Has anyone else seen the footage of the brawl in the crowd after the siren. A dozen or more from both teams supporters but seemed centered around a Dees fan that was on the concrete floor with a number of Cats fans on top of him with boots being laid in.

Ugly stuff and a bitter pill to swallow after a gut wrenching loss.

Who said Melbourne supporters have no passion 

 

He majority of cats fans need to drive their 96 falcons back to Corio/Norlane and spend their money on their kiddo rather then spend it on bullet bourbons that convince them to whinge about ridiculous [censored]. 

 

We were close to that. Got out just in time by the looks of it. I had a few usuals that wanted to knock my block off, but the 6 foot 6ness continues to help me.


I ended up going to the game after saying all week I wouldn't be. I was standing in this area but left immediately after Tuohy's kick as I knew there was the potential for something like this to happen.

A few DLer's said I was overstating the potential for violence. It is real as there is virtually no security in the standing room area. What little there is (sometimes small females) are casual staff, not the more burley blokes or police that you see at the 'G.

I did notice the lack of security there as well. Bizarre. Imagine if Geelong had lost? Probably more chaos.

As I posted, my mate copped a 'Glasgow kiss' some years ago which plastered his nose all across his face. It was a horrible sight. Ross had said nothing. All he did 'wrong' was wear a MFC scarf.

I was treading on eggshells the entire game last night. Cats supporters believe they own the whole ground and can't accept the presence of opposition supporters.

I stand in M9 (old Bay 13) every MCG game. It's well patrolled (police walk through our section regularly). The Cats make more than $half a mil. each home game. They spend stuff all on security and employ part timers with no experience.

 

I was next it. Unless I missed something significant at the beginning the dees supporters were the problem.

Seriously ridiculous post

If true that we started the violence it’s a disgrace. And now we look like fans that can’t take a loss. 

Im heading over to AO next week and standing on the hill. Could be interesting

Good luck ? 

I'll be up in the Audi Club with my family... Not sure which Adelaide supporters are worse to be around?!? At least the w-anchors on the hill understand their existence is meaningless!

I support my team with great passion, and never have a personal thing to say, or make any action, toward any other supporter.

I went last night, was up the other end from this incident. As soon as Tuohy kicked the goal, I had some clown clap at me (basically in my face). It was totally unnecessary, I had not spoken a bad word, nor addressed or acknowledged him (or any other supporter for that matter) at all during the night.

He's lucky that I'm a lover and not a fighter. This sort of crap is asking for trouble. He would've been the first one to whinge if he copped one on the nose, which could've happened if I was someone different.

It's also worth noting that this is the 2nd or 3rd incident this season at a Geelong game. I know from my personal experience that their supporters ask for trouble with the way they act. I'm glad I'm better than that to respond with violence, but I'm not surprised that others do.

I have had enough of going to Kardinia Park. I don't deserve to have my night out at the footy ruined by idiots, just because I'm a passionate supporter in "enemy territory".

It's a feral backwater.

The word parochial doesn't scratch the surface.

I have friends on the Bellarine and all are not brushed with the same brine but Kittyland has taken over from Victoria Park. Boganville 

Fwiw , a few years ago I left the Cattery early after another obvious loss was looming and I provided some sort of retribution for myself by adhering some Demon stickers to cars that were obviously owned by opposition supporters.

Dead right!  Studies show that domestic violence is worse after football ( of all description) games are completed . This validates the studies

If you are going to post rubbish like that post a link to the study.

A mate of mine had his nose broken down there. Not sure if it was the same incident. 

Coward punch apparently. 

I hope we meet them again in September....

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.
