...the MFC version of Tony Shaw's marathon running career

Not too dissimilar from his coaching career.

    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.

    Well played Sheeds you crafty old coot.

    re booing Junior, I'd like to think none of our supporters are that stupid.

    Scully however, his first touch will be very interesting.

  • Quote

    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.

    "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

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
