Apologies

Don't worry about it, we all knew you would be back.

Welcome back - we need to stick together now, if we are to ever improve

My family are essendon supporters. Wait, make that barrackers. They are never members but do [censored] like pay for pictures holding Premiership cups without any sense of irony.

Jonesbag Im tipping youre a member. Thats real support.

Think about what it's like to hear of Richmond supporters in the past tearing up their memberships, or more recently microwaving them.

I always thought the concept was laughable.

I'm not laughing now, but it brings some perspective.

Both to how they felt abou their club at the time, and to how overdramatic we are being about our current situation.

I love it.

You have me beaming.

We WILL get out of this.

This is REAL committment.

It'll be painful and longer than we'd like, but we'll get there.

And it'll be worth it.

A lot of supporters would be jumping off us after last night.

It's embarrassing to even say you support Melbourne now.

After the tanking saga and now this, I can only imagine how the players feel.

I can see our membership dropping sharply.

With the franchise sides coming in, it's easy for people to just jump [censored].

But, have faith, we have Viney, Hogan, Kent, Howe, Blease and a few good kids hopefully coming next year.

It can all change pretty easily, we just need the right board, coach to get the boys going.

I do understand people jumping off while Neeld is in charge though, but do get back on board when we get a decent coach.

Would be a shame to lose passionate supporters, we are all hurting and frustrated atm and embarrassed.

I'm angry enough to punch holes in walls during and after the game, but I'm actually proud to be a Melbourne supporter right now.

It hurts, and I hate it, but I'm tough enough to take it.

I'm not taking the easy way out.

My mates give me hell, but I'm copping it on the chin.

Our team is crap. So what?

I'm not some weak little princess that only supports their team when they're doing well.

I'M OUT TOO!!

OUT on the [censored] that is...drowning my sorrows after 7 nights of night shift and last nights debacle but...

I'll always stick by the Melbourne Football Club through thick and thin. 36 years of unfulfilled hope, 4 family memberships, constant flack from mates and plenty of disappointment...

Hurts like hell right now but one day the tide has to turn. I don't know what the answer is right now for the club but the answer for me right now is the amber ale!

Carn the DEE'S!!

Im going to rub in everyones face when we finally win

Might be a long time between drinks but as long as they are beers its all good!

Im with ya mate.

I am a very passionate Aussie Rules suppoter and I'm over going for a useless club which I was talked into going for as a kid.

From what I have heard from older suppoters, apart from the stint with Neil Danaher where we were up and down for 7 years and we were lucky to get into the 2000 grand final, we have been crap since the 60's

Nothing will change in the next 40 years.

I don't go for any club anymore.

I'm out.

Just be glad you don't support the saints or bulldogs.

Just saw this thread now.

Very up and down over the last two days jb.

Good to keep you around.

It's an easier road when misery has company.

'Attention seeking drama queen' status acknowledged.

Harden up Lucy.

He realised his error.

No need to clip him over the ears.

TBH, I am sure his Ess supporting mates would call him weak if he did renounce.

Edit: I meant 'he' realised his error, not 'I'. Sounded more arrogant than usual...

Well worthy of a clipping over the ears if posted in a public forum.

I copped plenty of filthy texts from Bummers supporters and some really got at me, didn't post about it on here though (until now I suppose).

Moral of the story? Move on, harden up.

Being a Melbourne supporter is just a lose - lose scenario hey? No way out.

When we start winning it will be a win-win scenario.

Because we won...

When I was a young lad I went for the bombers, then one day my dad took me to the side and let me know that that I am related to the Cordner family and David is my cousin and pointed him out while he was playing when we were on Easter holidays I was about 10 years old. Since then I have switched to Melbourne. And to be honest I don't regret it one bit and not even 1% of me has ever felt like switching back.

All I got to say to people who make stupid threads like this is.. don't let the door hit you on the way out :)

My wife is an Essondon supportor and last year we had a bet who ever wins out of Melb and Ess has to take the other out to dinner well u guessed it I made her take to the most expensive restaraunt i could find.

IT'S ONLY A GAME :)

PEACE

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
