Better attendances will get us better draws so we need everyone to go along that can possibly go.

No more excuses - you have heaps of Saturdays and loads at the MCG.

If I could go every week, I would and just cant understand people not going when they have no real valid reason for not supporting their team.

For the record, I plan to come to at least 2 games down in Melb next year and of course the Gabba game.

According to http://www.afl.com.au/portals/0/afl_docs/f...re_document.pdf Round 1 vs Hawthorn was requested by both clubs to promote a 'youth' theme.

Also, looking forward to Round 11, when we get to play Carlton, and hence Brock McLean.

Good result home game rd 1 with Scully and Trengove likely to be unveiled and Watts and others as well. Only Saturday arvo game in town and not on TV. Hopefully a bumper crowd.

Very happy with the draw, I think 10 wins, maybe more, is very possible.

Can't wait for 2010!!!

Good draw....

but how can round 1 and 2 games vs Collingwood and Hawthorn on Saturday afternoon be broadcasted on Fox? Surely a mistake...

Just like the old days on Saturdays. If you wanted to see the Game, you went to the Game.

Big crowd means a Big atmosphere to go with our new team...

hear hear

Club says 15 MCG games, I only count 14. Etihad only twice is good too.

Just the one Friday Night is a bit of a bummer, but at least it's vs the Dogs, who should be top 4.

We got 15 MCG matches, but we gave up one to go to TIO stadium in Darwin, for the new venture. (better than Canberra and we now play Sydney at the G')

First 3/4 of the draw is magic!

Tho the 'free-to-air' deal is again horrid. Guessing it will improve as our membership does,

but 19 out of 22 games on free-to-air for The Filth and Carlscum is over the top.

Happy with this!

Tough 1st 3 games is a slight concern, I just hope we don`t get flogged and young players drop their heads for a few weeks after.

Best of all, only 1 twilight game and it`s an away game against the saints. We must have had 2 or 3 Sunday twilight home games this year which cost the club a small fortune with shockn crowds and just crap atmosphere to be at!

7 or 8 wins next year will do nicely

I think 10 wins would be wishful thinking unless we really take a big leap next year...maybe?

8 wins would be a good season for MFC.

Awesome home night games at the G,

I get the impression the AFl like dealing with clubs who have former footy players or football background in positions of power

compare stynes and schwab vs gardiner and harris

I suspect that unless you have played football or have connections and work in the afl , you generally dont go far (jill Lindsay being an exception)

in the AFL
