Is it me or does this seem to happen almost every year now?! My poor old stickers lasted about 2 weeks in constant 33 degree Queensland heat!

Surely the club have learnt their lesson and are getting them manufactured by a company different to the last couple of years?

I haven't been in or near my car in over a month, due to injury, so I haven't noticed if mine have faded, but the stickers on our other car appear fine.

Still, you'd think the bloody factory which has made that same mistake over and over, would learn to check the quality of their products, instead of spending unnecessary money reprinting stickers every year.

Good to see the club being proactive and sending out replacements and notifying members.

I know a few Print companies have had an involvement with Melbourne but if those responsible read this, "Please use the Lightfast/Pigmented inks next time".It might be a little bit more expensive but this will save tears welling in the eyes of many.

Its a bit embarrassing when others wonder why you have a little square of white adhesive label paper stuck to your rear window!

Mine are fine. The 2010 sticker on the number plate and the jumper MEMBER 10 one on the back window.

In other news I'm shattered at losing my OBAMA '08 bumper sticker in a bumper bar swap after some [censored] ran into me in traffic.

Mine are fine too and have had a lot of exposure to the merciless Perth heat. Different batches maybe.

Sorry to read that you are injured Jaded. Not soft tissue injury I hope! I also know that you wouldn't blame poor old Bohdan. Get fit soon.

Not soft tissue, but a fractured patella like Scully. I have sympathy injuries! :)

Had a look at my car today, and stickers are still looking brand new, despite my car sitting in the sun with them for over a month. I must have gotten a good batch.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
