Has anyone else heard the advertisement on SEN for a parking outfit at Melbourne Airport that starts off with a bloke whistling "It's a grand old flag" and then saying he went to Perth and saw his team get flogged but because he was so happy with the car parking services, he was thinking of changing clubs.

Don't these [redacted]s know that they are p[redacted]ing off fans from their own state. I for one will never avail myself of their [redacted] services and I recommend that nobody else does unless they remove the advertisement and apologise to the Melbourne Football Club for their offensive (and misleading because we're a different team now) advertising campaign.

Have heard it and agree.

The service is garbage and over priced anyway, but yes 'Jack' the add hasn't gone unnoticed.

The best way to fix this crew is to lobby for the airport train and then we might not have to put up with the extortion that is even worse than food and drink prices at the footy.

I travel a lot and use off airport parking (Jetport - fabulous service). I thought I may have been a little precious because I heard the ad, got annoyed and made a mental note never to try their service. Apparently I am not alone. It was really unnecessary.

I suggest you all take a deep breath.

I think it is funny.

lighten up guys

You can dump on my (ex) wives

You can even dump on my children.

But DON'T dump on my footy team.

The company doing the ad is Melbourne Airport Parking.

Before this shizen campaign they were responsible for the 'raelene and robbo, cheap flight from tulla to dubbo' ads.

The only ads I've heard on SEN that annoy me more were the 'shhh don't tell anyone, turn your radio down' ads for St Kilda Road towers...

I haven't heard that add but it sounds like the person lining their pockets with their car parking business must be an Essendon or Collingwood supporter.

While I shouldn't feel too precious over this add, BUT, I bloody well do I"m afraid!!! I'm too sensitive by half I'd say, over the Melbourne Football Club

Its all about stereotypes and reinforcing them and it infuriates me, they can count me out of parking the car there, but i suppose i don't count , but if the Dees fans , thousands of em elected not to park there, that would be marvellous !!

I would find it amusing if it was any other team but mine…. As I say, I'm a touch sensitive !!!

I'm with you - it is all about stereotypes and reinforcing them and it angers me no end and...wait...I'll finish this post later - I gotta get my skis out of my range rover without ruining the leather sleeve patches on my tweed jacket ( go the number 6).

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
