United and the Melbourne Football Club as to who was the oldest football club? Who is the other? Have I got Sheffield right?

I know we're definately the oldest club to remain at the elite level of competition for it's given code.

Hell no. I only want one club, two colours, one song, one home ground and one passion. That is the Melbourne football club, red and blue, its a grand old flag, MCG and again the Melbourne football club.

send them both back to the SNAFL and problem solved. WHO CARES ABOUT WHAT COMES OUT OF SA

SA has given the country some amazing gifts over the years.... To name a few....

Herpes, Syphillis, Rodney Maynard, Wayne Weidermann, Don Dunstan, The Cornes Family, Bruce Abernathy....

Oh and did I mention Herpes? :lol:

This Poll is an absolute joke!!! To have one of the greatest Football teams of ANY code of Football merge with the possibly the scrubbiest football club of all history is lunacy!!

The Melbourne Football Club is one of the oldest Football clubs in the history of any Football code in the world! I believe it is the in the top 20 oldest! Also one of the few who are still operating and playing! This club is Australian Rules Football! To have it merged with any other club would be absolutely ludicrous! The MFC is steeped in tradition and history that no one will ever be able to take away from us. You think of the greats of AFL: Ron Barrassi Jr, E.J Whitten and the greatest coach of all time Norm Smith. Melbourne lays claim to some of the greatest people in the history of the AFL!

When people ask me who I support in the AFL i have no hesitations in saying the Melbourne Demons, even though i know i will cop some slack. I'm so proud to go for this great club and every person who posts on this forum are true examples of why it will always be the Melbourne Demons Football Club. All the posters on here share the same passion I do and us fans are the reason why we make the club so great. Breaking the 30,000 member mark is just the beginning! We are showing the AFL world that we don't care about the results atm and that we are in for the long road no matter the suffering on the way! We are ranked 9th in the member ladder atm, this poll should have nothing to do with MFC, why not merge Bulldogs and North, St Kilda and North, Sydney and Bulldogs??!!

In a few years time, we will make Wayne Jackson eat his own words by making the finals and being financially stable because all greats things in life come with sacrifice and hard work, and that's what we are going through right now! So Shut up Wayne Jackson and worry about playing Golf and sipping on your Pims!!! WE ARE THE MELBOURNE DEMONS FOOTBALL CLUB and neither YOU or ANYONE else will take that away from us! MFC EST. 1858 - Deceased - NEVER!!!

Well said Brother. Remember Wayne Supports Woodville West Torrens in the SANFL, a merged club. I feel deep down he is jealous of our historic past, knowing he can never understand our pride.

I'm surprised anyone's taking this seriously. Of course Pies fans are going to vote for a merger of any club not black and white. And people are surprised by this?

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
