    Such a great photo, Satyr. But it looks like you've been tied up with some rope. If nothing else, if anyone wants to label all Melbourne supporters as conservative, Range Rover driver-types, we can just show this photo of you as Exhibit A.

    Agreed!

    And on that irksome topic of 'typical' conservative Melbourne supporters; I (mis?)spent my youth in the punk/skinhead scene where generally sport is not a highly rated pursuit or interest. Yet I discovered heaps of fellow Dees fans, closeted or not, who despite their anachronistic anti-establishment tendencies love the Red and Blue! 

    As a kid in 1980's/90's outer-eastern suburbia surrounded by fans of successful clubs (Hawthorn, Essendon, Geelong, etc) at school, it was naturally rebellious, even masochistic, to choose the MFC. To back the unfashionable perennial underdog - losers, even. I reckon that ideal is appealing to all sorts of types from all walks of life. And lends itself nicely to the misfit, anti-social approach of the punk scene I and other lifelong Dees fans immersed themselves into in our youth (you know who you are).

    It goes to show the cliche of elitist, private school, Range Rover-driving, Grange-swilling, Portsea-polo-attenting, yuppy Dees supporters may have some truth, but is far from the reality.

    Stereotypes only matter if you let them bother you. 

    I barrack for Melbourne. I was also born in Melton South (not exactly a den of the privileged) and I went to state schools all my life. I fell in love with the Dees because of blokes like Balls Grinter, Steve O'Dwyer, Big Jimma and Allen Jakovich (though he came later). The whole blueblood thing has never appealed to me.

    I am interested @Deemented Are Go! about the number of Geelong supporters in that neck of the woods. I noticed myself that they are about when I lived in Ringwood (occasional bumper stickers). Geographically didn't make much sense but I guess winning does help. Not so much Essendon.

    But you were right about the Dawks. Come 2010 when I lived there, they were everywhere.

    I've actually toned down as I aged, in late 60's thanks to slavishly copying Noel Redding and his hairstyle and my lack of height, I was often mistaken for a fluorescent dandelion, until I saw sense, threw my peace and love outfits away and joined the military

    Yeah I just remember heaps of Geelong supporting families in my primary school days. I played a game of little league at Waverley, Melbourne v Hawthorn 1989 , round 19.  The majority of kids on my team (Croydon North FC) were Geelong and Hawthorn. We had to wear the MFC strip much to my delight and their horror. 

    We won the little league game (I kicked 0.2 from the forward pocket) , but Melbourne lost to Hawthorn in the seniors. I’ll never forget we sat as a team to watch the last quarter and I was outright bullied by the other kids  as the game slipped away. I lost my taste for little league but strengthened my resolve as a Dees tragic: me against them kinda stuff.

    Kids are brutal!

    This brings me back to when are great Jimmy Stynes was just a raw Irish lad and still learning our rules and at that s*#$ hole Wavely park. When the great one went over the mark.

    Coming home on the train it was packed with the red and blue.  One guy started to sing our great club song and i kid you not we all joined in, even though we lost we came together to try and lessen the pain.

    As the train pulled into Flinders street station there was this girl who was a dawk supporter and as my boyfriend at the and i were making away off the train she shoved that stupid dawks scarf into my face, i said if you don't stop it you know where that thing will end up, she tried it again and my boyfriend grabbed so i couldn't shove it in it's rightful place.

    I hate them of all the teams in the AFL bunch of BLEEPS!

    So yer i feel your pain.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
