Perhaps we shouldn't.

Here are the options as I see it Redleg.

- We except the Current

- We fight the people who we need $millions from to survive and a priorty Pick at year end.

My decision is go with the white jumper.

    missing the point od

    [1]. mfc vs giants - both use regular jumpers - conclusion = no clash

    [2].giants vs mfc - mfc wear clash strip, giants wear regular - conclusion = clash

    so how do you accept that od? which one to accept, point [1] or point [2]?

    I agree

    I seriously think the club ought make a stand one game where theres NO REAL clash and we accidentally ( Football depts being what they are sometimes :rolleyes: ) turn up to a game with only our REAL jumpers..as a fait accompli.

    They can fine us they can get shirty and we will tell everyone enough of this bullshlt...enough.

    They wont forfeit the game they would have to let it go ahead and then theyd realise what a crock of shlt it all is.

    Sometimes progress is only made by breaking the so called rule of the day.

    Eddie said first! Eddie told the AFL to get stuffed over jumpers! Essendon wasn't paying Golden Boy! Some clubs do as they please while we bend over and are the recipient of a painful insertion.

    I understand you dc

    What I am trying to tell you is we would be fighting city hall.

    GWS are the AFL team

    We are paupers who depend on the AFL for our existence.

    Until we are profitable and a power in the league we are powerless,

    The MFC board / management will not fight on this subject.

    We will just have to suck it up for the next five years minimum.

    End of story I am afraid

    AD does realise that that makes no sense whatsoever !!! What ever logic he applies to the eve game must surely apply to the day game.

    Another Vlad fail.

    good job AD is f'ing off then. Maybe another bloke can sell the game better

    The point I was making was that the Suns weren't forced to wear that anemic mainly white strip last Sunday but when we go over there, we're forced to wear white. It doesn't make any sense.

    No, it doesn't make any sense, but it is the AFL we are talking about ... :) I did notice that Hawthorn wore a white abomination when they played the Suns at Metricon (and I think the Suns wore something similar in their MCG game against us last year).

    Just back from camp and immediately see that the level of discourse has not leapt out of the gutter .

  • Quote

    I just have to ask Biff - what was the nature of this "camp"?

    I cannot disclose the full nature of this one although it is not Lordweavers'Chrtistian re-education service nor was it one forced upon me by the Justice Department.

    It did involve beer,children ,and a river-in order of importance.

    Nobody was killed but several of the children suffered minor injuries,

    An overall success in my books.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
