Tried? The MFC wasnt interested?

Think the club was interested - But the key principle is it’s a business group - it does the work ie golf days, winery tours, day at the races, interstate trips to support away games and the target profit margin is 100k per event. 

Not every supporter is business minded so may have not recognised the opportunity - so we moved on elsewhere - no big deal.

Information information information. Wasn’t that what you use to spruik on Bigfooty before you copped a permanent ban for being a troll?

Hold on a minute Jib, my uncle and his family are Richmond members. Still, no argument from me.

If it were your mother in law that was a Richmond support, there'd be no need to '...hold on a minute...'

Nah I just go to the functions - great fun, you get to watch the footy or play some other sport. Golf, cricket etc

The players love it - they recognise they are only an injury away from ending their footy career and potential starting a business career - often when they are injured they hang around of their own free choice, as do the coaches etc etc 

It’s just another way to enjoy the footy. No big deal.

Oh we’re from Tigerland....

Stop calling yourself a Demon Supporter, because clearly you are not. 

Supporting Richmond Business groups is fine, if you are one of them...

You’re having a laugh right? The MFC Coterie supporters club fulfills exactly the same ‘business niche’ you suggest and has been in existence for 75 + years. If you and your business minded friends were such diehard MFC supporters why not join that group instead of going to the Tigers?

Huh? Seems really odd, Dees fan who supports the Tigs “business group” because the club wants to support it. 

I reckon he’s the bloke when we walks into these Rich functions everyone goes “ah fk old mate is here again, don’t let me get stuck talking to him..”

Did you know he also worked for the club during the Bailey and Neeld eras? Is there anything this guy hasn’t done?

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
