The Draw

Featured Replies

Why is it that Schwabby can trumpet on about being a section of the MCC again and then we still have to sell a home MCG game to Darwin?

Melbourne v Port at the G is a unmitigated disaster financially for us as Port has little support over in Melbourne and our supporters can be very blase about going along to the games for whatever feeble reasons that they can come up with if our team is playing badly. The club has lately lost money on these games so how can going to Darwin, aside from the travel factor be a bad thing?

If we were a real finals contender, and lets face it noone expects us to be, then sure the selling games might not be an issue but if we get $500,000 or thereabouts isnt that better for our finances than losing money on a pathetic crowd?

Until our supporters all become members and all that possibly can go to a game, go then we need to take whatever measures we can to get rid of our debt.

Basically a lot of it is up to us. We go to the games and regularly get 30,000 + attendances then maybe we wont need Darwin etc but until then I say Darwin here we come!!

 
Damn it not as much footy for me this season... Great for the club, not great for my MFC viewing as I play/coach footy Saturdays.

Yeah I work Saturdays and have to get it taped and mum to send me the scores by SMS. It is nerve-wracking waiting.. but its better for crowds and corporate events which bring in the $$.

Second half of the season, which hopefully will be a lot more pleasing to watch, will be mostly Sundays.

In Caro's article in today's Age, she says that this year's fixture is a reward from the AFL for straightening up our off-field affairs. Apparently Jimmy really wanted to have a youth themed match in 2009, but we weren't allowed it (or much else that we wanted) because of how bad a state we were in. Now, we've fixed things up, we have a much brighter future, and the AFL has decided to be nice to us and give us a lot of what we weren't given in 2009.

So what's this 'Youth Round' all about?

Looking at Juice this year!

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
