Can it get any worse for our club? I can't believe the growing amount of issues, news, sadness that is seemingly sending the club towards self-destruction.

Hate to raise all the negatives, but this is my list of recent events:

Stynes passing

Poor on-field performance

Criticised game plan

Racism rumours involving Neeld

Racism/Dumping of Energy Watch

Jurrah Machete

Sylvia Car Accident

Moloney Bar Incident

Senior players dropped from Leadership Group

Senior player performance

Green captaincy criticism and subsequent sacking

Trengove/Grimes captaincy criticism

Garry Lyon criticised over short term role

Scully Departure

Bailey Sacking

Schwab/Connelly issues around the Geelong loss time

The Geelong 186 Loss

Reports Neeld has lost the players

Neeld post match press conference criticism

James McDonald exit

Bruce exit

Tanking

Recruitment scrutiny

Watts high level scrutiny

Clark overpaid suggestions

Wona departure

Low Membership

Players apparently worked too hard over pre-season

On-field jumper presentation criticism

Blease missing team meeting

So, you are a "glass half full" sort of guy then...

and how well has the MFC handled everything.

Couldn't have been any better in my opinion

 

Win games of footy and i will believe we are improving. Until then anything is possible, today was proof.

Fully agree.

At least when you truly hit rock bottom, the only way is up.

As hard as the last few weeks and months have been, we will continue to support the club and if the day comes when we do secure that elusive 13th premiership, it will be all the more sweeter!

I honestly couldn't agree more. I don't think any footy club could ever have been through more in a 2 year period than us even the clubs that are dead like fitzroy. Absolutely rock bottom!! Couldn't be more ashamed of barracking for this club. Absolutely disgusted!

Well, I am ashamed of you, if you are disgusted by what has just happened.

Living up to your principles, even if it costs you, especially if it costs you, is to be valued and not disgusted.

To be honest the MFC doesn't need fair weather supporters like you. If

You are ashamed, you don't need to be here. This is not the time to sook and play victim. This is the time to stick with the MFC. They need supporters to be more dedicated and supportive than ever. They have dealt with all situations listed better than any of the other AFL clubs and the league itself.

For the first time ever we are debt free with a $6 million asset base. Is it all perfect? No. Do you think we should just pack up the club? No way.

Now is the time go hard and dip in again for the dees. After all this is OUR club. No one can take away the passion and heart and soul of the club no matter what. We will survive and we will succeed. OUR club doesn't need spineless supporters and players and the fact you pretend to be a Melbourne person is insulting.

If you want to be ashamed go barrack for someone else. It's not easy and anyone who sticks with the club now truly does have a heart that beats true for the red and blue.

Everything is happening for a reason.

I have no [censored] idea what it is though.

I suspect St Kilda supporters could generate a bigger list than this one without even trying too hard. And Richmond supporters, starting with lack of finals footy. In short, all clubs have dark days. It's how you deal with these things that matter. In my view, MFC has dealt with most of them very well.

I'm not ashamed, my heart beats true.

I've reached rock bottom in regards to the Andrew Football League.

Re MFC? Can't happen.

Stynes passing

-- WTF - the great man died after fighting cancer for almost three years.

Its not negative on the club, its what has happened and what followed has made the club proud.

Here we go another [censored] on here having a dig at another supporter for having an opinion and expressing it. You guys have no right to call yourselves Melbourne supporters and pass judgement on what a true supporter is etc. I clearly don't measure up despite the fact I've been to every game in Vic for 3 years,been a loyal member contributed to debt demolition,fob in a demon etc etc. I have every right to be ashamed and disgusted by this footy club for the list of reasons in the OP. I don't know if you've read the comments by the energy watch CEO but maybe you're too ignorant to do so before attacking someone else. It doesn't matter what we do from here, we signed this Fu...rs company as our MAJOR SPONSOR. The company is a dead set disgrace in many ways and we thought they were good enough to sign and promote. I'm sorry but anyone who doesn't think this is rock bottom is delusional. We as supporters have done enough and can do no more.It's time for this club to stand up and make it happen now if they wish to survive

Tell that to a Fitzroy supporter.

Hi,just joined demonland.

I've just donated $200.00 to the club as a show of support and solidarity.

It's been a tumultuous time lately.

It's still a long road .tunnel up ahead.


And to clarify I'm not just ashamed about the energy watch saga but all those other issues especially the tanking,the on field performance,the lack of senior player leadership and most of all the way our supporters attack one another.

Tell that to a Fitzroy supporter.

I was telling it to a bunch of smug Lions supporters in the MCC last week. I know I wouldnt be smiling if my club folded and i then got to see a bastardised ineterstate version of them a couple of times a year at the G

You are confused, Gotzy.

And I can do more as a supporter when times get tough out of our control, hell I just did this morning.

You have nothing to be ashamed about this morning.

Your club stood up for something more important than $2m - itself.

I agree I would have been ashamed if they hadn't taken the action to dump the sponser.

You forgot the blazer criticism! :-)

And Gotzy15, seriously................you need to pull yourself togther............ashamed of the club????

This club and its supporters have dragged the club up off the canvas, and are setting about building a strong future.

Sure, we are taking a few more hits now, but toughen up, and roll with the punches!

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
