"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 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.

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 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

    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

    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.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
