Pledge per Win


Sir Why You Little

Recommended Posts

Just listened to Robbo's blurb. How can paying out cash be "fun and exciting"?

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

So it may as well be today.

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".

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

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

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!

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.

    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

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
