Call me stupid but I still had $51.00 in my Sportsbet account and, you guessed it. I invested $50.00 on the dees. Stamp DH on my forehead.

Next time Bbo just stick it in an envelop and post it to me.

    I think the MFC need to funds more.

    Not a good year in so many ways.

    On a brighter note think we will finish second or third last this year as last place will surely be given to the Drug Lords.

    Poor old Messendon their GOD (Hird) has let them all down so badly.

    I hate drugs in sport and it looks like we will not see much of cycling for years to come as the sport appears to be much worse the anything Messendon has done.

    Surely 2023 will be a better year for the MFC as the stars will be in our favour.

    apparently Mr Hird was a way of keeping yourself younger for Longer. No sure you may like the side effects but I guess what ever it takes to see the 13th Premiership must be a good thing?

    Definately won't see that in my lifetime TBF

    Best I can hope for is a strong team on and off the field.

    Winning more games than losing is about the best I can hope for unfortunately.

    An admirable show of faith, BBO. Pity about the result, but the boys did respond with their lowest losing margin of the year. Gotta count for something, I guess, such as it is this year...

    I did mine too bb

    very similar civil but curt covers it.

    I think they would be surprised if they got much positive after the last two years

    Tanking

    Sacked coach who was poor

    Half the board gone.

    CEO sacked

    Big Fin loss coming up

    playing list that could not beat time with a stick.

    No Fun watching this team for over 44 games.

    Prospects for 2014 dismal

    Don't think they would need a survey to know that the troops are far from happy.

    Not sure why you would do one at present.

    I took advantage of the opportunity to convey a message to the Membership people.

    I simply told them that if the club appoints another apprentice type assistant as coach to simply cancel my membership and to convey this sentiment to whomever should hear it.

    sick to death of this clubs amateurism

    Well scathing doesnt necessarily infer profane. Scathing can mean harshly critical and ...yes.... Red...I was.

    In the context of the nature of the survey I let the loaded barrels go bang !!

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
