RIP Melbourne Football Club

What'll hurt a whole lot more is not cutting the cancer out now before it becomes terminal.

All the answers to all of the questions you have is contained in that statement.

No, the answers aren't.

You implore others to not sign up for memberships and not turn up to the game.

Even if that contributes to the board, CEO and coach getting sacked, at what cost?

Surely there are better ways of obtaining that end, without damaging the club further than it needs to be.

The club is already close to being irrevocably damaged. You may not think it is. I do.

That's where our conversation ends Delta.

Yell your support and you are home free.

*Edit ... You just inspired a temporary profile pic change, Delta.

Hope you like it.

There are much better ways to bring on a revolution, that don't cripple the club further in the process.

Whilst I don't agree with your aim, it's your method that I'm really questioning.

And whether it will actually bring about what you claim to want.

RR - you can have your revolution and still support the club financially.

We don't have owners like in the US (thank god).

All we have is a normal administrative setup determined by an elected board of Demons who are there by the grace of God (The Members) and there own willingness to put aside time for the club.

The way I see it:

If you are correct, there'll be a convincing argument.

If you have a convincing argument, promote that and get that out to people.

If it's convincing, the majority should agree with you, and change will happen.

If its not convincing, it's probably because you're not right.

Resorting to telling people not to attend matches, not to buy memberships, and generally doing your best to spread despair through hyperbole, tells me you probably don't have the conviction that people will be convinced by your argument without that.

Pretty pictures though.

No arguments from me. I'm finished with the weak bastards.

You know it's a lie BBO. For starters, they'll tease you with a better performance against the w eagles...say, a 110 point loss.

Yep, it's the supporters' fault.

'I believe in neeld'

You tried endlessly to gai support in an effort to derail common sense. There were only a few of us that understood that we were being sold fools gold. Rangerover, you must accept some responsibility the position we are in because of the energy you gave the movement. If only the followers decided in majority to vote "no" to neeld, maybe we could have got rid of him in round 8 last year.

Rr, you have a short memory, and your reputation is shot.

Entitled to your opinion Delta.

Nice to have a forum where we can all express our views.

This club is a disgrace. It is bruise free football.

Last week I was disappointed with the showing against Port. Today I am, like another poster wrote, ashamed.

I vowed to stick through all this at the end of round 1, however, after tonight, I will be posting my membership & my sons membership back to the club & my son can pick his own team to follow when he feels like it.

I will always be a Demon, but I will not let my 3yo go through what all of us go through ever season.

RIP Melbourne Football Club

A parent has so much influence.

Persist with your kids as ugly as the club might get.

The future depends on it.

Range Rover is to blame for Neeld not being fired at the end of last year?

You certainly like to talk in absolutes. I blame RR for the current tensions in Korea as well.

I'm a militant on this thing Rpfc. What else can I say.

Do you really believe we can sustain 20 more weeks of this?

All human endeavour is basically killing time.

And the bonus is that by supporting the mighty Dees that time seems a hell of a lot longer.

What do you think will happen if there is another 3 or 4 months of this?

The AFL will take away our licence?

A caretaker will be installed, a challenge will be made to the board in September (this things take a while to organise), and new leadership will be brought in then.

If we spill it all now we will have a Acting President who isn't ready for it, a CEO from inside the club who isn't up to it, and four months of a caretaker coach - which is a lifetime.

You think we will be considered a joke if we continue like we have, I am telling you that the joke will be confirmed if we spill everyone right now.

Instability and disunity midseason with costly firings.

That isn't funny.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    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
