I'm sorry. That definition fits the Collingwood cheer squad. Doesn't sound at all desirable.

Pies had over 73000 members last year. As much as we all hate them, we are all rather jealous of their massive supporter base.

15000 3 game memberships, 4209 pet memberships.......

The money helps the club regardless but hardly an accurate figure.

Nude goal umpires for home games.

In the words of the great impaler,"leave it up to the fans"

female?

of course not hemlock, that would be for away games............all part of the (ahem) afl equalisation and integrity rules

The atmosphere at the darts is incredible. If we can replicate that, then we are onto a winner. Not sure an announcer yelling "six" has the same ring to it than "one hundred and eigghhhttyy" But the dressing up of the fans could be done. I know we say in jest that more alcohol is probably not a good idea. But could you imagine if we had a big section of the crowd that dressed up, drank beer, sang and acted like yobo's. I think it's a winner.

ahh, the good Ol' seventies, (70's).... fun fun fun... www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqphxn5_zkY

14 wins on the trot would make the club better and the MCG would be bulging

It's all about winning. The Clown School has been removed

It is in the players hands now.

TGO I tried last season, the Suns game at the G likely to be pretty boring so myself and some mates thought we would introduce the Darts game day experience. I had dressed in a long sleeved tropical shirt, floral shorts with black skins underneath to combat the cold. All this was touched off with the Demon scarf and hat, pure class, I thought. However on trying to enter the G I had my white plastic chair and plastic table confiscated by security. What do you do? I was livid but then trying to have drinking games with low strength beer in small plastic cups....why bother! Stuffed the whole day up for me and the boys. Oh and we lost the game as usual!

I love wacky ideas to make us better. So as long as you're not Steven Dank (or Cam Schwab) feel free to join in and get some going.

1. Artificial crowd noise at training

For skills drills and particularly goal kicking we should turn up the noise with some artificial crowd noise to replicate game day

2. Music at training:

On a similar line to point 1. But for running drills we should have some tunes going. Our players are pro's now, they'll train hard regardless. So lets let them have a bit of fun out there

3. Tinder swipe right night

Atlanta Hawks got it started. Dees can keep it going. Will just need to sort the filter to only include those in the MCC and of course improve the MCG's phone coverage or even better get it decked out with decent WiFi.

4. Fitz-sub-trick

Take a chance that you'll get through the best part of 3/4's without an injury and make Fitzy the sub. Then sub a ruck and have a fresh player around the ground in the ruck for parts of quarters, as well as a super quick half forward coming in when the game has opened up. Could also try it with Pedersen but would need a different name. Pedo trick sounds nasty

5. Uncontested centre bounces

Practise this. Save it. Fake a dodgy interchange and feign panic in the ruck. Then have Vince, Jones etc in the ruck. Use it wisely:

bring back the bif,,, Ray Biffen & freinds,

Great goal.

But who's the muppet commentator that says: "I don't think Paul Roos realised just how good Bernie Vince was when he picked him up." ?

Yeh right...

For various reasons other than the obvious under performing we have a [censored] image within the competition. One of my biggest banes has been the the wimpy demon mascot. No matter how many times it has been changed it is still portrayed as ineffectual and benign as we perform. The logic is that it may offend people being associated with an overly dark aggressive Satan. As far as I am concerned I don't care if we offend wowsers and owl eyed evangelical types. I like to see a bad arsed and rebellious image, and hopefully it will reflect on the way we will play. I think we will gain more than we lose if as in wrestling speak we turn "heel".

Carnivorous fuchsia, a la "Little Shop of Horrors"??

It's all about winning regular premierships, all the big clubs won premierships regularly over the last 35 years, hawthorn, Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood even though Collingwood have not won as regularly but they have played many GF, lower supported club's, st kilder, bulldogs, only one premierships so it is a slow process, win 4 or 5 premierships over the next 15 20 years, then we will be a big club, hawthorn have lots of members from the kids who all started following hawthorn from the 80's, it took 15 20 years after that before they become members in large numbers, the 2008 premiership awoke lots of those supporter to become members.

The darts only had mid strength beer in plastic cups. In fact, charging $30 for 4 was probably the reason the riots started.

Jealous of the quantity but not the quality.

Good point Great One I can well understand their reason. Really pisses me off when I go to Etiard an there is no explaination from management that only mid strength is available

ok cool, let's take all of these ideas and post them to 8 years ago.

I think the club should 'invest' $10,000 in theme flags for the Geelong game. They can be handed out at the gate.

On one side is the demon logo and on the other a huge bum with a picture of Mitch Clark where the hole should be.

Where's DA when you need him for the visual?

Of course I've moved on.

Are you serious? You can buy memberships for pets?

WTF do they get?

Is that Chelsea?

Yes.

Don't know about the pets, but the Collingwood Football Club gets a higher average IQ out of the deal.

My friend always says most Collingwood supporters are dogs. Maybe he is right.

On the back of Glen Bartlett's suggestion that we should be aiming to become the 'Yankees' of Aussie Rules, I think the club should be offering half price tickets for our Home games to International Tourists. Team up the promotion with China Southern airlines and a few of our other partners to help market the offer, maybe The Duke Hotel etc where exposure to tourists is pretty high and I think we'd be getting a few more people to the ground each week and also creating a real name for ourselves.

Package up meal/couple of pots/tickets and hat or scarf so they feel the part.

List MFC as a public company on the ASX.

Dudleys raffle could be used to sell shares instead of chook raffle tickets.

That would help our cause of moving to Collins St
