Surely whoever sent this to The Ox to pass on to Goodwin is a Demonland member.

Free speech and all that, but a pretty dramatic reaction.

Guess we're back to 39,999...


"I'm not proud of this club and the excuses and promises after every loss".

 

As a supporter, I am not proud that one of our so called supporters would jump ship 7 games into the season (and chop up his membership), and blame the loss squarely at the feet of a coach 7 games into his tenure. 

After the last 10 years we've endured, and comparing where we are now as a club to then, I hardly think now is the time to be chucking a tantrum! 

I feel a little bit sorry for him - he obviously missed up beating Hawthorn last year.

The grammar reminds me a little of Deeluded. But I suppose he didn't use various fonts and colours so it can't be him.


Over the past 25 years I have certainly had enough opportunities to write such a letter.

But I live in hope that the wheels will keep turning.

I have only ever supported Melbourne, and will continue to do so till the end.

The sentiment regarding JKH and selection policies this season is not far off the mark. However, handing back membership is soft, and in a way typical of the entitlement some fans have of their football clubs.


 

What a d****. Doesn't deserve to go for this team.

I'm really looking forward to this letter being brought up in the future when we hit some form.

I saw that on Twitter. I will admit that I get very little joy at games anymore. Travelling a few hours each way doesnt help. 

I have other reasons but.this will be my last year as a full member. I'll get a country membership most likely.

I just arrived home not long after hearing it on SEN, and all i can say is if don't want to be a member then off you go.  Poor little you, he also wants Simon Goodwin to give back the money he spent on the member ship.  TOTAL TOOL!

But we still don't win.

Of all the seasons this person decides to cut up his membership he chooses this one?

Must not have been a member in 2012.

You can't deny that compared to 10 years, or even 4 years ago, we as a club have come a long way.  Due to unfortunate circumstances (I'm not trying to make excuses, although I think we can point to these as being a big reason why we've lost some games), we've lost more than we've won this year.  The fact that we're unhappy with purely being competitive is a good thing, shows that honourable losses are a thing of the past for this club, and shows that we have higher expectations of the list and the club.

Thankfully, the National Draft is no longer the highlight of the MFC calendar of the year!

I have to say I agree with that first line dee-tox.

While all that is true GB we still don't win many and we are heading down a familiar path to the draft.

Shhh !!

They're beating up on some old geezer who had enough..

Hmmmm :unsure:

Lol :P

I'm with him on this one. How can we as supporters tolerate these kind of insipid performances week in, week out. We supposedly have a team of young guns, but when the going gets tough we crumble under the pressure. Hawthorn were on their knees and we still couldn't get over the line on the day. I will expect a response this week even against a top of the table Adelaide. We need to be ruthless! not the pretenders that everyone thinks we are. I'd say JKH days are done, not required.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
