Someone at the MCC still likes the Dees.

Rode passed the 'G tonight and happened to snap this pic. Thought it would be nice for all 'Landers to enjoy the moment in a week that's been good for football (i.e. when the Dees win). Hope the trimmed down resolution still looks OK.

    Giles. Looking at your avatar I am sure I have seen you working as a hipster, barista in a cafe down in Abbotsford. Is that why you were riding passed the Gee? Amazing how hairstyles and facial hair from the 80's has reappeared.

    The only colors that our ground should ever be draped in!

    It's our home. The others are only tenants.

    That's sweet as.It might inspire BBO to install a similar lightshow out at the Romsey manor if he hasn't done so already.

    Gilles do you have one of those hipster bikes? You know plenty of chrome, no gears, no bracks, no gears, no accessories just minimalism two wheels and a frame.

    Red and Blue are also the MCC's colours (with some white)

    When I started following the Dees they were officially the "Melbourne Cricket Club Football Club" (one of the MCC sporting sections along with lawn bowls, lacrosse, etc)!

    Boys and girls that will be the colours displayed at the G when we play Sydney on the Saturday night, for some reason it doesn't work so well in daylight, part of the matchday experience

    They still are!

    Are again, in a limited way. The MFC used to be part of the MCC, and was run as part of the MCC. This stopped in 1980 when the MFC and MCC split and the MFC become a public company limited by guarantee. The two re-joined in a limited way in 2009. The MFC is now back being a 'sporting section' of the MCC but we are still a public company run independently of the MCC. Essentially we have gained the rights of being a sporting section of the MCC without loosing our independence. Kind of like the best of both worlds.

    Now all the MCC need to do is provide us with a training base in Yarra Park and we will be fully back where we belong!

    Its the same in New York. When the Rangers (ice hockey) team win they light up the Empire State building in Melbourne Footy Club colours.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
