Will use this new app little.

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.

    Have just noticed how slow the new app is, scrolling speed is terrible.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
