I will die a demon!

Regardless of how many games I can get to I will always support them via my membership.

What might be conditional for me is my support for Aussie Rules footy itself. Its all the rubbish that comes from the MRP, the control freak mentality of the AFL and the moronic media that is doing my head in.

But I will die a demon.

Apparently last night Channel 7 news said collingwood wanted pick 4 for Dawes and Wellingham?

If we do this I will have to rethink my unconditional position quoted above. They are discards for goodness sake! Could help list so would be ok with them coming to MFC but Pick 4: never, never, never!!! With inflated incomes: never, never, never!

Pick 4 should be moved ONLY for an elite player or a MD pick. Anything else and I will seriously question the direction we are heading.

If this trade did happen, i think it would be a short sighted move BUT perhaps Neeld is only interested in the next 2-3 years. He's trying to build a team that can compete, and Dawes and Wellingham would help us do that next year

Still, I hope its a rumour!

It better be a rumour. I'd rather wait a few years and build a side that will compete for premierships than have a quick-fix that will see us MAYBE scrape into the eight only to have our @sses kicked in an elimination final.

If the Suns bid on Viney, or Gws for that matter, and Melbourne let him slide I'm through with this club.

I don't believe they'd be that stupid, so I consider the status quo will remain, but I'll be true to my word.

Now we know one of your tipping points.

They won't BH.

Yes, my MFC support and purchase of membership is conditional, but ive found in the past 3-4 years. I have found a great appreciation for a couple of other clubs, other than melbourne. A Second and third club, if you will. I mean, its hard not to.

But yes, my primary support for this club is unconditional.

Are you sure you're not a closet Hawk OD?

They lost by the way. :)

After the Dees P_man I admire the Hawks.

I have said elsewhere on a couple of threads that they represent everything that the MFC do not.

Succesfull for decades, win flags, tough, take no prisoners, Hated by all other supporters, plenty of money in the bank and play finals almost every year.

Whats not to admire?

Oh crappy colours but you cannot win them all.

I just cannot believe the stupidity of this club, but more worryingly I'm border-line not caring anymore.

To watch on and see what was happening at Essendon and to not immediately contact the AFL and say that we have been dealing with this bloke Dank is extraordinary. It's not a matter of whether there was a breach of WADA regulations, it's a matter of integrity and transparency. It's about a duty of care to the players and openness with those players parents. The oily approach of this club and the treatment of its supporters beggars belief.

I'll watch this latest disaster with interest. I expect the club to take the appropriate steps with those concerned in this cover up. Some officials should resign in embarrassment before the day is out. My on-going support will be fully dependent on how they handle this final (hopefully) mess.

Welcome back!

You used your postcode post reacting to a non issue.

Everyone's missed you.

We were worried sick.

Could not agree more 'Ben'.

I think one of the main players is already gone, but more need to come forward or be pushed. The sooner Jackson starts at the club the better, May 1 cannot come to quickly.

Mine is. I'll be there on Sunday and for every match this season. This inept Board and coach are not our club and are merely passing players who will soon be gone.

One day we might learn, but if we don't so what, I'll still support.

I'd like to believe i could stop caring but i cant. My current state of disapointment is proof!

I care about the MFC, so much so that the latest news and heavy losses effect my mood generally.

Unconditional

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
