I support the club, I might joke every now and again that they're trying my patience and  that I might not renew, or burn, my membership, but it's a slight exaggeration. ?

If they traded Hogen, Petracca and Brayshaw with Watts, that might push me over the limit. ?

    Not a trick and this is probably not the venue to ask that question which is why I will also pose the question on the Demonland Facebook page.

    They have kicked me in the guts many times over the last 46 years...

    But I am still there.

    They will kick me in the guts again over the rest of the journey...

    But I will still be there.

    Only an Essendrug type thing would make me walk away... but only until those that did it where removed and punished...  then I'd be back.

    Why? Because my heart beats true. I have demon blood running up and down my veins, carrying it to my great big red and blue heart.

    There is no football without the MFC. There is no point watching football without the MFC. Without the hope of hearing 'Grand Old Flag' then it's just a bunch of guys in shorts and silly tops chasing leather. But with that hope... it is the greatest game ever made.

    I live in the country, cost in time and money is always a consideration but I've airways been a member. I use to travel 2 hours each day for work daily, now only 40 mins but now I'm a casual so money is a big factor. So while it wouldn't solely make up my mind, if they traded Viney and or petracca and I was getting sod all shifts it might swing me to down grading out dropping for a year. 

    Never done it yet to.

    I don’t care who is traded but the club as a whole are on there last chance with me, either make finals next year or not another cent from me till they do.

    I've supported the MFC for 65 years, C stands for CLUB.

    I've therefor seen quite a few people come and go, players, coaches ,admins , etc, all having their input which is greater than mine.

    I count myself lucky that in my latter years I've got the opportunity to be a member of Demonland , which allows me so much more  MFC involvement. Compared to Saturday nights Sporting Globe its a big step up.

    So watts my point ? The thread question should have included a CLUB alternative which is always greater than the team perspective .

    In light of one player commanding 259 pages I think its a salient point.

    RDB and the Redfox moving on were really big topics in times gone by and would have commanded more than 259 pages in  retrospect

    In conclusion , despite his buzzcut, I suspect Goody is a redhead and I hope he gets as many flags as the last one !

    There seems to be a lot of sentiment online that a "supporter" won't buy a membership if player X is let go?

    In this case player X is of course Jack Watts. The Melbourne Football Club posted a post on Facebook plugging the purchasing of your 2018 membership and the majority of comments center around people claiming that they won't purchase a membership if Jack Watts is traded.

    Do you subscribe to this? Would you not buy a membership based on a players retention, trade or delisting?

    As far as I’m concerned. Those who don’t buy a membership bcos Watts was traded can.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      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?
