Fans will be allowed onto the MCG arena after this Sunday’s game against Gold Coast, as a way of thanking us supporters this year.

Will this be enough to bring in the crowd? The weather looks like it will be favourable.

I’m predicting 16,500 (I was going to say 15,000)

14,500. Pathetic, like always.

I wish the only thing I got embarrassed about at games as our team's performance, but sadly no, the lack of supporters is just as bad.

Even nostradamus couldn't pick what our weird,retro and eclectic bunch of supporters will bring this week ... Thats what we should love bout our supporter base. What other club can claim variety?? Were all fickle to some extent, & as a loyal fan,member,etc,etc, even I've been battered and bruised this yr but am ready to face the music again and miss another bumper ski season.

I look forward to being branded "fair weather-bandwagon jumper" in a few years time.

Not enough to break even I'm afaird. 15,000ish if we're lucky. Probably closer to 12 or 13.

Considering that the Chinese AFL team will be there and some more International Teams i think that 15-20k is achievable at best. A nice surplus is always welcome.

17500, the extra 2.5k as a combination of a (presumed) easy win and it being the last home game of the year.

Not quite sure Jaded why you are so upset.

Crowd support is always determined by how a team is travelling.

It is not peculiar to the Dees.

When you have had the season we have had particularly the last 5 weeks I am not surprised at all.

I am an addict and I considered if I would go on Sunday.

The prospect of being beaten by GC is a real possibility.

Add to that all the negative stuff of the last month

and getting beaten last week by the tigers.

All adds up to a crap end of season.

I have 2 member friends who have tossed it in for 2011.

I will be going on my own this week.

I don't blame them our team stinks at present

This may be their only way of expressing their displeasure.

I think 18915

Hoping for a win, will be my last game for a long time. Moving to Canada so will definately try to snag a few on the ground afterwards. Bringing a few mates for my going away drinks!

I'm going but really...it's pretty damn tough to even get mildly excited in these last few games. At least there's a couple of new players to watch.

I can't blame people for not showing up this year. Even these 'sure things' are likely to be a nail-biting disaster that can ruin your week.

Least inspiring season I can remember in my 32 years. :mellow: ...and watching Collingwood wipe the floor with Freo tonight, I just can't imagine anyone in this current crop getting us anywhere near that level of footy. Even their first year player Fasolo is turning out to be better than 90% of our team... What the hell! How does that happen?

We'll be lucky to get this number - but I'm going with 17,560.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
