The "Melbourne" Chant at the end of the game.

[13thFlagIsComing 542]

It was also fantastic after the siren when, as the players congregated to walk off the ground, much of the MCC gravitated towards the player race to clap and cheer and show our support.

I have always believed that 30,000 Melbourne supporters are just as passionate and equally as loud as 60,000 of most other club's. We just haven't had much chance to show it of late.

Best example i can think of off the top of my head is the 2008 comeback against Freo. 15,000 at the ground (i was one of them) sounded like 70,000 when we hit the front. Getting goosebumps thinking about that game now!

I remember this game as well. Could hardly speak for 3 days after, my throat was that raw.

Some of the older ones amongst us might be able to confirm but I thought I'd read the chant also used to get used during the Smith years in the 50's/60's?

The only difference Dr. Was we were so F***ing great we did it all day.

I was very close to leaving at half-time. I've never left that early. Thought I'd stick around to see how they'd go. The first half was pitiful. Two minutes into the second half, you could tell it was a different team.

This game is the reason why I NEVER leave games early, even if we're 100 points down. You just never know what can happen, win or not, there's always (most of the time) something to get out of a match.

For those that haven't seen this...watch it...and you'll have goosebumps by the end of it. No matter how many times you watch it. Should play this on the big screen before our Round 16 home game.

Think it's worth noting Freo have been doing that chant for longer than anyone.

The slow Melbourne chant was good, but I would have preferred a Yes! Chant (wonder if anyone will get that).

A side note - I may have also told the daughter that I would cancel her MCC waiting list application and I would never take her to the football again - harsh but necessary.

Have done the same....

I remember the 'Melbourne' chant during the 94 finals series - when we beat Carlton and Footscray.

Haha my brother and I were doing the Yes! chant after the match. Wasn't quite the same as in New Orleans though.
