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.

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.

That line would work better if we were playing Geelong.

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! 

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?

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

I believe its actually 90mins...

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


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.

I feel sick.

Please beat them, and look good doing it.

And there lies the problematic problem of the MFC supporter.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
