Edit: PS, Watch the game @ Leighoak or Bentleigh, then attend, The Storm NRL game enmass in protest.

Being an away game its very tempting dee-luded but I think the boys will need all our support. Lets lift the roof off and wear black arm bands.

+1. The boys will have additional fire in their belly after this - give them even more fuel by being there and being noisy. I'd be there in an instant if I could.

Feeling very hollow about the AFL and this decision.

I know it is sad but I have been wondering what the result would be like if this was a collingwood player or a suns player. Or even a player with a chance of a charlie....

Sorry thats was petty.

But the whole thing stinks.

Stick it to the AFL this week demons and rip those kangas apart

Just watched one after the other. The impact of milburn's tackle seemed greater. And trengrove got up straight away and laid another tackle. There was nothing malicious in it. My opinion is that it was a straight forward tackle of a player who knew he was going to be tackled but chose to kick instead of hand passing therefore leaving himself on one leg as he is tackled thus resulting in putting himself off balance and easily thrown during said tackle. But that's just me.

I really like this idea! But for the black arm bands to be effective, you would need people to know what they are for - anyone got any media contacts? I will bring the black duct tape! :)

Once upon a time there was a handsome prince who played for Carlton. One day he gauged the face of an opponent drawing blood. He got charged and because he was the afl poster prince he got let off. A few weeks later he won the Charlie whilst his victim looked on. True story

Oh it sucks balls alright, but winning is now very important so the AFL will continue to hear our rage.

Welcome the New Melbourne Football Club.

Who is going to the game on Saturday? Who will put on a black arm band with me? I have just been informed that the HS news desk is aware of this (I reposted it on the Free Demon Jack page), so hopefully we will get some coverage. Who is game for a grass roots demonstration of our disquiet with this decision? :lol:

Message to the MFC

Much harder to appeal than to get it right the first time !!!

Why didnt you get Galbally in the first f-ing place ?? he got Richards off..gets many off.. but we tried to do it by ourselves.

Hope weve all learnt a valuable lesson here....besides the AFL being a bunch of pricks that is !!

We had an experienced advocate at the Tribunal and Galbally would have done no better. The word "preordained" just springs to mind.

I wonder how long it will be before the AFL becomes the ANCFL ?

(NC=non contact)

How about our 18 players and their 18 players have a fingerpainting contest? Wait - those papercuts can hurt! :(

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.
