No but they obviously have a comedian in attendance. 

Nice for Barrett to accept the invitation.

    The comedian is the MFC staffer who selected purple.

    The ex MRP rep should be a barrel of interesting laughs too !

    I've been to my fair share of corporate luncheons in my time. That is the worst panel of presenters I have seen.

    i hope the food and wine is good!

    Very professional function put on by the MFC, 53 tables 10 per table should be a highly profitably day. 

    Sensational day for all our sponsors and the event sponsor Bendigo Bank. 

    Footy Panel included - Caroline Wilson, Damo, Jimmy Bartel and sport media photographer ( sorry forgot his name - but he was also Jimmy Stynes brother in-law) panel was insightful, funny and gave an honest upfront view regarding the media and AFL footy in 2017. 

    1-1 with Mike Sheahan was Saint Nick Reiwoldt - brilliant interview, Nick is a superstar, talked about his career, toughest opponents and what the future might hold. 

    Small auction  - notable was a donated barrell of Tyrrells Wine sold for $6000

    Final Segment - Rodney Hogg - hilarious and got a real insight to the real man.  

    Best thing about these days 80-90% of audience are non-MFC supporters and they are tipping in close to $100,000 for our club. 

    Great to see ex-president Don McLardy there, plus a few other notable current and past admin team members still contributing to the club. 

    Well worth the admission fee - see you next year.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
