He did after all pay for the privilege.

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!

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.

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.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
