"PRESIDENT Jim Stynes is calling on the red and blue army to come out in force - and wear their flashing Demon horns - for this Friday night’s clash with Carlton."

As the article says this is MFC only home Friday night game for the year, and we are encouraged to wear our demon horns

I think that i will wear them, yeah they are kinda tacky, and my Carlton mates who i am going with will have a good laugh... but who knows 35 thousand pairs of these might actually look good, and let the boys know that they have alot of support at the game

What is everyone elses opinions on this, will you bring them?

And what type crowd can we get to this game?

I reckon 50K+ hopefully pushing 55-60 (this is optimistic i know)

    I may be the loudest person in the MCC by a long way (I normally sit with the plebs with general admin, but my friends have MCC so I'm forking out and going with them) but I will not be.

    I said yes, Jimmy has asked and as much as I will feel like a complete dill I will at least have them on at some point.

    Didn't even take them when I picked up the scarf, so no.

    I'll be there as always. I'm like Pates I don't want to but at some point will don them. I hope it gets the same effect as the ACDC concert, Looked awesome.

    Will be working this friday night, but i should be able to watch the last 3 Quarters on TV at the local.

    Yeah, the club should think of more logical campaigns. Instead of spending the money on these horn, they should have just given out cheap, blood-red t-shirts for free and encouraged fans to create a "Red Sea" or something.

    YeH I'm going with my Carlton wife pre planned at the start of the season not real keen to see us get smashed. As for the horns why not! Agree though could spend the money on something else the horns are a bit tacky

    I will give them a go, yeah they are kinda tacky but would really like to see the G lit up and if i dont do it i guess i cant count on others to provide the impression

    Really think it could be good with heaps of lights flashing in the dark surrounds

    I'm going, and will take the horns.

    All my friends, and I mean all of them, are dirty Carlton supporters. If we win I'm wearing those bad boys out after the game when we go out. Surely that's enough motivation for the boys to win this one :P

    I'll be making the trip and I'll be wearing those I wore at the concerts last year. Looked excellent.

    I'll be moving house Friday to Sunday so there will be no chance of me going this week. After going to the Dome the past couple weeks i feel like i need the rest!

    Needless to say the TV will be set up around the open boxes around the house to see Olivia and Jimma perform 'Xanadu'

    I'll be there for sure. Match is actually on at the same time as a concert I really wanted to see, so instead of missing one or the other I've taken Thursday & Friday off work and am flying to Adelaide on the Thursday to watch the concert there that night, then flying back to Melbourne friday afternoon to catch the footy!

    My horns don't work though (don't flash) so wont be wearing them.

    Sorry to be so negative Jaded but you have to have the skill level to win.

    No amount of desire will cover a big difference in the relative skill level in the two teams.

    With our current injury level we are not in the same league as Carlton.

    Unfortunately A hiding coming up I think

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
