Any houses for sale in Jolimont Terrace?

The East Melbourne Group encourages the offices to revert to houses. I am sure that converting a terrace into a licensed Clubhouse would go down like a lead balloon. Didn't the MFC once own/rent one there?

Yes and sold because of the planning problems

I agree we need somewhere to call home socially.

There is a great pub in the city that we could use as a club and the owners are Melbourne supporters, hey the are even a bronze partner on our sponsors page on the website.

http://wharfhotel.com.au/

The Wharf Hotel sits on the Yarra River opposite the Exhibition Centre just down from crown.

Imagine having a Demon Boat Shuttle Service along the Yarra from the Wharf Hotel to the MCG and back again on game day. On the wharf hotel web page they even offer discounts to MFC members, with a bit of work between the club and the owners I am sure it could be turned into a great location to watch interstate games and a good spot for a beer before and after another Demon victory!

Whilst not located close to the MCG or AAMI park it certainly is more appealing than the Bentleigh Club.

I was in there a few months ago having a beer and they even have Demon pictures up on the walls.

Just a thought!

This looks like a great alternative

Thanks for letting us know it

What is the potential for parking? As we drive and park currently a tram ride in to the g would not be as inclusive as a ferry filled with d supporters

Does Barrass still own The Mountain view on bridge Rd?

I do agree we need a social club. I've been to the Bentleigh Club a couple times and IMO It's a run down pile of crap. You may as well just rock around to my place and watch the footy out on the deck while I cook the barbie & serve up some cold cans it would be a much better experience.

I accept - what should I bring?

Nice Idea Matt, If we have a Members Hub, we could have a Cuban Beach party in April...at a venue near Richmond. Outdoors on the Deck,,, April Sun Beach Party with Barbie cooking, watching a Lazy Sat/Sunday arvo/evening Matinee' game against the Suns, start at around 4.00PM...

All things are possible...

There's that nice big bluestone catholic church near parliament.

Should get it cheap if we wait till end of next year

Yeah and they might even leave some dressup gear around. Surplus surplices as it were. Wrong colour I suppose but there are party possibilities.

As long as we keep some sort of discipline.

I put you in charge of that .

The catholic Church can use the Peel or the Laird .

If we rent something around Stewert St, or Swan St, 'Bensons was good',,, Until we build something near AAMI & Gosch's Paddock, we could utilise it for offices & Social Hub & sell memberships & Paraphernalia.

Have a Winter/Summer social base/cafe.

Watch games, wander down watch away tests with friends, to catch up before or after games meeting point, training days... team announcements after work,

IMO Swan St is under developed.. It has some cool.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. BTW my wife goes to The Corner to listen to bands that nobody else has heard of.

Bit like barracking for the Demons .

Look forward to meeting you there one day Father BBO.

I would have thought a bloke who wears his underpants on the outside would be at least a bit tragic.

I think biffo knows the tragedy i refer to. And at least i wear them.

I'll let you in on a secret too. Not only do I wear them on the outside but I have a backup pair on the inside. Keep that to yourself though

I might have to give Demonland away - there are too many wierd types.

you mean all that Greek tragedy gear. I would hope they take it with them

As performers you would hope they know enough to pack the costumes.

The show rolls on.

The tragedy is timeless.

But the show must go on .

Bless you my son. In the meantime go and indulge in a bit of mortification of the flesh to make up for your many and varied offensive comments.

We may have to put you in charge of the Hell Hole... Bbo's Dungeon of Deespair, with fire twirlers fire eaters & fire breathers, Deeviant Angels & the King Masochist. http://soundbible.com/713-Laugh-Evil.html :blink:

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
