I reckon Blues are good for around 30,000

You will probably get 2000 media ... who want to see blood and don't care what side its from ... B)

then there is us? Well on past performances I'm not confident. But, maybe this week may have woken a few up

I'm going for 15,000

Total ... 47,000 sadly not good enough.

Would have said 63k but the rainy weather bring it back to 57k. Games going to be pumped all week, guaranteed entertainment from the media's perspective, i.e. Can the Dees rebound and regain their pride?

And the Blues fans at feeling cockey enough to see us as lively but ultimately unsuccessful on Saturday. Allowing them the further gloat ...

Big crowd.

Any true MFC supporter should be keen to be at the G to see how the team we love responds...

52,354 plus my family (3) which makes 52,357.

There'll be plenty of Carltank supporters wanting to see the Blues romp away with a big percentage boost. I'm tipping they'll go home disappointed.

CFC home game, say 40k Carlton

MFC maybe 10k if lucky

50k or so

The 2:1 prediction from hangon was bad enough, but 4:1? Honestly? Ridiculous.

For some context, 47K were there for our Friday night home game versus Carlton earlier in the year.

Key being our home game. Carlton home game is a different kettle of fish.

MCC will stay about the same, but far more Carlton supporters will show.

And context is more based off other reports of the Hawthorn game, where people said we would have been lucky to have 10k.

This will be the weekend the true MFC supporters come to the fore. I've never anticipated a H&A match more in my life. The traditional bandwagoners will no doubt shirk the issue when the club truly requires their support. I've come to expect that of a large proportion of Melbourne supporters.

i think a lot of MFC supporters will turn up...Why?

Support Jimmy

after Garry Lyon's dialouge on FC and MMM

Tod Viney's presser....

I think this week will pull a crowd...if it turns ugly the eagles game will be very sparse, but if the team does ok, then all is not lost onfield for 2011.

55,000 +-

Agreed.

Geez that a bit strong ... hate? You will be right have a few for me ... Go dees

We should all get together for a drink soon...

That sounds good WYL however

The location needs to be away from Water, tall buildings, sharp implements, busy roads and Hardware Stores!

After Saturday we need to be somewhere safe.

Sorry to be negative but I have little confidence at the beginning of August

Every game against a good side has ended in tears and been over by quarter time.

What if there is little to be vocal about!

Old Dee........ I didnt say we were going to win on sat . I hope like buggery we do though . What im saying is our backs are to the wall and we are getting smashed from pillar to post as a club . This is no fault of the supportrers like us . I was just suggesting that rather than sit in dribs and drabs amongst the throng we stick together and let our feelings be known.... strength in numbers...

I know EGD I was just trying to injected a bit of humour.

Not saying I have not been infected with agony like most on here

but we all need to step back a little and remind ourselves it is only a game after all.

Lets hope we make a game of it and have something to cheer about for a large part of the game.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    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
