Not to mention the general atrociousness of the video!

    They actually released that video and campaign well before Ablett and Thompson left.

    It's just a slow news day at the Hun so they decided to run with it as a story.

    It's funny now that they based their campaign on loyalty and have since had both best player and coach slip out the back door.

    Ouch............. Love to see them fall from the 8 this year. Hopefully we can show them how slow they have become.

    My guess is that it's a year 9 media student's assignment, or produced by a kid on work experience.

    Great foresight then to have Scott in there as the role of the "coach" and to leave Ablett out of the video.

    That has to be one of the worst membership videos I've seen. Looks like something Billy has knocked up with the local primary school. Hardly motivational.

    Iirc they filmed multiple versions, leaving Ablett in & out as it was just before "The Decison 2010 II".

    The inclusion of Scott must have been refilmed after Thompson dropped his bombshell.

    There's a fair amount of agro around hey.

    It's indeed pretty hard to realise if you didn't know that they'd filmed different versions, I don't see how (without that knowledge) I could've "realised" - you could've just stated that in your first post.

    Regardless, woeful video!

    agro? WHO YOU CALLING AGRO?!?!??

    Are you saying I'm a muppet..?

    Maybe it's all the christmass shopping putting people on edge...

    oh dear :wacko:

    looks more like something done for the footy show

    I think that may be the feel they were going for.

    It'd work just fine, if it was only intended as a short segment on the Footy Show.

    Seeing as it's a vehicle to increase membership sales, it fails miserably.

    Geelong is the sort of the place that will still get their quota in the end...

    There was a report in the papers about the filming of the video and how they did multiple versions in case Ablett left.

    I imagine the extra time was due to the need to film a different ending involving Scott.

    Just add sub-titles and it would be perfect for SBS

    yup, the Cats will be pretty cold this year

    I hope you are right.

    After 2 wins in 20 years at the cattery I am looking forward to a win down there this year.

    If we pull that Off We will know we have a good team on our hands.

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • 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.
