Honestly. Its time we share the Queens birthday match.

'Thanks very much for letting us have in for the past 15 years. But we are back on our feat now.'

It would be great to hear that from the club. Especially as Eddie is holding it over us like a bully.

The QB match is our fixturing request. As far as I know Collingwood DO NOT have input in terms of this game as a fixturing request, preffering to request Premium slots, ANZAC Day, etc. It suits them because 1) They get an additonal game at the MCG where their premium members have seats 2) They are part of a stand alone fixture so still get publicity, profile, exposure from it 3) They get to claim they are being charitable

We can always request to play QB against someone else, say Richmond and Collingwood can play Freo at Docklands in a Sunday twilght.

Regarding the QB's game, I hate the notion that we are indebted to the Pies. On several occasions, Eddie has threatened to take the game of us.

Why can't it be the other way around? Hypothetically thinking, I'd much rather play Richmond, alternating who's home game it is each year and really starting a strong rivalry with them.

If both clubs experience success in the not too distant future, on public holiday the game would easily attract well over 50k.

I agree JB. Richmond supporters have been going to the G for 2 generations. I think if Richmond ever drag themselves out of the bottom half of the ladder for a sustained period this fixture could easily surpass Collingwood in terms of attendance year-in/year-out.

Notice how the afl website has nothing on the story. Maybe the boss will ask for a please explain and remind him who runs this league.

I was always very impressed that he got our plight and let us have QB. Just a reminder that this guy does nothing from the goodness of his heart

I can see it now, crackr E'd & Vlad in a secret rendevous meeting discussing putting a Lid on the loud Dees.

The meeting would be like a Poll Pot Party. Just add ricky.

"We are happy to just go long and we create our own people, we find them and train them and groom them."

I'm sure Malthouse will be very content and can finally rest easy now that he knows who it was who found him, trained him and groomed him

I'm sure Green, Davey, Sylvia, & others are relieved any approaches from E'd anywhere Have Been just a joke.

Eddies going to say what Eddie says he is angry at the world because Pendles announced to the club that he will not be at the club in 2013, so let hime have his rant the football world will scoff and all will be well...Not saying Pendles is going to GWS either but quote me he is gone and they know it already.

I agree. We might take a bit of a hit in the pocket a first but I'm pretty sick of the day being spoken about like it's a freakin' charity funraiser for us. Talk to Richmond, share it as a home game and tell those toothless scum they are not welcome on our ground that day.

No. The QB fixture with the filth must remain even if it is shared.

Neeld v Buckley is going to be a great rivalry.

Maybe this is Vlad's chance to prove that he is not what the AFL home page said for 15 minutes the other day....... :lol:

Yep , spot on .

Thomas takes an age to sign , Pendlebury signs a 1 year only deal , Cloke hasn't extended his contract and is a free agent at years end , Swan talks about retirement , they've sacked their premiership coach and according to Eddie , Nathan has to deliver a flag in his 1st year .

They had a great thing going and now look . If they lose Pendlebury and/or Cloke , their window is shut IMO .

Cheers

The Club would be wrong to say that and they should sack their copyrighter. B)

I reckon 50 years of sustained success at Tigerland will get them close to the Pies.

True. We are a long way away from being out of the woods yet. Hence selling games to Darwin.

Still,we are no where near how bad we were 5-10 years ago.

It's not like we would be giving up the rights every year. Just every second year.

I don't like the idea of playing another team on Queens birthday. The rivalry with Collingwood goes back a long way.

We just need to re-stoke it a little bit. Poaching some more of there staff would be a good start.

Smashing them for the next 10 years would be a nice touch aswell.

Ed should stick to his own club without using' broady' tactics on others. looks like Andrew K has ruputured his ACL, sad for the guy but sucks to you eddie, pies should have tried harder to keep davis

Another injury??

He only came back last week!

More sweat beads for Bucks....eddie may literally explode soon.

And their fans were talking "Dynasty" after 2010 . Not going to happen .

Can't stand GW$ but I hope they throw the kitchen sink at Pendlebury . We might have a go at Travis .

That'll teach 'em

He has no point whatsoever.

Eddie's a great business man, smart, but arrogant as hell, and a patronising [censored] at times. Must be hard working your arse off to get Melbourne up and going again, only to have this guy speak about your club like as if it's nothing.

The guy is butthurt and frustrated.

It's fair game. This always happens: someone goes out of contract, and he/she is offered a job elsewhere. Just so happens we have someone close to Collingwood staff.

He's a butthurt moron sometimes. Love listening to him in the mornings, but Jesus Christ he can be an [censored].

Eddie McGuire =Sooki Lala

Hes fine and magnaminous whilst the 'other' clubs behave themselves and allow Collingwood to strut... But hey... We arent here to play...were here to win the choccies Eddie.. Learn to live with it .

What a terrible 24 hours for the pies .

All criminals belong at Collingwood or in jail so it was disappointing to hear about Andrew Krackouers knee today .

Hope he is right for season 2013 whether he remains in or out of the can .

By that time Collingwood should have imploded like a failed Souffle` and with some luck Eddie will be a deep puce colour in the face .

Oh Karma-thank you .

why isn't eddie being censured by the afl for suggesting he has them in his pocket, making false accusations, threatening clubs and generally bringing the game into disrepute

different strokes for different folks? c'mon vlad let's see if you have any cahones

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
