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 .

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

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.

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.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
