"Don't go to the snow, come see Scully" - Sheedy

Recommended Posts

The MFC should release a statement after a survey of members.

MFC dispels rumours of snow going activities amongst supporters.

After surveying its members , the Melbourne football club has found that less than 15% of its members go to the snow on a regular basis.

Only 29% had been to the snow at all, in any capacity.

This should put an end to anyone associating us with the snow ever again.

We can now point to the survey results of our member base to once and for all dispel the myth.

I have always maintained that skiers are from the same broad cross section of the population as anything else.

I have always seen more Collingwood scarves worn on the slopes than Melbourne. If anything North and Richmond supporters seem the most prevalent of colours. BUT

that said I have also maintained to the club that we should market off OUR reputation and get a sponsorship from snow clothing , snow boots , snow cars etc. Its the perception thats important in marketing.

I was made to go to the snow once with school.

I proceeded to injure myself and get the worst bout of ear infection known to men.

Fair to say that these days I am much more likely to participate in activities better associated with Collingwood supporters (read: drinking, not going to jail!), than skiing.

Unfortunately Sheedy's getting the type of reaction on here that he wants.

I was going to say the same.

I hope Scully puts a hard tag on Moloney, he needs to be run into some form.

I think the club should just leave this one, not bite at all, would hate to see a media conference Sheedy/Scully-Neeld/Trengove talking this meaningless contest up.

Would rather see Sheedy left like a shag on a rock, appearing like the goose he is.

It would be like a paddle pop stick colliding with a sheet of rolled up A4 paper...

"Scully wasn't afforded quite the same understanding, but he keeps in touch with a few Demons, labelling young Melbourne midfielder Sam Blease one of his best mates."

Would be icing on the cake if Blease took him out and said 'I ain't your best mate so stop telling everyone i am'

methinks McKenzie might up his tackle count substantially

think Beemer will be too slow and Sylvia too lazy

HWFUA will probably keep at least 50metres clear of Mitch

Try and put Colin to good use - off the square, don't care if legal...

I dont agree with Eagles fans booing Judd, as he served West Coast well. Scully, on the other hand, should be booed and heckled from the moment he steps onto the MCG.

Junior deserves to be cheered every time he gets the ball - hopefully the crowd show some respect

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
