I have a few mates who are Tigers members they say you have to have a reserved seat or stay home and watch the TV. I have been a member for most of the last 50 years however when the MFC membership exceeds 50k I will only by a 3 Ā - 5 membership and only go to the games against interstate teams. It is just too hard at any game against Tigers , Collingwood or Essendon.

25,000Ā  Melbourne fans and 2,012 GG . ONE SHORT!Ā  Missed it by that much.Ā  Ā NO we won't.

Dragging my boyfriend along so make it 27,001. 13 GC supporters, 26,988 MFC supporters and 1 disgruntled partner.Ā 

Jaded,Ā I'm sure you could easily find a half decent Melbourne supporting boyfriend to go to the football with you to watch the mighty dees if the current one doesn't have the good grace to go along to the G with a smile on his face.

Most of the good ones are gone but there must be one or two left.

Sunday Twilight and on Free to Air

I am betting itā€™sgoing to be cold....

20,000

320 isn't twilight it's late afternoon


Is the worst time for a game imho. Invariably many other commitments on a weekend..esp a Sunday.

Why would one want to go to aĀ zoo more than once a year if that?

Ā 

I love a 3:20 sunday game.Ā  Can get up, get the family stuff done, out for lunchĀ and still make the game.Ā  then after can kick on for a couple of sneaky sunday night beers

Just received an email from the kiddies school. Ā AFL have given them some free tix to the match, Ā so looks like they are trying to get some numbers along. Ā Good luck with that!

I'm not sure how my presence impacts on the numbers - I take one seat and my guts flops over onto another.

I've seen the attendants try and 'contain' you when there's been a big crowd. It ain't pretty, Uncle.

I found an old truss at the local opp shop Moonie - I'll give that a try.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ā€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayā€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0ā€“4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demonsā€”but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
