I'm not sure how this helps the players during the game.

Before the game and half time ?

and may be a feed to interchange bench

    I wish the MCC could set up a live feed, to Perth and fans could go to the G to watch the game?

    Great idea. Trouble is the cost to the MCC,  of having the ground open and secured and staffed. Then again if everyone paid $10 they could get thousands there.

    This is where we are disadvantaged by not having a home base.  Other teams can set up screens at Punt Rd, Vic Park, Western Oval etc etc etc.

    It seems the club is looking for a suitable spot to set up the live feed and show vision to the team. 

     

    Edit:  SEN just interviewed Mahoney and he said venues to watch the game:

    • Fed Square
    • Sporting Globe at Richmond
    • Sporting Globe Ferntree Tree Gully
    • Casey venue (didn't hear where)

    I guess vision to players will be from one or more of those venues.

    I hope it gets across the line! Nothing would please me more than beating Meth Coast.

    I wonder if Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Farmer can get a movement going, the official 'Freo supporters who are ok about Melbourne and hate the Eagles' seating area.

    Just imagine the ruckus! :D

    Yes Jeffy yes, that exactly what we need. Any little advantage we can get to take their focus off the game should be explored.

    Remember that tablet set up in front of the bench i mentioned on the podcast. Maybe instead of key statistics and messages and tactical information it could show a feed of the sporting globe?

    (by the by i said on the podast that i assumed most clubs would have something similar. Perhaps they do but i have looked for it at our games, on the replays and other televised matches and have not seen any other examples).

    That still boggles my mind! Must be some decent binos!

    What about hiring a Jumbo flying over the Ground??

    Nephew used my codes, and got tickets for 4 people, up behind the Dees cheer sqaud.

    Lucky he is with a couple of  mates who can go a bit, as his mouth is Shrek sized when the Dees are playing.

     

    Hopefully we can get enough voices there to be heard.

    I think the ferals over there will lift our players and they will soar higher than the Eagles. Maybe it will be burnt wings!

    So apparently Neil Mitchell has spoken with someone at channel 7 that is prepared to work with the club to ensure that the broadcaster focuses on a select group of Demons fans for Goodwin to refer to for motivation - considering how negative the environment can be. 

    They're called a cheer squad? And the dude sporting Woewodins hair style looks to be the prime motivator

    Our Cheer Squad are more than capable of matching West Coast for enthusiasm. I have seen them go wild quite a few times.

    This is hilarious.

    Someone suggested as a joke on a Facebook group that we all buy tickets and not attend. Mitchell has caught wind and run a story about it.

    I hope the West Coast fans are louder than they've ever been.

    Our guys will love it.  You can not intimidate this Melbourne team, you bozos!

    The bias of the West will come through the umpiring decisions, one fears.

    Do the Freo Dockers have a forum? Might be an idea to engage the purple army to join the cause and use up some food those tickets to support the dees.

    It’s all over the evening news here as well. 

    Eagles supporters labelling it as “bad sportsmanship” the clowns.

    I just love the last two games, both times the crowds were amazing. 

    I think a lot of people would go to the G to watch it on the big screen, just a thought.

    What a great idea! Free snacks for all Freo supporters at the Optus Oval in Perth if they wear Red'nBlue on the day.

    Considering they're on the same network 6PR and 3AW having a feud has about as much legitimacy as a WWE match. They would have cooked this up the moment Melbourne - West Coast was confirmed.

    These Western Australian muppets should boo themselves for being sucked in by such obviously artificial outrage.

    And I've seen them be rather disappointing more that a few times too.

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
