That stunt might have worked back in the two win days, but since we'll be winning 25 this year I'm not so sure.

    BBO you got to send the first dollar you earned one day.

    So it may as well be today.

    Revival of the former 'Demon Incentive Plan (circa 1980s). I'll be in again!

    I think the players should have been paying us last year to all the fans who turned up week after week.

    I get what the club is doing but maybe the players could kick in they are the ones on the big bucks. Not all of us members are on big bucks.

    I don't think you quite understand the system. We pay the players. They don't pay us.

    Yeah I get the system im just saying last year we should have been paid for showing up. Us, the long suffering fans who had to sit through that crap.

    I know we need money but im just pointing out that not everyone is on big bucks.

    But hopefully that people who are donating donate a good amount because then it means we have had a few wins.

    By the way Id be giving PJ a pay rise after what he has been able to get done in the past few months.

    Would have to run that by PJ first - I don't think he would allow it!

    He has his eyes set on "being in the black".

    I'm paying enough for a membership! Besides, I don't want to be in the position where I'm hoping we lose so I don't have to cough up more dough!

    If only we had to pay the players if they win.

    I would have expected a few more wins over the past 7 years.

    There's an old saying "never bet beyond your means" so if you do pledge anything all you have to do is work out the maximum you are prepared or can afford to pay and leave it at that.

    $20 a win x 5 wins = $100

    Looks ok to me!

    Now If I can just work out the five games I can double up with the bookies and cover my outlay.

    Dees win and I end square.

    And is there anyone who thinks 5 wins for the MFC in 2014 is acceptable? That's roughly 10 wins in 3 seasons. 5 wins only and MFC loose 2 members in me and my wife.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
