Please!!!

It is so frustrating. I thought they would have fixed this by now. We hardly get a chance to win and when we finally do, you can't even here the song in the speakers...

who is the best person for me to email about this.

It may fall on deaf ears mate. :lol:

The same needs to be said about the siren actually. I cant tell you how many times I have wondered why the have stopped running, only to realise the siren has gone. Iam sure this has happen only after the last 2 years. Unless, i am actually going deaf.

Agree.

Also, what's the deal with the trumpet player? Firstly, I'm not a fan of it. And secondly, you can't hear him anyway, at least I haven't been able to pretty much every time he's performed this year. I see him on the scoreboard but can only faintly hear it above the murmuring of the crowd.

was he there yesterday? I didn't notice him at all, unless he was on while I was still in the Redlegs room.

also, did anyone hear the bagpipe player down towards the Punt Road oval? I'd parked at the Richmond Social Club, realised when I got to my car that I'd left my jacket in the Redlegs area, walked all the way back again, stayed for the raffle and then walked back to my car. All this would have taken over half an hour, and the entire time that bagpipe player was still going...

Yeah, I walked past her on my way to the train. She went ok. Plenty of people were tossing gold coins her way, so I think she did ok.

I would prefer to hear bagpipes before the game than a trumpet.

What I'd actually prefer though would be an electric guitar ripping the club song Hendrix style. But I don't think that'll be happening somehow.

What I would also like, and I think we should do this, is in that 10 minutes of time between when the teams run onto the field and the game actually starting, we should play a song, the same song at the same time for each of our home games, like Liverpool do with 'You'll never walk alone.' I'm not sure what song it should be, probably something Australian, it could be modern, it could be some rock classic from decades ago, I don't know. But it could become like our 'second' club song. Anyway, just a thought.

Lyrics wise, does anyone else think the song "How far We've Come" by Matchbox Twenty is an odd choice of song to play at the ground? Singing about the end of the world tends to pessimistic thinking in my books.....

I can't stand the bag-pipes. Earlier in the season, she was absolutely raping our song. Since then she has improved, but still doesn't sound good IMO. I'd much prefer the trumpeter to be honest.

Each to their own i suppose.

Yeah, I still struggle to compehend that a set of bagpipes are considered to be a musical instrument. Having said that, she does a pretty good job; the little red horns that she wears go well too.

I'm impressed by her stamina! she's able to play for ages without seemingly taking a break!

The thing that annoys me is, at least in the MCC Members, you can hear the crap they play from their "Worst Pop/Rock of the 80s" album during the pre-match, but as soon as the theme songs are played someone fiddles with the volume. Credit where credit is due however, when we won on Saturday it was blaring out of the speakers behind us. No better feeling than pumping it out with 200-odd other MFC/MCC members/supporters. Not a feral in sight ;)

    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
