Carlton - MCG new tenant?

Featured Replies

Just read in the HUN that the Blues want to muscle in on MCG is there enough room for 5 clubs thoughts?

 

They've already got us there in their home game.

In fact the only two decent home games we have from a crowd perspective are Pies and Hawks.

 

Could also be designed to drive a better deal out of Etihad and is good timing as noted by DC above!

There is no room for them at the G unless other clubs move games from there.

Frankly i am more worried that the Demons are still forced to play a home game at Etihad. If Carlton come to the "G" they should be offered our Sunday twilight timespot and reprogram us for Friday nights and Saturday games like we used to enjy. After all, we started life as the MCCFC!

I would be happy to see Collingwood and Hawthorn move and be replaced by the Doggies and Kangaroos! That would make for a more equitable competition!

Sad part is CBD that even playing a Sunday twighlight game, Carlton would still get 50,000+ there.

Because most of their members don't have work or school on a Monday morning.

The part that annoyed me was that they listed the 'tenant clubs' in the article in the following order:

Collingwood, Melbourne, Hawthorn and Richmond.

It is our home ground only .... The rest are co-tenants horning in on our awesome MCG.

As far as I know we were there first. Everyone else is a freeloader who should be paying us for the privilege.

We can then sling the MCC a few dollars for their trouble.

Cracking line.. Carlton supporters are all oxygen thieves, almost as bad as the dog starving Collingwood filth....


BLUES WANT THE G

well lets go,, off to 'Docklands' then....

if they want us off the 'G', we'll show them! We can take over the TelstraDome!

practice near the 'Wheel', & share with the Bulldogs.

Hell, we may even merge with the Roos, while we're down there.

I've got an original Idea!

How about the Blues & Roos merge & hop about the Docklands... they could be the BlueRoos. all they need is a stripe or 2. & replace the whiteant on the jumper with a Roo image.

Geographically close.

They could take shares in one another...

Of course we were there first! We invented the blxxdy game! We were the Melbourne Cricket Club Football Club when we started life as I suspect that most of our first players were also MCC cricketers keeping fit during the winter. Personally, I would be happy to see the Pies go back to Victoria Park, Hawthorn to Glenferrie Oval and Richmond to Punt Road. An alternative would be for Richmond to go to the Kevin Bartlett Oval (which is in the city of Richmond) and let us use their ground as our training ground and home base, after all it is located in the City of Melbourne. Grassroots footy is what we should be encouraging!

Geezs....I never want to go back to Vic Park or Glenferrie......Stand all afternoon on beer cans.....Spat at by opposition supporters....I am now of an age where I want to sit in comfort.....

i would stand barefoot on broken glass just to watch us whip the Pies.

The blues want the G?

Well good for them!

So what?

I really don't think it's as easy as all that.

Are some here feeling threatened..?

 

it's just posturing to get a better deal from Deathlands stadium

nothing to see here

That and to boost their membership. I think I heard that they told their supporters they will play home games to the 'G' if they get 50,000 members. We should get Mitch Clarke to come out and say his foot won't heal unless we get 40,000 members, it would have similar credibility.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
