I was reminded once a week by my Collingwood supporting colleague that this man would be an absolute disaster for the club as he left the pies in disgrace.

Has to take a massive amount of credit for our 2021 premiership and his key role now is to make us a financially powerful club that has its future in the league well and truly secured for decades, much like Richmond has over the last 5 years.

If ever there are talks of a VIC club re-locating again, I want us to be so far down the pecking order we're not even remotely considered.

On-field success will gloss over the reality. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

You despise Pert and have had a few cracks at Bartlett along the way. You’ve implied some inside knowledge. A few posters have asked what you know and got crickets.

Whats you're beef with Pert? What do you know that we don't?

I reckon you've just got an over-active imagination

Well from all the evidence that I have witnessed since Gary Pert joined the Club is a man with a vision and on a mission to make us a bigger, better and financially sound successful club. To be totally honest I initially doubted that he / we could achieve those goals that the club set for us But here we are.

I remember when Richmond set their goals , targets and vision 6 or seven years ago and I thought yeah, sure you will and they did.

So you need men and women at your club or business that have a vision and know how to go about achieving it and for that I will always have a special place in my heart for Perty and the rest of the team that helped us achieve our most important 13th Premiership.💕❤️💙

Also I will they are as important and special as the players and coaches.

We aren't there yet so let's not get complacent but there is a very determined atmosphere and resolve to continue the pursuit of excellence and the highest of standards and results.

Go Dees and thanks to everyone.

The selling isn’t the problem. The problem is supply.

What  are you saying JJJ that the supply was under forecast for the demand ?

we haven't sold out in all categories but some very popular lines if you look at the comments in Merch/memorabilia.

What other than a general comment with no details can you back up with info and figures.

In addition what profit results has the Club made from merch/ memorabilia that you are aware of?  Or against the  Club budget forecasts?

Yeah, laugh it up - fortunately the playing group are insulated from Pert. He doesn’t live our values & I eagerly await his departure.

You seem alone and isolated Mach 5 with your wildly unsubstantiated views.

Time to fess up with details and the allegations you are alluding to without detail or shut up. Perhaps you are used to going solo and looking sad well that's not the view any real fair dinkum 2021 Dees fan is possessing in Sept and Oct after our astonishing breaking drought 13th premiership.

Moreover 2022-2030 is a watershed opportunity to elevate our Club to the power of former years ( 40,50 and 60's ) and really it's laughable that someone as small minded and bitter as you (Mach5) can in anyway make his comments be maintained with any truth ( without details especially) to the overwhelming avalanche of the might of our deserved and potentially sustained success.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
