I'd love to see the club erase the debt this season. However, going on last season's wipeoff, it may take another fundraiser in addition to this year's to see it totally wiped.

Will all depend on how the Team Performs, if they pull of some great wins-you watch the supporters wake up. We have a very large dormant following out there.

Have the new stickers been sent out yet? I haven't received any.

The new stickers 'should be' with the Season Preview which is due in the next couple of days, the stickers were replaced at no cost to the Club, company who manufactured had to cover (From Membership meeting I attended)

I agree - 2011 a realistic goal.

Is the phrase 'you can only go to the well so many times'?

I'm not sure if it is, but I'm sure you understand what I'm saying.

I vaguely remembered something like this being a big focus in the pre-season, and lo and behold, our aim for this year was to be about $750,000 in debt:

"We are quite ambitious with regard to where we hope to be at the end of the year," Schwab told The Sunday Age.

"We would like to be well under $1 million by the end of the year."

Well we smashed that, didn't we? And we thought it was 'ambitious' to aim for a debt of under $1 million! Shows how far this club has come, and how damn well we're doing under the Stynes-Schwab administration.

welcome HT

time zones aside... i love d'land... its my connection back to the real world. being so far away from it, this is the first year ive gotten into these forums (always read, never contributed-- and it seems my contribution is only for small things like timezones!) but im so grateful for it.

sometimes i wish i could filter it, but i read most threads.

keep up the good work, lock out the d'heads and GO DEES!

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
