Lets get a big crowd to the MCG next Saturday night vs Bulldogs

Recommended Posts

No excuses.

We have a new coach, and one that doesnt accept 6 goal losses let alone 15 goal ones.

Peter Jackson is here now and he is getting the place in shape.

Whether you hated Neeld, Schwab, McLardy or anyone else it doesn't matter anymore. Thats ancient history.

The club has been bleeding financially and a lot of that is thanks to small crowds.

This week is a home game under lights at the G, 7.40 Saturday.

The boys are coming off a good showing where the result would have been only a few goals if not for cheap free kicks in front of goals to St Kilda.

Neil Craig had us playing a proper brand of footy, and for once we matched the opposition in disposals.

Jimmy Toumpas was very good and will just get better. Mitch Clisby was a revelation. Jack Watts is on the verge of a monster game. Could it be this week?

We Melbourne supporters must get to the MCG in droves to show Neil Craig, the players and the AFL that we mean business and we are ready to watch this club rise again.

This is a 50/50 game and the extra support will help the players, help the spirit of the club and help financially.

GET TO THE G THIS SATURDAY NIGHT AND OUTNUMBER THE DOGS SUPPORTERS 2-1!!! GO DEMONS!!!!!!

Don't mean to be a negative nancy but its the night of the Wallabies and British Lions tour at Etihad... but I'm sure the AFL didn't realise that when they were sorting out the fixtures - like how they forgot to give us a Friday night game.

I mean its a pretty spontaneous event, only once in every 12 years, and not really a big deal, just a sell out crowd of 55,000

Ah, that's unfortunate. Will definitely have an impact on the crowd at our game, I'm sure.

We're safe on that front. As if Melbourne supporters would go to Etihad.

Mrs Frankie will be accompanying me, Frankie Junior and the two daughters - one of whom, I regret to say, goes for the Doggies. I can only put his down to a cosmic ray phenomenon - no family influences, nothing. Just decided she liked them when she was about 5, and stuck. All of us will be there for the women's game first.

I will be there......

As this seems like our most likely chance of a victory in Melbourne, perhaps the shock late inclusions of Clark, Grimes and Viney are necessary. We could drop them into the ground with a helicopter an hour before the bounce..... Clark wearing a sumo suit to prevent any further injuries, Grimes in a giant inflatable bubble and Viney sporting tissue boxes for footy boots.

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
