Can't wait, first training session ever and bringing the kids. Glad the club moved the start time to 12, it would have been too hard to get the kids to the normal 9:00.

    According to twitter

    At 9am: we were having an open training at 12

    At 10am: we are having an open training at 1pm with a bbq and coffee from 12

    Do I demand too much suggesting no changes on the day of a members event???

    At 11am: we will be having open training at 2pm with stale donuts and coffee at 1pm.

    At 12pm: we will be having a closed training session at 9am with free pickings from the dumpster at AAMI Park.

    At 1pm: the training session will be cancelled and any supporter attempting to gain access will be jabbed with a sharp stick.

    I just got here, players aren't out yet but there's a good crowd (and a big line for the snags!).

    Fantastic turnout already

    Poor Howie is getting chased by a group of six-year-olds as he's running laps. Paying the price for being the first to show up

    Training was actually moved to 1pm. Only tweeted through Demon Army about 11am. Not a good thing to do from the club, I know the training/conditioning etc of the players should no 1 priority but when you advertise for a family training day it's not a good look to change things like this at the last minute.

    Anyway, that's my labour day winge.

    We clearly have a lot of work to do in this area. Surely it can't be that hard.

    Still no team. Can't even make the delayed start time! I have watched an hour of the Vince and Howe show so far.

  • Quote

    Still only Howe and Vince here.

    I can understand why some people would be frustrated - it shouldn't be too hard to advertise a time and stick to it without a late change and further delays. Hopefully players start showing up soon, or more people will start to leave.

    It's not a whinge at all.

    It's pathetic by the club, people have kids to organize and places to be & not everyone can check social media 100% of the time for updates, especially when the updated comes through 1 hour before the advertised time.

    Lots of family's have already left without seeing a player.

    Hooray we have player sightings!

    Sitting here waiting for the team to turn up, can't help but think that this club really does treat it's supporters with a degree of contempt. Waiting for well over an hour now.

  • Quote

    I've given up, my highlights: seeing the kids running along side Howe and the 2 snags I had.

    Can't even get on the track for a revised start time. Nice big waste of time.

  • Quote

    By all accounts here a shocking treatment of supporters once again from the MFC. Glad I didn't rush down in my lunch break for a half hour.

    Shocking effort by the club.

    While the club will say it has improved off field this is by far the biggest downfall in the way it interacts with its supporter base.

    First the intra club and now this. Not good enough from a professional organization.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
