    You want it to be a repeat of the bears do you??? These clubs need to be successful from the get go to attract a following..... AFL have learnt from the bad news bears..... They will not let this fail. Expansion is good for the game across all levels

    If you boycott Melbourne vs gc games in Melbourne you are just hurting your own club

    No way mate...i see where you are coming from, But's it's the wrong way to go about it. These 2 new Teams who are plastic and Soulless yes, but they represent 16 points to us each year.

    Whenever these Bastard Clubs come to Melbourne to play the MFC i want them to feel cold & intimidated, for that to happen we need all the supporters there in full voice.

    That's the best way to kill them off. B)

    They're trying to grow the game in the face of other sports growing,,, Soccer.

    So they've brought in 2 New teams, one in NSW & one in Qld, whats wrong with that?

    I don't think we have anything to be afraid of with 2 new teams.

    Is this thread serious??!?

    Wow.

    So... your solution is to penalise your own team by not showing up to games..?

    I, Chook, do solemnly swear to never attend a Gold Coast Suns or Greater Western Giants home game.

    Considering I'd have to travel at least 900 km to do so, that's not much of a statement, though.

    I have no problem with these new 'plastic clubs.'

    The fact is - we should have two clubs in the heathen states, the AFL is in a fantastic position to push into there, and the alternative to these 'plastic clubs' is the relocation of the established ones the OP loves so much.

    It is such a no-brainer that I really get tired of this crap. I have moved recently to Canberra and this place is ripe for the effing picking all the way up to Campbelltown. Rugby League is a little kid playing with his .... and Union is [censored] boring.

    After the sarcatic meter is introduced by the Admin, can we look at a spellcheck function or alternatively sack the Education Minister?

    I will be going to any game MFC are playing in SIMPLE. People seem to forget that all of the clubs agreed and signed off on these conditions including Melbourne.

    No. Rhino's play on sarcatic (sarcastic) was in response to the OP's use of platic (plastic).

    You're not getting much support around here tatu, and you won't get any from me. Given the $s that are being poured into these Clubs, I hope like hell that they do succeed, and are able to stand on their own feet, without being propped up by the AFL, in a short space of time. Unfortunately, I think this is highly unlikely.

    HaHaHa! The Puns and pathos are rocking out now. I must say the OP is beautifully crafted though!

    Boycotts are rarely effective and often hurt the people they were intended to help in the first place.

    This is a prime example.

    Mart are

    Why anyone would want to boycott an MFC match is just beyond my comprehension.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
