GAMEDAY - Round 5

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

As stupid as this sounds, Vickery worries me a bit, we seem to have a lot of trouble with tall forwards.

I would be absolutely staggered if that's the case.  Cannot be true.

I have found if you go to the ticket box at the ground the person will often sell you an admittance ticket.

[Little Goffy 14,791]

I have this awful, disheartening sense of confidence. I really feel like we will win, and win well, which obviously means we are doomed.

We're riding on a paradox - if we're the favourites, we'll lose, so we shouldn't be the favourites, but then when it is changed and we're not the favourites, we should win, making us the favourites.

Quantum theory comes into play here. Until the final siren of any given game, all Melbourne supporters should maintain the emotional state of BOTH "We will win for sure" and "We're gonna get smashed", and also plan their after-match accordingly.

usually an hour before the game mate.

[Gorgoroth 13,188]

I think team sheets happen two hours prior to kick off... could be wrong tho

That line would work better if we were playing Geelong.

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Woke up in a panic thinking I've missed the game and we lost. 

Today is the opportunity, the prime time opportunity to prove to everyone, ourselves especially, that we have progressed. That we have improved. That we are no longer a bottom side in this competition. 

We need to win because on paper we are as good as our opponent. But on paper it also says that we haven't won 2 in a row since before I had grey hair (courtesy of Melbourne). 

Its time. Go Dees! 

[CityDee 738]

As are most games winnable this year for every team in it I hope we give effort like the north game and it will take care of its self .

Does anyone know how I can buy general admission tickets

Are you not a member? Or is it for someone else?

Checking with the ticket sales outlets about tonight's game the GA allocation is exhausted, so sounds like a big crowd.

I am a MFC member for home games and am trying to bring my daughter, but the only tickets available are allocated seats, so if we buy one of these we can not sit together.

Does anyone have a suggestion how we can sit together while using my membership?

 

buy your daughter a membership outside the ground at the mfc tent, even if it is only a three game membership

problem solved

We have to be ready for a hungary tiger team tonight but if we can start like last week that would be brilliant.

 

 

A tiger all the way from Budapest?

Dear Melbourne,

Please don't suck tonight.

Sincerely,

Scythe.

Destiny entirely in our own hands...

this is where the climb starts Roosy

Just Do It

[Trisul 674]

Need something to pass the till until the bounce.  Last quarter vs GWS will do nicely.

2 wins seem so insurmountable for this team. We need to win this, for nothing else but to get that damn hoodoo off our backs.

That being said, we are going in with some good form. Jeffy is back which gives us some better firepower up forward. Lids and Maric are playing their first game, so hopefully they are underdone. Wattsy is in good nick. We have a pretty good record against them. Going in as under dogs is far better for us.

That and its my birthday. Already had a few, so this will just top off a great day. Any chance to see those puffed up tuggers fans come crashing back to reality.

[Deestroy All 14,266]

I feel sick.

Please beat them, and look good doing it.

[Bang Bang Bang 5,850]

Deledio out, Townsend in

Despite our good form lately i still cannot get my confidence up.. I still worry about the Melbourne of old..

 

And there lies the problematic problem of the MFC supporter.
