Did anyone see the GWS rent - a - crowd behind the goals and the Ponsford end? If these guys weren't street performers paid to come and support the Giants I'll go HEY !!! Pretty pathetic when you have to pay people to dress up as monks and dance around under the false pretence of genuine support.

Pathetic plastic club with rent-a-crowd support. The AFL should be embarressed,

I agree,are they all Hari Krishna types in Western Sydney? or Monks? or just plain freaks...?

What a load of BS...clearly they are not genuine supporters...when you are getting smashed it doesnt matter what team you are...generally as a rule you would sit down & shut up because

A: your crap

B:you cant stand watching crap

C: Losing supporters dont want attention or they will get more unwanted attention from hecklers!

Yes GWS,we see through your bs image. Plastic is a great description.

To be fair the AFL gave tickets to anyone that wanted them for this game. Didn't you get the email offer?

No, forward it please. I'd be interested to know why the AFL give away what I pay for?

I like how it's ok to dress up as a Buddhist and make a [censored] of yourself. Next time show up in blackface and see what happens.

On a slightly related topic, did anyone notice Melbourne fans getting a pay in the Age match review for the second game in a row.

Last time it was for cheering the injury to slimy Didak (if we're not too soft, we're too hard apparently). This time it was for "staying away" on "a nice winter's Sunday".

Thanks, Martin Blake -- whoever you are. Forecast all week was for showers and 13, it's 16th v 17th and the visiting team has NO supporters whatsoever, we're playing in the second-worst timeslot known to man with the match finishing in darkness on a school night, it's live on free-to-air TV ... I was gobsmacked that we pulled 20,000.

On the opposite page there's a report on North v Adelaide. North still in finals contention, Adelaide playing for top spot, significant travelling support, game played indoors ... crowd: 18,866. Oddly, no mention of North fans staying away.

I can always use that image of the monks to remind myself in the future that my team may be getting flogged, but at least I don't look like that.

I don't really 'get' the joke either.

I mean, is the joke that buddhists and/or hare krishna's wear orange?

That's not a joke people. A colour is not a joke.

Comedy is tough, but it's like learning a language - if you don't know what the hell you are doing, you will make a fool of yourself. Leave it to the experts.

I thought they had turned up expecting a one-day cricket match... surprised none of them had a half a watermelon stuck on their head.

They did, but Phil Scully ate them.

...and the watermelon.

Edit: 2nd punchline for that extra bit of comedy in your day.

Nah, I'm pretty sure watermelon would be safe around Phil... he looks like a strictly meat and potatoes guy to me.

so by your logic we should have spent the last 5 years staying home with the curtains drawn waiting until we started winning games? funny, sounds to me to describe the polar opposite of a supporter

comedy costumes and banner bearers of verified appeal but dubious authenticity aside, good on 'em for getting showing a bit of resolve

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
