Taking signs into AFL matches

Is the general public allowed to take signs into games especially at the MCG? Is there a size limit or a certian section you have to be sitting in?

Ive always thought a big banner with "WELCOME TO HELL" would be good, whats everyone elses ideas?

Yes i would love to see more welcoming signs as the Demons climb the ladder. Opposition supporters have been giving it to us for decades. The MCG must become a feared place when the red & blue are there. Look at how Geelong OWN Kardinia. We are also still at our home ground.

The Club had a similar idea - that the MCG must be our "Home" ground - that teams should fear to play us there. So they got us a... bugal player. :blink:

 

Only time I've seen the AFL have an issue with a sign was the first North-Adelaide game when Carey played, as there were quite a few around about him and Anthony Stevens' wife around.

Josh love the idea but too often the MCG has been HELL for Dees supporters. I'll never forget that Brisbane game last year... the worst win I've ever suffered and yes not to far from HELL.


I just wanna see a huge "GOOD TIMES GRIMES" banner in the crowd. Would make my day.

Would give someone $20 to make a huge banner saying "I LOVE TRENGROVE, PETTARD AND MALONEY!!"

I'd give you $20 if you spelt more than a 1/3 of the players names correctly.

I hope this helps to the original question...

For the comfort, safety and enjoyment of all patrons, staff and event participants, and/or pursuant to MCG Regulations and the Major Sporting Events Act 2009 the following items are not permitted into the MCG:

- Alcohol

- Opened soft drink containers

- Cans/glass

- Torn-up paper

- Musical instruments

- Whistles

- Flags with handles exceeding 1.6 metres

- Fireworks/flares/laser lights

- Chairs/stools

- Rollerblades, skateboards or scooters

- Animals (guide and hearing animals excepted)

- Audio recording equipment/video cameras*

- Any large article that cannot be placed under a seat

- Any device that in the opinion of management has the potential to cause injury or public nuisance.

Oh dear.

Half an hour in the naughty chair...Haha Classic!

It's not like there will be an opposition fans to get narky at the GWS game so as long as your banner isn't one of those Port Adelaide style bay coverers or has foul language on it you should be fine.

I'm hoping the $2m Turd doesn't even make it to Round 13.

I want him to break down 20 minutes into the final quarter of Rnd13, with GWS 130 points down.

Beware though , MCC attendants are on constant alert for "offensive" signs to confiscate. I suspect any of ours which feature $cully won't last !

Why is this though? I mean, even if the players are a bit precious these days, it's not like they should actually be taking the time to read the signs. TV censorship maybe?

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
