That's not how it works though mate. 'Access' doesn't mean 'we are looking at what is on your phone and saving it' it means that the app has the ability to use those other apps on your phone.

Too "overdone" 

Has no one ever learnt KISS  ffs

Agreed there was nothing wrong with the old one, ease of use, believe it or not I work for a company who uses software first built in the 80's  it does what it is supposef to so they just update the user front end each Windows   their attitude it ain't broke

I love the general look and feel of the new app, but it is all a bit too busy. I would rather less volume and better content than to be flooded with half-arsed articles that say nothing, interviews with players who say nothing, and a sea of almost identical red and blue images. The old app was clearer and a better communication tool. The worst part is it is constantly crashing on my tablet, saying "MelbourneFC app needs to close".

I agree with the KISS comments above - effective simplicity always wins the day.

As for the younger person who said old people are so cute... if you get to your 50's you are going to feel an absolute dick for even thinking that.

As I said early the best info comes from Demonland IMO it does not have the same level of political speak/ censorship  as the MFC site.

But it may sell the information to agencies for a profit (a last we'll be in the black!)

If you're using the internet on your home connection, which has your name, address and details connected to the IP, if someone wants it, they can get it. Complaining about an app from a licensed professional sports team is just silly.

That may be, but the sad fact is that I doubt you and I are in their target demographic ...

Quite possible ....probable  !!

For mine if nothing else the app doesn't scale well on the phone. It's clumsy..  I'm reasonably able on a phone,for an old phart , the app is poor.

If clubs lose sight of the value of paid up members they have lost the plot.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
