How to keep them all is the problem DF. 

I wish I could still do all the things I was able to do pre-stroke but  life moves on. It would be very difficult to keep the same team for sale an extended time due to salary caps, lack of opportunity for certain players etc. Also the club needs to improve the list by developing it future players as the list ages. I am glad to only be an arm chair critic and leave the hard decisions to other more capable people. 

As a supporter I am still trying to recover from all the previous failed rebuild over a 57 year period. Atleast we finally got the latest rebuild right.

GO THE DEES!

I would like to order another three premierships in the next three years.

All for it

I really need to dig deep and pay for a dl sub .

Im getting too many click here to see these drone naughty pics type of clickbait.

I hate to say it, but Mark Neeld was right. Melbourne has become the hardest team to score against. And ultimately it was due to him being the head coach. But more importantly becoming a galvanising figure for the club to focus on the rebuilds of all rebuilds, the one that ultimately ruled all others!

My hope is that we never recruit another person from Collingwood again! Wait where did our current CEO come from again? Oh that right from Fitzroy, everything is good again.

Cannot say I like the idea Mr. Leg. Night games leave me cold ( pun intended). Cold, trains at night are far from fun, the crap involved in simply getting in and getting home at some ungodly hour. I am trying to convince myself that I should go. The trouble with being the champs is we get very few day games.

Appropriate af

Edit: unless of course it’s the four-letter ‘rude’ word to which you refer. I trust the mods won’t object when they see my feeble attempt to cover it.

Yes! That day, I happened to be sitting directly behind two of their fans, oh wait, I mean, their two fans and they were as obnoxious as 1000 fans from any other club. Except Essendon, of course.

IMO All other AFL Clubs purpose is so we can beat them up (on the score board). Their fans should understand this and sit quietly while it happens or become a Dees supporter (Collingwood and Essendon supporters need not apply).

Love it DF. It appears your noggin problem has not robbed you of your wit. Hang in there.

Just purchased a Melbourne pen from Coles. Push the button and it plays It a Grand Old Flag. You should all get one to annoy anyone who is not a true believer! 🙂

I’ve got five of them 😁 

They’re not as good as last year’s which was a bubble blower and a Go Dees stamp and and a pen all in one. I’ve still got a couple of those.

Never had Melbourne fc stuff in Coles before this year. 

Sounds like I need to get another 4 pens. So I can keep up with the Jones 😆 

I did also get some Melbourne band aids for when we lose our first game in 2022. It will be a messy time.

I buy MFC stuff every season. Maybe it differs from store to store but I know they’ve stocked footy stuff for at least the last four years. 
If you wanna keep up with the Joneses you’re gonna need a bigger boat. 😆

This season I’ve bought multiples of everything Dees in the store: pens, bandaids, tea towels, toothbrushes, stubby holders, cakes of soap, lip balm, hand sanitiser, little teddy bear, (not big teddy coz they didn’t have any), coffee mug, plastic tumbler, soup mug, beer mug, coasters, deck of cards and that’s about it. For now. 😁

I left out a couple of things: a throw (blanket) and a hot water bottle cover (I don’t own a hot water bottle. Are they even still a thing?) And they had two new bobble heads: Clarrie, and Max holding the premiership cup. I didn’t buy those, my friend bought them for me and now they proudly stand next to Tracc from last year and last year’s Maxy. 

And of course, the shopping bags. I got a ton of those. In fact, I happen to have one on me now…

You’ve got a lot of catching up to do!

Just remembered the socks. There’s ankle socks, long socks, and this year there’s also bed socks. I think that’s it now. 😊

Only 20k. All Dees supporters on a Saturday night is a good result IMO.
