The Viney decision will;drop the crowd by about 5-8k

People are legitimately disillusioned with the game

Lets hope the appeal is successful

 

I have a number of very tasteful pink ensembles to choose from - some difficult decisions coming up.

you could just go buff, that should be pink enough

oh wait......just thought of a problem, pink and purple would ruin it

Actually. If he doesn't get off, there are at least 4 here that aren't going......

This might be the biggest crowd we play in front of for a while, in terms of non-final or non-public holiday.

Every man and his dog are going.

The only game on in town this weekend.

50-60?

This should be the one game whereby a 50:50 decision to TV it or go; should be pushed to the latter.

MFC youngsters, unlike Collingwood, Hawthorn, Geelong, Richmond etc..., don't get to play in front of finals-density crowds. We owe em a taste.


As a guide:

In round 7 2010 for the same event/game, we got 45,000 so 50K isn't totally out of the question.

I'd say mid 30's should be a conservative estimation.

Last year we only got about 22,000 in round 14.

I expect a really good turnout especially now with jack let off. We are coming off a great win, we can beat the bulldogs, its for a great cause and its our home game. Lets cheer loudly for them and especially Jack.

Well, I made a snap decision yesterday to spend $300 and fly down after footy to watch the Dees play.

I was angry about the decision and I directed towards my savings...

Now I am not angry but I will still be there.

Going to be a good night of football after the BCNA event - I hope we can show something on the Saturday night stage.

 

Well just like most around here I'm jumping back on the bandwagon. Puke when I think of the Neeld days. Roos will continue to bring the very best out of the group. Hopefully gone are the days G. Lyon/C Connolly/Healy types have any influence within the decision making processes.

We also lost the match.

Not because of him IMO

It was the umpires dressed in Pink that looked identical to MFC players

I can still see Bartram kicking it to the umpire in the last quarter

Gee, I hope we haven't got our hopes up too much. I'd be surprised (pleasantly, of course) if the crowd reaches 30,000. Being the only game in Melbourne over the weekend is an irrelevancy (OK, it might pick up a few hundred) and the Bulldogs have a very small supporter base.

I commend the two clubs on the Pink Lady initiative and hope that it swells the crowd. But while I'm optimistic in most things (I expect a win tomorrow), I'm not so optimistic to expect more than 30,000 at the ground tomorrow night.


mmm im gonna go with a crowd of 53000 minus me , stuck in the bush but hope to get to the tiggers game , oh and us by 23 points :)

And the night that person we do not speak of racked up 18 posessions in the last quarter?

hasn't gone close to doing it since

Hate to be the party pooper but

1) The Dogs were a top 4 team they won't pull as many supporters

2) at least 10k would've been part of the "Field of Women" and left before the match even stared. No doubt the weather would've played a part, and we will have them again this week but the "crowd" of 45k was probably realistically 35k for the actual match. Still goes to our coffers though so ill take it.

I was going to go but what's this field of sheilas stuff? It's still a blokes game isn't it?. Besides how can I win fashions on the field against sheilas? It's not fair. Especially if Demonland is the judge. Think I'll watch it with the lads.


I'll be there with my pink-accented outfit. Thinking the crowd will be somewhere between 33 000 & 45 000, dependent on the weather.

so you going now?

Do it Bitty. You'll pull and extra 20,000 to the game if you front in your finest pink ensemble.

 

Just read Moonshadow's post. Some advice for you Bitter...definitely go with the pink feather boa.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
